I'm beginning to realize just how often the sawmill and my nearly endless supply of pine logs are the answer. I need to make level platforms to hold the lumber pallets when stacking lumber. Easy! Two beams for each station, leveled with whatever I can find to take up the space, and in the shade next to the sawmill.

In the present time, these platforms are working out great. I've milled a dozen or so logs since implementing the beam platforms. It's rewarding to look down the edge of a stack of lumber, and each layer looks straight.

JK Boots:

Hands down, without question, the best outdoor working boot that I have ever tried. They aren't cheap and they aren't inexpensive. The break-in period was brutal for me. But after some boot oil and a few working days for them to conform to my feet, I've never worked in anything as form fitting and comfortable.

My Lineup:

• O.T. Bison Canyon for everyday work
• Superduty Bison Shadow Roughout Smooth for earth work days
• The Buck Indigo Chocolate square toe western for days where quick on and off are valued

P.S. My teachers told me I'd never amount to anything bc I procrastinate so much. I told them, "Just you wait!"
