What did you buy this week?

Nice wood 4570, looks like 800-900 BSF? What's the planned use or is this for "future projects"?

We had several black walnuts in PA on the farm - 18-24' straight logs x 24-30" at the butt - in 1970 sold them for like $800 a tree - but timber prices have dropped for walnut, cherry and veneer lumber in the last 10-15 years.

That could make beautiful furniture.

Went to Costco earlier today.
Intention was probably aboot $4-50.
Ended up over $400.
That place sucks money out of my pockets like a large commercial vacuum.
Other than groceries and some bits and bobs their is nothing to get excited aboot.

Wife and i went out to eat, then she wanted to hit costco for 5 items. Full basket later and $285 less in wallet. Im not sure she got the 5 items she needed.

We measured it to be 420 bf although we measured the 6/4 boards as 1” so the count is a little higher. It’s for “future projects” as in probably laying around in the way.

I went there for a couple bags of pistachios and came home with two TVs

My dad and I cut down a bunch of black walnut and had it sawed & dried. We then put it down on the entire first floor of our home. Looked amazing. Did the dowel pegs, too.

Neighbour down the road is moving next month so selling darn near everything to reduce moving costs. Picked up a lawn tractor lift in excellent shape. Will be used to weekly to lift the mower up so scrape the underside instead of taking the deck off to flip it over, or firing up the tractor to lift it up.
