JD, what's the deal with the hardware, and wood treatment, does the latter ACQ react with mill finish mild steel or something like dissimilar metals does in the galvanic series, in those instances you either have to create a bond breaker or other means to keep em separate, or use a compatible material.

CCA performs great, I have always wondered what dictated the change, I used to haul trailer loads from the plant in Athens NY and Holbrook in Albany, and even down south in NC many years ago.

Slivers, sawdust, leaching ? burning ? byproducts from treatment plants ? It seems that like anything else, handled properly there was no environmental issues, seems like an envirowhacko agenda item unless I've missed something.


That almost 4th floor, ( realizing most codes don't allow for wood framed structures with a 4th floor ) you must have found a way to frame that and provide the support you needed for same, I want to do that with a 20x32 pole barn, mostly for aesthetic reasons, but it would make a great observation post over my place being on a hill, was thinking of spanning the 20' wide part, posts are 8' o.c. figured a couple of timbers but the one side complicates it as I left 1 pole out to make a 16' wide door so that header would have to allow one timber spanning the 20' to bear on it, often wondered if it would work or just the heck with it, though I think it would work with the right size beams.

16' opening on right:

PS, nice work & kind of looks like a good amount of labor there, though you are right one person can do quite a bit and I'll bet certain pieces of equipment you have there were very helpful at times.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: JB Weld - by Staff. JB Weld is basically an epoxy glue that does an exceptionally good job of bonding to cast iron and steel along with several other materials. As I mentioned, it is so common that I have yet to buy a tractor that did not have JB Weld used somewhere. It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix. Finding where and how it can be used correctly is key to whether you are using it as an "inelegant hack" or an integral solution to difficult and expens ... [Read Article]
