    Getting there. Been putting the better btu wood nuggets/shorties in it for the most part.
    Sugar maple, honey lucust, mulberry and today some black birch. Maybe 2/3 full. IMG_2816.JPG

    I've been throwing the short chunks in between my rows of wood for some time now, plus every now and then, i'll grab a good straight piece of wood and split it up into nice kindling, that way later on when i get some wood, i'll have kindling worked into the wood pile as well. Its nice to come inside in the winter with a little kindling that's already split and seasoned, along with a couple of chunks of wood for the stove.

    Almost there. Some BL nuggets from yesterdays score added today. Four months worth of hoarding almost filled it up.
    Oak and hickory in another bin, lesser btu woods in another. Gets to be a logistical challenge when you hoard as much wood as i do with limited storage. IMG_3247.JPG

    With the nuggets/shorts from the recent BL scores its full. One cord of primo btu wood nuggets. IMG_3338.JPG IMG_3339.JPG
    Now have to figure out where to put the next bin for primo btu wood. Have to make one for the hickory and oak as well as the lower btu woods.

    Wil, you eventually burn the nuggets yourself, or sell, them?

    Wow. That's a nice bin. Lot of great wood. I'm gonna have to built some more bins or convert our old chicken pen. Got 2 dump trailer loads of different length rounds. 1008201007_HDR.jpg 1008201229_HDR.jpg Great hoarding as always, buddy.

    Pretty much the same idea on a much smaller scale. I call it my "Cookie Box".

    Very nice. Great job on using reclaimed wood. I used cull PT bought at big box store and 1x4 from a dismantled pallet.
