Welcome to the club metalcuttr . You're going to fit in just fine. Excellent stacks! I like the pic that shows the kindling wood. All in all, a very fine setup!
Thank you for the warm welcome. Eric VW, as I get used to the site I will edit my avatar and signature. I've always been a bit persnicitty about my wood stacks. I have a friend who I sometimes cut with who likes to adopt the pose of an ancient scholar and says things like "We must Honor the Wood" and "an orderly stack indicates an orderly mind". Not sure about the orderly mind part though. I posed the "Postcard" photo for fun while I was splitting kindling. May use it for a greeting card to my friends one day. Was kind of tough to start tearing into that particular stack job though! Mwalsh9152, the shed is 10' x 12' and I stack into the rafters just over 7' high so holds 6.5 to 7 cords by my reckoning. Small potatoes compared to the volume of some stacks I have seen on this site. Fanatical1, I like those long wedge shaped splits when I can do them because they stack so neat and stable. When I run out to fill the wheel barrow they bust in half easily as I load. FHC seems a real friendly place. I recently joined an other forum and got only two welcomes. In all fairness that site was more geared to big time operations and businesses. It has been interesting reading the various threads. This site has its fair share of characters. Keeps the fun level up. metalcuttr

Welcome to the forum metalcuttr As others have stated, those are some beautiful pictures of some beautiful stacks. I'm wondering what kind of a burner you are using? The picture below and the mention of generator makes me wonder if you have an OWB. You did mention re-splitting them. This indeed is a unique method of stacking. I like it. I love the wood shed too. I also wonder because you do not have the stacks raised and with the amount of rain you get that perhaps makes things interesting on the bottom rows. In addition, if you raise only a few inches the added air circulation helps the drying a lot.
Because we like people to see the folly of their ways as quickly as possible. Then we can direct them to the vertical world. Welcome metalcuttr
That wood shed will make the FHC calendar...cover page! Very nice stacks sir! And welcome to the club! I think you're gonna like it here!
