    Although, I'm sure I was breathing in the dust from the blocks.

    Let me see if I can find a pic.
    how many high did you stack? what did you use for a top?

    they problem is that those blocks would hurt anything the fall on cause they are so heavy. that's if something knocks them over.

    Why did you just quote yourself?

    Serious question........


    Also, yeah....I was talking about just putting 4 of them under the legs of a banquet table to raise it to an almost-acceptable height.

    One thing, though....they have zero strength for supporting weight on the solid sides. You need to put a small piece of wood over the "hole side" to support any real weight. Cinderblocks are heavy as sin, but they're remarkably easy to break if you just hit them from the right direction.
