Help with jack stand inserts

Hi guys,

I've never put up a car on jackstands before and I keep reading about how I need to insert a piece of wood between the jack stand and the jack point. Are you guys just inserting the piece of wood right between the stand and jack point, such that the car actually rests on the piece of wood and then the jack stand? How big is the piece of wood you guys are cutting?

A pic of it in action would help if possible. Sorry about the noob questions!

Well, if you see the majority of the posts he has, you realize that a lot of them aren't necessary. The posts generally involve only one word or don't contribute any new ideas to the thread.

Shameless attempt to boost post count?
