Stacker or flinger:

..now, granted this is not your everyday wood haul.....
....but if I had been fling'n instead of stack'n, I would
have been haul'n a lot less wood each trip.
With stack'n I was coming home w/just over 3/4 cord every trip.

 

Why can't you be both?

 

You know... not to sound high priced or anything but each of those oak blocks going in your stove must be like enjoying a great bottle of brandy every time.

 

Hee Haw, Hogan's heroes, Red Green and a stove full of hardwood sounds like a great night

 

I'm not high priced....I'm less expensive.
....not to be confused w/cheap.

I'll take this wood over the brandy any day.
It is hard to describe what this wood is like.
As I learn how to burn this wood, you sir,
are very perceptive.

 

Quite the contrary dear fellow. I should say that some wood is more than a treat to burn. The kind when it’s special and you having found it on special circumstances, leaves it to be richly experienced. Cheaply and creatively acquired!

 

This morning's mix of wood some stacked, basically too hold the FLINGERS in place. Lol

 

...so this is very disturbing to my OCD.
My first impression is this is ok....

but my deep sense is that this is just
fundamentally wrong.

I will talk quietly amongst myself....................

 

I really like the look of those wood racks you built with the plastic roof. Is there much to making one? Are they on a plastic pallet? It looks darker then the rest of the wood.

 

didn't know that square trees grow in the Denver Area. Makes for easy stacking!

 

Here is what I have been experiencing w/this wood.

 

Farmchuck they are quite easy to make.
Start with a heavy duty plastic pallet that looks like this.


Cut down a couple of wooden pallet boards to make 6 pegs to fit in the big holes like these.


Then


Fill with wood of your choice. I prefer Aussie hard wood.




You can add pallet strapping for long term integrity.


Then a roof made out of an IBC tote liner cut diagonally across the short side's.


Or if you don't have any IBC liners you can cover them with a plastic pallet slip sheet.


Then align them neatly to season.


Any fast-moving consumer goods manufacturer will likely have all the necessary materials. And if you know someone or approach them nicely they may be quite happy to let you take them for free.

Haha! Flacker!!!!

 

Thank thank you kindly sir. They are really nice looking. Don’t know If I’ve ever seen a pallet like those. I shall have to do some scouting. Do you then bring to your house with a tractor or something? Looks like they would hold about 1/3 cord ?

 

Ah I just saw the picture with the tractor. Sorry!

 

Just one of those "recreational use" trees they take advantage of out there!!

 

Same how I work. I will fling upon splitting into a pile. But that pile gets moved and stacked ASAP.

I'll fling into a trailer too, but only if I know it will all fit and I can't take more than one trip.

 

I'm a stacker, I'm a flinger, I'm a midnight arm hair singe-er
