How many board feet did you consume in the stands. And what's the height? If you don't mind me asking..

Counting 2x4's there're 22 in each stand, looks like 18" long so (18x3.5x1.5)/144 = 0.66 board feet x 22 = 14.33 x 4 stands = 57.75 board feet. More to the point, 22x18x4 = 1584", divided by 12 = 132', divided by 8= 16 1/2 2x4's 8 feet long. The stands are 11 boards high, but they support from a wide point, so I'd say they lift ~10 boards high x 1.5" per board or 15". You can also make those where they stack, layer by layer....

How's my math, Ryan?
