A pallet bin? a pallet with welded pen wire as a perimeter. or 4 pallets squared off and a big ol heapin pile o uglies.
A nice thing about a Holtz Hauzen is that you can throw chunks in the middle hole. It will also be a great conversation piece.
Dennis is spot on with his reply, they make heat first. dont sit around long enough to care about

btw, I actually store most of my shorts in the dresser drawer. Some goes into the dirty laundry too.
1) Toss the punks, chunks and uglies on top of your normal stack . . . and if you have a tarp or anything covering the stacks you can use the punks, chunks and uglies as weight to hold the covering down.
2) Take Golfandwoodnut's advice . . . holz mietes are perfect for storing chunks and uglies . . . nice, large center hole for the outcasts . . . and the pretty wood is all on the outside where folks can see it.
3) Take Backwoods advice . . . well not his advice about his shorts being in the laundry . . . just toss them aside in a heap (I know some folks have built containers out of pallets or scrap wood) and burn them in the Fall and/or Spring . . . right now most of the wood I'm burning is punks, chunks and uglies . . . some of which was from my holz miete and some of which was just tossed aside in a heap.

My chunks and uglies go in the regular pile. On top, if they are seriously twisted. In the middle or on top, if I can make two short pieces (probably split) fill in the space of one regular piece. I just want it to dry so I can burn it. I can keep the pile from falling over wherever I stack the freaks.
