Some would tell you there's an art form to stacking wood properly. Here's how to stack two cords of wood which might last a winter depending on many factors of course,

What’s the “art” about that?

What’s an “art” is stacking 2-3 cords without any posts to hold up the ends.

Best part about my wood, is I cut, load and haul it all with machines and “cut” a deal with a guy I know with a firewood processor.

The first time it’s touched by human hands is when I unload and stack it at my house

Are those long delays someone getting another small pickup full of wood or beer breaks? There’s quite a number of them in the video.

Some would call this art:



I had to chop and stack cords of wood every year for my parents growing up. The art is stacking it on the side of the house without touching the house but close enough to be under the overhang to protect it from rain. And to make the ends vertical as possible without collapsing.

I was expecting to see a holz hauzen. It is a nice airy shed.

Two cords wouldn’t have gotten me past Christmas. I’m so glad to live in a milder climate with natural gas for heat.

Don't need to watch a vid. Stacked hundreds of cords in my younger days.

It was so exciting I had to have more. I went right over to the Paint Drying channel.

Or you could stack it like this...

I have no problem stacking wood.
I can do it all day.

I call The Wood Man.
He comes with his son.
They unload and stack, quite nicely, two full cords of beautifully dried wood.

I even take a picture sometimes.

Does that give you a woody???....Be honest...lol..Please

[kiryandil]

I've done a couple of holz hausen.

They work quite well.

[metmom]

That’s a terrific picture.

Wood will warm you four times...

*when you cut the tree down
*when you split it
*when you stack it
*when you bring it inside and burn it

Back in the 70's there were two skilled tradesmen at my company's stamping plant in Detroit who built a gas powered wood splitter (it was better than anything that could be bought at that time)on company time and with parts available in the plant.

What they didn't know is that labor relations and plant security were following their progress and when it was finally completed, they were busted.

They were given time off and as for the splitter, I don't know what the plant did with it.......

Nice.

the woodman cuts and splits my wood. Three cord plus is a normal year. Have six drying.

Love a wood fire.
