I have been buying and storing wood for a large fireplace the last few years, but now am moving to heating with a stove full time. I buy wood, supposedly seasoned, which I think means the logs have layed around for a year or more before being spit and delivered. In the past I've stacked directly into the barn.... I've been picking up on this site and just looking around that many prefer to stack outside.
I'm also considering going in with a neighbor on a splitter. A load of hardwood logs can be had here for 6-700.00. I have friend who is doing this who gets about 40 face cords from a load- so less than 20.00 a piece. I'd like to also be able to prep wood for my pottery business, are there splitters that can do longer lengths 30-40"?
So if there are threads you can direct me to or have some advice, thanks.
