Last year was my first year burning at my house (been heating with wood almost all my life though).
My cords are in the back yard by the lot line, about 300ft from my house. I have a cart for my tractor, so I'd fill the cart, park it by the front door and pull off that. I have a wood box in the house that holds a couple days worth of wood. The cart was good for about a week or so.
This year I want to try something different. Instead of having to haul a load of wood every week, I want to cord some wood on the porch, a row, 3-4ft high about 10ft long. Should give me enough wood for a month or so, I won't need to leave that cart parked in front of the house, and the best part will be that I will be able to haul wood to the house when it's nice out instead of -20 and 70mph winds.
Porch is a concrete slab so weight of the wood is a non-issue.
I am looking for ideas on how to build a rack. I have some ideas, to include one I made last year, but photos of others might result in having something that works out better.
