Rent a Zip car, run out to a HD in Jersey, get them cut and be home by supper time.

Only downside is the $15 toll to get through the Lincoln Tunnel.

(or)

"Handsaw, handsaw, handsaw" (say it 3 times fast, and it kind of sounds like a handsaw!)

(or)

"Dad, can you cut me a couple and ship them over-night?"

All good options. Last one ain't gonna happen tho.

Well, you know that pallet will need to be secured to the 4x4s, so might as well pack up a drill, some bits, a driver and sockets for the lags and ship them with the power saw. Or maybe just surprise her with a fully equipped visit.

I made a vertical receiver mount for my little inverter stick welder …

Way too fancy ... can't wait to get across the border for a visit! One of my guys who lives in Toronto has been traveling for business to US a couple times and boy what a process.

Wait - I thought you got rid of the sandblasting cabinet Terry??? That pieced looks sandblasted to me.

And very nice as always.

Nice paint job?

I did, Dave. The sandblast cabinet is gone. The process just seemed too painstakingly slow for my tastes.

OG is correct !

Update on my daughter's Manhattan pallet project

She's had to get up at 6am (horrors!) to sand and paint on her building's rooftop patio when no one is around.

Good for her! Looks nice. I don't think my daughter has ever seen a sunrise Lol.

To me it looks like she is following in her father's footsteps. Doing what it takes to get the job done!
