How would you stack these wood chunks?

+1 on pallet stacking. Break 'em up like regular-length splits and stack pyramid-style (longer on the bottom, shorter on the top) with a bit of gap for air flow between stacks.

I get it. I'm really obsessed with consistent lengths and those ends just work on my sense of geometry in the stack. I give them to my brother. He doesn't care. Weird.

What should I do with this stuff?

Make a bin from a pallet and some wire fence.

I have a bunch of stuff like that. Close to two cords. I cut everything to 16 inches and always end up with these short pieces from the ends. I don't really have a solution. Ive stacked most of mine but it's a nightmare to stack. The wire bin post above looks like an ok idea.

I would create a holz hausen and fill up the center with the chunks

Wood pile Jenga!

I obtain wood entirely through scrounging, and get wood of every length imaginable. I have my own version of CSS. it is cut, split and don't give a chit how it looks stacked.

I had the same situation and left a larger space in between the 2 rows on my pallets. It got filled up with those odd shape ones and the rest found a way in the stacks where ever I could fit them. It was white oak so I was not going to turn it down.

I end up with goofy ends from my scrounged wood too. So not as much as you have there. It goes into a heaped pile for the fire pit so doesn't really matter if it gets totally dry. I would fasion up a bin like WES999. And pull from it for the shoulder seasons.

Pallets with a fence around it. Covered of coarse!

Don't bother with them, just send all the pieces you don't want to me!

Those look like the pieces that get tossed between the 2 stack lines my dad and I use. Stuff that didn't split worth a $#!t or oddly shaped pieces go between the stacks.

I won't turn down any decent firewood and often have people calling or dropping off wood just like this. Most of the time it comes from those that don't burn wood and don't have to worry about stacking anything. I won't complain though since it's free wood. I'd stack it with some metal T posts on both ends with a rope about half way up to keep the posts tight into the wood stack to ensure it doesn't fall over.

If you are lazy and cheap like me, just toss them in a shed or garage (large container)
Otherwise pallets/heap hauzen
Oak is the good stuff so be good to it and give it a place to stay a couple years.

Any way they would not fall over, reckon.

After I've stacked my stacks as high as I like them I throw all the chunks & uglies on top of my stacks... sure it makes the stacks look less "pleasing to the eye" but I don't care what the stacks look like. It's functional and that's all I care about...

I generally use the chunks in the shoulder season or while camping...

Whatever you decide to do I am envying you burning those. The would fit in my BK nicely and burn forever!
