:DI try to split some of the oak like boards for cribbing. The beech was very crooked and more challenging. It might even by slightly higher then...
Thanks for the compliment. It is funny too, because my name is Art!

Beautiful one cord racks. I am a fan of the cribbed ends, takes a little longer but I feel it looks better. All depends what outcome you prefer.
Some of the older rack supports were starting to get loose and bow out. Instead of fixing them, I just removed the screws and went from 8' to 12'....

You can see a short, covered stack of Ash behind the oak. I have a bunch more Ash rounds out at Bob's that needs to come home. That should finish...

Thank you!
I went back and cut another load of red oak and beech. Finished off my 1/2 cord stack of Oak and started another. Beech stack is just about done...
I didn't take any pictures when I was cutting it up. I can next time I am out there. There is a little bit of the trunk left and it was pretty...
The trunk looked nice and straight. But when I ran it thru my splitter, some pieces broke apart and went flying. It was hard to read the wood....
Figured I would start a new thread instead of continuing my red oak one. I got permission to take the beech from my new favorite cutting spot. I...
Thanks Dennis!
