This is an oddball on how to lift heavy items in and out of a pickup.

...a friend gave me this idea so I cant take credit, but I do use this trick now!

Its as simple as a pallet ramp ...1 pallet, then 2, then 3, then 4 stacked. Then you can manuvere from there to the bed of truck. I can get by with just 6 pallets in a pinch, buts its all easier if you have about 10.

Too fertilize my garden this year, i hauled in 13 barrels of lemon rinds, 12 bags of (leaves/grass/and hopefully viable pecans), and two truckloads of cedar mulch to dress up my working paths.

Not counting drive time, i have over 20 hrs invested in this project

Note: Per the Wiki: "Any projects that are in the Food Prep and Preservation or Gardening realm do not count here in Oddball." and "The "Pro Factor": This is the number of hours it would take an expert to accomplish the task, with all the tools and materials in hand" so material handling for a garden does not meet the minimum criteria for the Oddball badge.

I was asked to fix a cut off saw for a friend. It needed a new starter rope and spool. Also the spring popped out of place and needed rewound and put where it belonged.
