    Fill it up. Empty racks are so unbecoming.

    As much as will sell. I have a hand full of regulars. The mild Winter here didnt help! It goes without saying i like hoarding/making firewood and it has gotten worse in the last couple years!
    AWHNR!

    SS more dead locust i had on hand. Made the actual stack 6' high so a full cord in each row. For reference, the end support is 48" overall and 42" from the top of the 2x6. IMG_2509.JPG
