As I have a tendency to miss obvious solutions, and sometimes overthink/overengineer things.. figured I'd ask here. Last night I cut up some 2x8 into about 15" lengths and stacked that under the tongue jack, still not enough. What I'm thinking about doing it nailing/glueing up a larger block from 2x8's by placing 2 side by side and then 2 on top of those with the grain the other way, nail and glue and repeat until I've got a large enough block.
The overengineer in me thinks I should try to make the 'uber block' plumb.. The lazy in me thinks..meh... it's only going to be 14/15" tall or so and with the wheels properly chocked should be fine.
And of course maybe I'm missing the easy solution. I do have some stumps in the backyard of various sizes (one I use for chopping might be perfect)..
Any other suggestions? We plan on using our new trailer a lot so easy hook up is a bonus....
