Larry, I have a building, friends nickname the Mini menards warehouse. That's where I keep all my used lumber. Friends need wood, they come to me first. They also bring me their scrap lumber to store. I get a chuckle when a friend asks if I have any scrap plywood. I ask them what size do they need? 4x8 foot. I tell them that's not scrap, that's a full sheet.
I agree, nothing like going to the warehouse and getting something free to fix things with.
I know a man with a small sawmill. When I have a large tree removed from a yard, he will pick up the log and then bring me some of the lumber. I have about 100 feet of red oak and 150 ft of tulip poplar. I dried the poplar in rafters of pole barn. Some of the poplar boards were 19 inches wide. Daughter made a table out of.
I also have scrap RUSTY metal stored in another building for welding projects. Same thing, people need metal they come to me. They also bring me their scrap which I sort out for welding projects and some I recycle.
I feel like a pack rat, I pack things someplace. I have a basement, pole barn, two 2 car garages, two 1 car garages, four storage sheds. Every spring and fall I get the urge the organize the rats nest. I either fill the dumpster or make a trip to the recyclers. Last trip to recycler made $120. So I hang onto things and I get rid of things too.
I have room to store my 4 tractors, many lawn mowers, kaw mule, generators and all my toys.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
