    I’m very proud of myself. There was no wood here at 8am Saturday. Finished 1 hour ago. 31 ft x 52”. This came from one Burr Oak that was chunked out in December. [​IMG]

    Split right into my oversized double wheeled barrow, go stack and rest for 10 minutes and drink some water. Repeat over and over.

    Nice work. Always very satisfying putting up a nice stack of wood.

    Take a bow , We all know that stacking takes time.
    Looks great

    31 ft x 52 inches ; how deep? Get that number and figure out the cordage.

    It’s a single row for now. Wanted to build a fence for our GoldenDoodle puppy.
