Hi there & welcome That might just be the most impressive wood shed I've ever seen! I tip my hat to you sir
Welcome to the hood intheBigWoods, you're gonna like it here I guarantee it. Your set up is nothing short of a work of art...your addiction may be beyond any counseling we may have to offer so my advice to you is...."Cut More" Nice to meet you.
Totally Impressed intheBigWoods! That display of planning and hard work is something to behold. Welcome to FHC! You've found a great place!! I can't wait to hear the answers to all the questions waiting for ya.
Great pictures of some nice work. Welcome aboard with that much wood and your weather you must be set for 5+ years.
WoW ... Love it! Welcome to FHC intheBigWoods ... Impressive pictures and lookin' forward to your inputs... and also congrats on your retirement...
Welcome! Love seeing your firewood stacks... Looks like you have quite a few flavors mixed in there.. I bet that John Deere and Speeco help with getting In the firewood.
Welcome to the land of the wooden heads! Now get out there and cut some wood, you ain't got near enough!
I woke up this morning feeling pretty good about my place in the wood universe. Then I saw your picsWhich I loved. Then I looked at my stacks and felt like a very small fish in a very big pond. Welcome intheBigWoods . Fantastic:stacke:
Awesome setup there! Beautiful stacks and sheds. What's the deal with those "T" uprights that look to be on your trailer?
Welcome to the forum intheBigWoods. Looks like you joined in a couple weeks ago and we're happy to see you posting now. As you can tell, everyone loves your wood sheddddddddddddddddddd.
Wow! You have quite a nice setup and a lot of wood! Very nice! Welcome and we look forward to hearing more from you! Cheers!
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome, pun intended ! I think I have about 23 cords total with 15 of those split and stacked, according the the cord calculate I found here. About 12 cords or so in the shed with the tractor. About 10 cords in the long wall of wood. It's about 5 1/2 ft high by 160 feet long, one row deep, it also functions as a privacy wall so we don't see the neighbors lights at night. It looks curved in the pic, but actually it's straight and follows the contour of the land (slight hill.) It's probably 5 years worth, we have 2 Jotuls, since retirement, I burn more than when working. Want to get way ahead so I can still burn wood when too old to cut and split. Woods are a mix of red oak, white oak, bitternot hickory, maple, popular, I cut whatever falls down, dies, or is in the way. Have 18 acres of mature hardwood forest. Using the loader on the tractor I can get to most places, and I am now cleaning up the woods of fallen trees. Some have a slight ring of outer pithyness but are very solid inside so I can't waste the BTUs. The most decayed stuff I burn in the fire ring outside. Someone asked about the trailer beside the tractor, it's a canoe trailer, hauls 4 canoes. A few more pics. Outdoor fire ring, 5 ft diameter 14" deep. A red oak that broke off in August 2015, it next to meet my Stihls. It fell right across a trail. From a old white oak found in the woods, about a 1/4" pithy on the outside, but lots of great solid wood, way too good to waste. Thanks again for the warm welcome.
