I have time and temperature data pulled from a PDF datasheet (using PDF connector to get the data in to Power Query).

Essentially every 2nd column needs to stack on its predescessor while keeping the pair-wise relationships intact. I would appreciate any ideas here. A picture should help (what I have versus what I want):
Import from PDF looks like this:

@pstaggers One way is to create 4 queries. The first three select columns 1 & 2, then 3 & 4 then 5 & 6. The fourth query is an Append query that appends the three to one another. You only need to load your 4th query.
Thank you @Greg_Deckler . Just the trick! Also, I found that I had to rename all columns to Column1 and Column2 (or Time and Temperature) in order to have the append just end up as two columns.
@pstaggers Good call, yes, I forgot that step!
