In the spring I bought a grapple load of logs. After 64 hours of work it has been bucked, split and stacked. The grapple ended up being 7.5 cords. I'm about 4 cords of my three year supply.

Looks great! Log loads are supposed to be about 7-8 cords I believe so it appears like you got what you bargained for. I'm curious about how you're holding up the ends of the stacks. The 2x4's are just stuck into cinder blocks and you're stacking wood on the edge to prevent them from flipping?

Correct, they are just placed in the cinder blocks. You have to have then stand vertically. The 2x4 can hold more weight. The ends are just held in place with the weight of the wood. I have tried numerous ways to stack wood. By far this is the best method I have found so far. Below is a shot on how the goes together.

looks like you still have some work to do with all that standing dead in the background

Yea I see what you're saying and it seems pretty simple. I may take a page out of your book so to speak when I make my next stacks. Thanks for the explanation!
