I’ll play since it’s raining out.
This is my approx. 8 cord wood shed, I burn about 3.5 to 4 cords a season, I alternate sides or bays, so the splits once reloaded in the spring have 2 full summers under a roof, wood moisture after sitting for 2 years in the shed is around 14% or so, very happy with the whole setup, considering that I’m a back yard builder that usually just thinks something up and make work as I go along.
Those are my newest rows, each row holds 3 full cords, almost finished the 3rd but as you can see, the ground got a little soft on top of the frost line and I don’t want to deal with ruts in the spring, I’m pulling these splits from a pile to the right of this picture.
Here’s the current pile (blocked by the tree) I’ll finish the last 3 cord row and be able to fill an open bay in the woodshed this spring with it, the small little pile next to the trailer is for camp firewood, some tulip poplar got mixed in with the log lengths I was getting, no big deal since it was free.
Here’s the same pile when I got done splitting the last log and giving the area a good rake, most wood I’ve ever split at once, it was a lot of fun and I felt proud of myself for taking it on. If you look to the left of the trailer, you’ll see round cones, that was my solution for the small cutoffs/ uglies, works really well for making things neat.
Here’s the garage rack, holds between 7-9 days worth of wood, I try not to pull from it until it gets really cold out, until then it’s a wheel barrel load direct from the shed in the driveway to the little rack by the stove.
