Nice work, you might as well get ahead so if the quarantine ever stops, you can go away and know you are set with wood!
We're doing good thanks I'm working 4/10's.. 3:30 PM - 2 AM.. per my request. They wanted to split the workforce, and I figured one less day of exposure is less chance of bringin it home to her. With her COPD, I do worry about this crap. I helped a coworker by felling a few trees at his place, and have a few slotted for the stacks here. Have some needed saw maintenance that I haven't gotten to yet. But, we're doing what we can. Stay safe brother.
Wow...weren't you up around 50-60 cord CSS at one point a few years back? That may mean that JRHAWK9 is the new cord king around here!
This is my 10 1/4 cord pile from this past winter which I got done splitting/stacking. Split/stacked every day anywhere from 2-4 hours per day and had it done in a little over 2 weeks. Hour meter on splitter showed 11.5 hours run time. I shut the splitter off when I stack.
I generally cover it up after I have enough stacked to put the big rubber roofing tarps I have over it. The tarps I have are around 25'x13'.
Yeah I had another stack over where my garden was that put me over 50 cord, but I'm not going to stack there anymore as we are planning on putting up a pole building if this quarantine ever ends....I used the last of that stack up this winter. But, if/when the pole building gets built, I'll be installing an overhang off the back side of it that I'll be able to put around 15-20 cord under, so there's that to look forward to.....
Great work, good looking stacks. I know about the old wood. Had some logs that were 2 yrs old. Finally got all that cleaned up late winter. Now we are trying to CSS as soon as it comes in. You and Joe got it done putting it on the ground and you and the boys got it did CSS...
Awesome stacks! Another plus on having that much is the ability to pick and choose what wood you add to it.
I don't have any recent photos of that though, just a spreadsheet telling me what I have based on the measurements. I figured my sig was enough, as I recently updated it. I actually went back and updated some of the stack heights, as we all know they shrink when they lose their moisture. So what was 5'8" when stacked 5-6 years ago are now around 5'. If I were to have left the heights as they were, I would have had even more wood "on paper".
