Been grinding the last few weeks. Operation white pine is in full swing. Pics 1 and 2 are just the beginning of it. Much much more coming my way. Pic 3 is the big red oak I scored down the road.
I'm done with poles on the ends. When my ground heaves in the spring it pushes the poles up and some of my stacks topple on the ends. I think the criss crossed ends will solve that problem because the wood isn't held in by the poles. Time will tell. Knock on wood! LOL!
Nice stacks. BeechNut , my husbands phone was taking pics like yours, I took a qtip & tp with windex or rubbing alcohol to the circle in the back of his phone and it fixed it
