Close enough to win the attaboy mainewoods , it's a... err... "wide in the beam" woman pullin' up her girdle.

Under 12" gets split in half, over 12" get quartered, 6" and smaller just gets burned.
All 18 to 20" long.

There is that, about as neat and tidy and easy as it gets. 4 sides throws some good heat, too. You get those down into the heartwood, or you can make it come out that way. The outside stuff tends to be more triangular for me, so I go ahead and make those smaller anyway. I like a variety of split sizes mixed together, with the small rounds.

I would think you could call that wide rectangle or slab, and I agree, I like that shape, stacks good, fits in the hand good, stove loads well.

I keep a lot of rounds in the stacks, but those aren't splits, that's why I didn't include them.

That's the vote I was thinking of casting for as well...

When I split big wood I ask the grand kids do they want sliced bread or cheese, They get thin slices or chunks depding on ther ansewer. Our stove will burn any thing we can put in so it does not matter.

 

[OhioGregg]

Don't really matter to me, although the wider squarer ones do stack nice in the furnace. They ALL exit the basement as ash in a 5 gal. bucket in the end.

Gregg,
