Just what the title says, has anyone here made their own table for different species of wood? Also for drying times?
Grizzly Adam , whats the BTU chart for? I refer to a couple different sites online when I have to go looking for info.
ahhh, ok. I'm not sure what you would do that for?? There are about 10 of them online, with all the wood types listed, weight, density and BTU's per pound and cord... What are you getting at/ what are you looking for or want to do? Your up to something ..... ? If it's any help, I have a VERY detailed spreadsheet I use for all my wood in storage, which tells me exactly how much wood I have, where it is from, species, when it was bucked, when it was split and stacked.
I'm always up to something. I've been doing some writing and am looking for a table I can get permission to use-- thought I'd ask my friends here first.
I think it was one of the women on "the other site", who showed a map she'd made of all her stacks and when they were put up. Pretty cool stuff when you have it from several sources and done at different times.
Like this? I have a spreadsheet to go along with this, show each stacks dimensions, calcs the cubic feet and cordage... then totals all. I've got 10.8 cord at the moment.
Right now, a short booklet/FHC resource on not ticking your neighbors off with irresponsible burning.
Great idea... thank fully, I only have 1 neighbor and he is the kind of guy would not care (and might not notice) if I burned his house down! Good luck! Maybe I'll put one together. If always find ones with western woods, and northern woods, never with just North Eastern woods. But you probably need all woods....
Sounds like a worthy venture for information but, how will you compensate for all of the variables involved in drying fire wood? I'm not a glass half empty kinda guy but you as well as I know that fire wood stacked out here in the open plains of Iowa is gonna dry quicker than that of those on the site that stack in a shaded back yard in a suburban environment. I could contribute to your data base but it would take a lot of info from others to find an average drying time for different types of wood I would think.
