How many of you make your own kindlin? Shoulder season we go through the most. This past burning season we went through around a 40"X40"X36"H box full. How much do you all go through??
I go through very little, but couldn't really guess at an amount. As for making it, I burn mostly ash so every once in a while when I see a perfectly straight grained piece I bust it up small. That and some bark that falls off and some sticks that land in my yard get me by. I think you're using a pretty reasonable amount. It doesn't sound like that much to me.
We have almost 3/4 of a face cord that will be 2 years old. We just put the firestarter next to the split to start the fire, for us it's a waste of time.How many of you make your own kindlin?

Thats where I'm still at, seasoned wood no doubt, but haven't quite hit that 2+ year stuff yet (even though I am currently working on 2015/16 soon to be 16/17, but unless I fell some smaller trees, I'm running low on space )We have almost 3/4 of a face cord that will be 2 years old.

At first we needed the kindling but our wood is much drier than the first couple of years so getting the fire going is easier.
