Tree volume firewood calculator

[boisafeudunord]

I had quite a few requests for a calculator which could calculate wood or firewood volume from a tree. So I have built one similar to the original, outputs all the same information for the most part. But in your measurements you you can enter base and tip circumference, and height or length.

If doing many trees there is an average size you can use to try and get a ballpark figure on many trees.

Please let me know what you guys think and if anything should be added or changed.

That is pretty neat! Similar to what I have on my computer, using a spreadsheet.

As my firewood operation evolved over the years it became necessary to find a way to put some numbers into the production.
It started with "I cut a lot of wood" so that means what? "you pay me a lot of money"
Really? how much wood was cut? The profit margin on firewood is tight, as you expect.
So, one day I thought about it, and trees taper at a relatively consistent rate, so measure the middle, and use that, figure it as a cylinder, and you will have the cubic foot volume of said log on the deck.
I then paid the yard monkeys by the cubic foot actually cut, and it worked!
Also answered the question of how big was that load of logs? delivered.
My exp[experience has shown that between 90 and 110 cubic foot of logs, is a honest cord split n stacked....
