A load of lumber

This is the lumber I hauled home for this project. There are a number for sheets of Maple Plywood, mostly 3/4 inch, then some 1/2 inch and even a sheet of 1/4.

This is topped by a little over a 100 board feet of Maple planks 10 feet long and various widths ranging from 4 inches to 12 inches wide.

Then I ran out of the Maple planks and had to get another 25 board feet.
