I stacked the rest of that beech today, sort of haphazardly; then started a stack right against it to help wedge it up.

I also spent way too long noodling / splitting a few big knotted pieces I had … I have 1 left, debating rolling into a ditch and forgetting about it though🤣🤣. It’s oak… so I’ll probably force myself to noodle / split it.

Those pieces burn a LONG time they are very dense!

It’s going to make my back and shoulders dense cutting it up!🤣🤣🤣

I’ll probably end up quartering it with the chainsaw, then splitting it after I catch up on splitting the rest of the easy stuff; then I’ll toss on top of the stacks.
