How much do you burn per season, say on a 5 season average?
Is there a reason why you guys go three wide on your stacks? Wouldn't two wide or even singles be better for air flow and quicker seasoning. Is it solely a space saver?
The secret is in the split not so much the stack. Split rectangle or square rather than triangle. If the split is correct, the stack is as easy as stacking blocks....... uh, well dats jes what you doin I guess. Not to worry, after 30 or so years of learning how to split square and uniform, you to will have artistic stacks like Backwoods. I am humbled by, and bow to his experience.
That is cheating! I believe that stack was in Canada.
Same way they get 2x4's. Oak is very easy to get squares out of. Some of my splits are almost too pretty to burn...almost.How do you split a round log into rectangles??
I have been able to do this with large oak rounds but the normal 16" rounds I get, I don't think I could make splits like that. Would be nice to pack the stove tight with them though.Same way they get 2x4's. Oak is very easy to get squares out of. Some of my splits are almost too pretty to burn...almost.
