Re[2]: Blue Stained Lumber

[Guest guest]

Thank you Live. I only have about 20 birds now and am giving most to

another breeder this spring since I can't do the work anymore. I used

to chop fresh pine for them, but it's too hard to lug the mitre saw

out these days. These shims come from a mill where they do chop up the

raw logs. I'll have them take it back. I didn't know they were

treated.
