It does seem rather arbitrary, and entirely unnecessary. I was talking with my wife about it while we were walking the dog and even she agrees...

All better. [ATTACH]
This year I'm burning a ton of sugar maple, but if I had my druthers for a wood I'd rather process it's white oak.
Gotta love the toys. I tell my wife the same thing! As long as I get to run the saws for a few hours I'm happy.
I definitely like it and it makes kindling processing easier and safer. It was a gift from a good friend of mine who understands my firewood...
Nice load there! I always tend to run out of kindling, so this year I'm getting as far ahead of it as I can. I take busted pine pallets from work...
I'm sure there's a lost soul or two out there that will shell out a hundo for a few rounds. But I don't think you'll find any of those people here...
Level some pallets with cinder blocks / bricks / stones / whatever ya got. The side of my yard has a gradual slope and this works well for me.
No way man, it's an opportunity! It was bound to happen sooner or later.
I assumed I'd be posting this thread at some point, as it was just a matter of time. I noticed the back side of the mighty holz hausen was looking...
I can smell that stuff from here. Used to hate the smell of split red oak when I was a kid, helping my stepdad with his firewood business. Now I...
I'm in a Facebook group in my town that's solely for barter, favors, good deeds, etc. Nothing is bought or sold, so it's just neighborly stuff. I...
They still have a program like that of sorts, though I think it's a bit of a rip off. I saw a sign in Nehantic State Park indicating that you can...
I brought my old smoke dragon outside to use as a maple sap evaporator in the spring. I can't speak to how that paint will hold up outside, as...
Trapezoidal is the optimal shape by far. You have the stability of a square with the aesthetic appeal of triangular. Nah! Just kiddin'... I...
It's Connecticut. The cost of living is outrageous and we're taxed on pretty much everything.
I find that the fungi that appears on the wood in my yard is just always going to happen, especially to red oak, no matter where I stack it. I...
Got around the mid 40's overnight in coastal CT here. Threw some maple in the new stove and the family loved it. [ATTACH]
This might be a little too convoluted to be considered "easiest", but it's a recent experiment of mine. It works for me, but may not for you. I...
