    I say 6-7 cords. The pile is loose-thrown, so there's more air there than would be if stacked neatly.

    Rule of thumb I was taught years ago, when firewood is split but not stacked figure 192 cu. ft. to a cord. Using the 1344 sq. ft. /192=7 cord. but no matter it was free and will heat nicely.

    Still stacking. Should be done tomorrow. Based on what's stacked, I'm gonna guess it's about 7 cords. ish. :D

    We'll see. But for now, it's :cheers: time.

    Results are in.

    120 lineal feet, 5' tall, wood 16" long on average. 6 cords and change. Thought there would be more. Neighbor must be stealing. Time to get game cam out.

    Oh, and time to resume trolling craigslist free ads. Shhhh. Don't tell wife.

    Rough guess is 30 cords stockpiled. No, I don't have a hoarding problem.:tears:

    You do have a hoarding problem and the first step like any addiction is admitting it like most of the rest of us here. Not that we are looking for a cure but being able to talk about it and knowing you're not the only one is a big part of keeping your sanity. Now go ahead and admit it and then maybe we can help you out by showing you that you are not alone. Keep in mind talking to others that suffer from the same aliment is a good thing.

    I can control my habit. I only burn when it's cold. That makes it ok, right?
