    Yea
    Sometimes I think I should not be such a wood snob, but stacking 7' high in the shed, the "Super uglies" can make it unstable.
    & we have several fire pit fires thru the year, so it won't rot :)

    My uglies and unstackables usually end up on top of the stacks that are under the garage eves or are used to hold down the rubber covers. Its the stuff I burn first (shoulder season) and during the day when its a little warmer out and I don't need a lot of btu's

    Some of my splits some people might call uglies I put right in with the other regular snacks, never had any fall over because of that.
    The rest of the Uglies and all the chunky monkeys go in the wooden crates I snagged for free.
    I have a couple more that are not in the pics

    Welcome to the forum Life In Farmland

    Some gets stacked along with the rest of the wood and some get throne on top to hold down the old roofing we use to cover the wood.

    I have about 15 of these that are used for various things. 3 are full time shoulder wood and ugly storage. Usually stack half a cord +\~ by the back door and then move these near by as needed.
