:D Hi maineshops, I try to keep my stickers in between the lumber :lol: All jokes aside, I keep them in a sticker rack by the mill. Don't have any pix of it. Another way I do it is to put 4x4's down then a row of stickers, then 3 stickers between between each layer so they can be drying. I make all my stickers 4' long and I use the side cuts to get my stickers from. However,... I don't use any stickers that are not 100% clean wood (no wayne on them). I make all stickers 4/4 x 4/4 x 4'. When you make your stickers, you always end up with some odd ball size sticks too. I keep a bunch of 2' footers around for use when stacking small wierd size lumber as well. Hope this helps you out. 8)

I have a rack suspended from a loft behind the mill and I cut the stickers the same as Randy here,, and I try to keep the stickers nice and neat and organized in the rack,, but my helper sometimes doesnt see the use,, {Shhhhhh Robin }

I also have another ground rack out front near the parkin lot, where I keep stickers also,, but in that rack, I sticker the stickers, cause they can get rained on

I have stickers " sticking " everywhere. If mine arent being used in a pile then my kids are usually beating down a tree somerwhere with them or building a fort in the woods. I need a rack..., or less kids.
