Looks like you have a lot of material outside to make more blocks.

Yes indeed. Part of that pile is the 90' oak that smashed its way through my shed.

Update: I got a set of Race Ramps 12" 2-section wheel cribs, which weigh about 3 lbs each Now I don't exhaust myself lugging in the wood. With a Daytona long-reach low-profile jack, I can use the diff to get it up onto one 6" section each side at the rear, and then individually under the front sill jack points to get each front wheel up onto the same one section. I don't think I can use two sections with my current jack. (I can use the full 12" if I lower the car from the lift.)

I have the Arcan XL2T that's great. It has a 2 1/4" min height and a 24" max reach with a 2 ton capacity. Its heavy as hell but I only paid $150 for mine on OfferUp brand new.
