Not sure if everyone will get this joke, but as someone in the construction business (and aware of the current state of lumber price increases), I thought it was hilarious.

I have few sheets of vintage OSB and a sheet 3/4" OSB tongue and groove underlayment stored and aged indoors, it looks like the day it was delivered from the lumber yard.
I'm willing to trade for a good condition 911 or XKE. After seeing the price of lumber this weekend at Home Depot, I have the kids wear white gloves and gently set any old lumber on mats so we don't scratch it. |

Perfect for rust repair. I'd go with the blue bugle head screws. Maybe 1" long #10 exterior flat heads.

It's no joke, we re-floored the porch at the lake shack last week, OSB that is normally $12-15 a sheet, was $42!!!

The price of lumber is so high right now I am thinking of parting out my house!
