Here's my first attempt at a holz hausen. I put down 6 pallets for an 8'x9' base. The wood is a mixed potpourri of hardwoods, but predominantly locust. You may remember the thread I started last year when I dropped a big locust, well this is it. The core is full of chunks and uglies.
A couple pics as it was under way. I had my wife get next to it when it was finished to get an idea of its size. That pic was taken in July.
In the next few days I will begin tearing it down and relocating the wood to the racks by the house. Last week I tested a bunch of random pieces throughout the HH with my moisture meter and everything was between 8 and 13% MC.
What'cha think??
