DelBurner said:Second delivery from this guy arrived today. It looks smaller than the last "cord". It's not much drier as the guy had promised. Maybe it will be better next year.
How much wood do you think this is? A full cord? I can update after it's stacked.
DelBurner said:Welp... In my possibly ignorant view I'd call it a cord. I do think I got more with the last load though... which was my first delivery.
I think this is about 16' x 5' x 1.5' (average). That's 120 Cubic Feet right? Not the 4x4x8=128 that a cord should be, right?Well I did burn about 8 pieces before stacking.
Lots of splits are two feet, but several are only 1 foot. I'm guessing the average is 18".
I started stacking as tight as possible, but I only have so much patience to stack something that I will just be unstacking or burning soon anyway.

Sounds like you will be doing a lot of seasoning this summer. Ouch.
I don't know if you can see the sideways picture, but I'm probably going to have two or more cords drying up on that left side of my garage this summer too. It will require restacking, but I wonder if I can fit three or more. I guess the more wood I put up there, the less air it will get. It's already restricted by being right between two garages.
I thought I was learning how to burn wood, not season it!
