How about measuring it in my own height?  That is an accurate measurement right or at least closeenough.

This was the beginning of a tolling task that would end up taking 4 days to complete all together; this task is none other then sanding the siding.  Earlier in the summer a fewpeople took down Ty’s granary, which then became the recycled lumber for parts of our structure mainly the siding.  Since, it was being reused from an older facility it needed a little but of a new shine, and that new shine would come from the hand sanding each piece with the belt sander.  While we were sanding it we even put the pieces into piled to help with over using certain sizes f the lumber.  The groups that Lyle and I came up with were small, medium, and large.  A few days earlier we inventoried all of it so we knew how long the longest pieces were and how short the smallest were.  Our small pieces went from 2’ – 4’, large 14’ to 16’, and for those we were not to sure about as long as the piece wastaller then I was it was a medium.  So apparently, a high is actually a good indicator ofanaccurate measurement.
