That's a nice pile oak you have there! looks like you might be using a splitter? I have a 361 with a 20" and 24" bar. I think it's a good all around saw for the weight. My friend has a 562XP and I think that also is a great saw. Both are good power to weight saws for general use.
Another perfect wood stacker using a laser to keep them straight & beautiful. LOL Your stacks are approaching Papadave's stature in beauty & perfection PapaDave's stack:
I stacked like that for years. I got tired of restacking when they'd settle/frost heave and fall over. Trying to push them back into place trying to stop them from falling over. Cross stacked ends even. Didn't look as nice as that though. Pallets is something new I started last year. I'm getting a LOT more practice now, too. Never had 12 cords of wood in my yard before. I feel RICH.
You are rich ! Money & heat & fun. Many here breaking the personal personal wood stack volume records I have more wood now 1/2 way thru than ever in previous years. It's fun & the $$ money makes it rewarding.
And another thing… "Age of a Hoarder isn't as important as the care the Hoarder has received. There a are a lot of great older model Hoarders still chewing up wood"… sorry, couldn't help it…
My old 028 is still going strong! That's why I bought a Stihl!!!! My 011 finally shot craps, but it didn't owe me a dime.....served me well for many years.
As for wood supply, I envy some of you guys who have so much room. I am 4 years ahead and that is all the room I have or ever will have. I would like to be like Dennis, if I had the room and be umteen years ahead, but I have to pace myself because I run out of room.
