Post pictures of your woodpile/splitting area

Nice setup!!!

Just what is your delivery......oh......range.:msp_biggrin: Some hedgeapple would be sweet.

Believe it or not, that whole load was Oak. 2-cords... I've delivered 6 cords of Hedge to him already, a few months back... He has a nice OWB set-up... This is before we unloaded...

He uses about 14 cord per year, but says since burning mostly Hedge, it has cut back to around 12 by his estimation..

That's a dedicated stacking area for sure!

Ben, if ya catch Matt on just the right day, he's been known to deliver as far as WI!

Yup... I thought he did a great job on it... He's a math professor... I admire it every time I drop off there...
He's the only fella I deliver to... Everyone else has to come get it. Cept when the firewood fairy takes a notion to make firewood appear on someone's porch...

Or when a neighbor wants a load of logs...
Or when some chainsaw nut in WI wants a Hedge log just for fun....

Ok...
I drive around too much...
:amazed:

Ha, I love it !!! Nice boards ! Milled with what, a chain saw mill, or a band saw mill ? They look suspiciously like the cedar I milled with the Alaskan.

its all red oak

Here is my area all oak with some Hickory and a little Ash. I will move it up to the house on pallets when I start burning. I usually but 3 or 4 cords in a seasonView attachment 255070

I think I have found out what happened to the Sahara Forest.

With the burn barrel that close I'd be afraid of the Great Sahara Fire.

I'm not exactly thrilled having my stacks this close to the OWB.

Whew....I think I have scroll sickness.

I was gonna post a pic, but after seeing some of those stacks I'm a lil shy.

All I can say is WOW!

we split and load out , firewood seems too disappear if its split and allowed to lay to long it grows legs and walks

Yes it worked, that is of the water heater and tempering tank tied into the coil of the wood furnace.

........ who am I kidding. It was the work of Chuck Norris.

Looks pretty nice. Like how it is right by the OWB.

Woodshed

Thought I'd add my splitting/storage shed to the thread. I have a 250 acre farm nearby where I cut dead and down wood, so I wait until the weather is cool to cut wood. A weekly trip to the woods to cut firewood is a nice break from the daily grind, so I don't try to get way ahead on my wood supply. Photo is about two weeks old. I heat my house and woodworking shop with stoves.

That is a really nice wood shed. I don't live too awful far from you. I really like that area.

I think I might have lost some of my wood due to rot, I left it uncovered out in the yard all summer but I'm pretty sure I packed it in a little too tight up against a steel wall with no way for air to circulate, either that or the first wood I started collecting was about to rot anyway, but either way I did manage 4 cords of wood fro this winter so far and I have a little more to split

Thanks,Rudedog. I wanted to mention a couple of details about the construction for people getting ready to build a shed. The site has open southwest exposure, so it gets sun all day, and prevailing winds blow against the back of the shed. The vertical siding boards are 5/4 oak pallet grade rough cut lumber from a local lumber mill. I bought the lumber green, and screwed the boards to the framing, making sure the boards were tight against each other. this sometimes involved the use of bar or pipe clamps. When the wood dried, which didn't take long in the sun and breeze, the shrinkage created 1/4"- 1/2" spaces between the boards allowing air to flow freely through the stacked firewood, but keeping most of the rain and snow out. I cut dead wood, but the first few feet of a large long-dead oak is still wet from moisture being drawn up into the trunk. The shed allows this wood to dry out quickly, and keeps everything nice and dry.
