    We've seen some beautiful woodstacking art in the past. This one by Alastair Heseltine is still my favorite.
    alastair heseltine.jpg but there are some other creative designs that are inspiring.

    I will never brag about my woodshed again after seeing this one:

    OK, now this is getting a bit ridiculous. How do you disassemble them in winter?

    That's why the car is parked inside so you can't see the body damage!

    I think that the pile would fall down if they pulled the car out!

    What kind of car would you park in there? A Honda Ac-cord?

    Thank you Begreen for your research efforts. Loved the pics. Alastair's felled tree is why I joined the forum. There was a link from Craigslist to here with a posting of his work.
    Ive been accused of playing with the woodpiles but not on that scale. Im glad to see my preoccupation with Feng shui-ing the woodpiles is not so unusual after all.

    I was actually thinking older. It would obviously be a Cord.

    When I look at those stacks all I can think of is that would make for a wicked game of Jenga.

    Sweet! People are awesome.
    I would never want to pull a split fromany of them. Well, except the carport. That one I think I'd tear down the moment after the pic was taken and car removed.
