Yup, got close to 3 cord in rounds, stacked next to the woodpile we're currently using. I figure come spring when it's all gone I'll pull the splitter over there and get it worked up and stacked.

I just can't leave an empty stack area to set there. Gotta fill it.

Put it on pallets to keep it away from moisture and help the airflow, when you stack dont put those large pieces face to face it lessens the air flow .
Keep up the good work .Just what I do but who am I ?

I have burned mostly pine so far this season and replaced it with elm, maple and oak. I started the boiler with 31.5 cord CSS and I'm fairly sure I will shut it off with close to 35 cord and none of it will be pine.

Went and cut a mixed load of Fir and Madrona today. Always happy when I can get some Madrona. Its the only real hardwood around here but they usually don't grow real big and aren't real plentiful. Also had my brother in law's mini excavator for a couple days and cut some small trees around my property. Best tool ever for handling wood. I think I'm starting to get 2 years ahead.

I think Im going to start looking for a small 4 wheel drive tractor with front end loader and backhoe attachment, it just seems easier with a machine, I was able to last winter buck up a couple large tree's using a minihoe, it made sawing unbelievable faster and my back didn't hurt at the end.
