Really hard to tell the species from the video, but I know that in the geographical area where the video was shot the three common production...
Here is a video of a wood stack in northern Finland (the home country of Fiskars). The poster's comment states that he has not measured the stack...
Missed this discussion in November, but I have had a question in mind related to this. My situation is similar to FFJ's described above - When the...
