Gloat ?
This past week at work a crew came in and replaced part of a roof =
over our roll stock room. They took out seven 16 foot 2X10's that had = pitch soaked into one side of each and left them by the maintenance = department. I asked the maintenance manager if they where scrap. He said = they where and I could have them if I wanted them. So I now have a new = deck on my utility trailer and a couple of short ramp's. So is this a = gloat or not ? Puff |

Pretty much anytime you are able to find something for free and make
use of it I would say it's a gloat. Now if you grabbed them and they sit next to the house for 18 months before you use them, not so much of a gloat. Good find Andrew |

Hey, if it was free and you got to make some stuff you needed/wanted, I'd say it qualifies as a gloat. |

Puff What I am wondering is if you had to transport those 16 footers. Most of our pickups would not be sufficient for that. How did you do it?? Got a serious truck or something? |

I used the 12ft trailer that was to welcome them as a new deck.
