Oh man!! I was hoping for a thread between these two sooner or later! :] !@#$%His eyes traced out the grain of the wood, and he ran a finger over it. The grain obviously followed the length of the two by four--it would be somewhat awkward to cut it like this, but he figured if he started out with the less convenient nonsense, all subsequent cuts would seem that much easier. He found a platform and clambered up on top. Crouching down, he placed one knee firmly on the edge of the two by four--the rest hung off over the ledge.
