Maybe the moisture will fall out of it faster if its stacked vertically in a single row like that. Seriously though that sucks...balls.
I hate when that happens. Im a terrible firewood stacker. That happens to me all the time,just not that much.
Is that some different form of one of them there holhauzen things? Seriously though, that really does blow. Sorry for your lose......
Before I opened it I saw an empty rack and wood down low the pile was off screen. THought somone stole a load
That sucks MM, we have one that's ready to go so I plan on moving it this spring. Our stack that's ready to go is some nice Beech from 2010, it will be moved from the eastside to the northside of the house so we can burn it next year.
Man, that sucks! Looks like you might benefit from bogydave's method of leaning the stacks toward each other.
It does take me FOREVER to stack one of those rows, or so it seems. They are 12ft long and 6 ft high. Of course I won't be able to do anything about it until the weather breaks, cold and rainy here today. Lots of uglies were in that stack, guess I should sort a few more of them out.
Great picture. So you needed some pieces from the back row ? ? New stacking technique, on the ends, A test or some secret drying method ? I use a couple techniques to help stabilize the taller stacks. Place a stick long enough to tie the rows together every 4 to 6 feet, In the shed I use sticks & this year I tied a rope to the back of the shed & at the face of the row I put a piece of plywood with a hole in the middle, tied a knot to hold it in place. Did this for each row. Both help forward & backward stability when staking over 4'
