much of my life has revolved around hay bales. by the time that above photo was taken, i had at least 10 years experience in stacking flatbeds on rough cow pastures. That truck is just going close by because it is only 3 high and center tie layer above that. Headboard has metal shackle with hemp rope tied on. as the stacker works along, you keep bringing the rope with you along the top of the stack. Get to the back of the load and hope off while using your weight to pull rope tight. Back of truck was another shackle under the bed for the rope to go thru, then back up to the loop half way up the back, pull rope a couple times then secure with 2 half hitches and load is tied before the driver can get out of the cab.

Long distance delivery was 8 layers high and that took much more stacking and a couple of tie layers

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
