  Treated wood question

I agree with the lumber yards. Forget the cement, I feel your asking for problems. Treated wood for the "under ground" would be my chioce of wood. I have a tree stand that was in the ground for more than 13 years now out in the woods, clay no drainage. Not a bit of shakyness in it yet. If you cut any ends though I would paint on a treating material to theat portion. I like the new woods and welcome it only thing I have my doubts about is if it will still have the wasp retarding properties that arsenic treated wood had.

  Treated wood question

Every now and then I hear a statement that just sticks with me. I like it and I will use it.
GRINDER just had a statement that was awesome. He said
"and build yourself some thing that will appreciate in value and not need maintenece for a long time."
(This was 4 years ago)
IE: A buddy down the road from me had a barn built on frost walls. We had a storm come thru and it took the barn with it! His isnurance company paid him to rebuild it. I can tell you that his frost walls that were 3' above ground was the best thing he had ever done when he originally built it. The re-build was so simple you would not believe. The best part is that his place was insured He was able to rebuild it with 12' side walls and it cost him nothing. AND he was paid to rebuild it.
Grinders idea and statement is very good and so true
