In your pictures I see a 2-wheeled garden cart and a 2-wheeled wheel barrow. How do you like the 2-wheeled wheel barrow? Does it have an over sized "tub" on it? I'm considering one. Sweet cutting area btw.
Buy a tractor with a 84" loader. You'll never go back to a wheel barrel again.It is great for non-extreme loads or when working on flat ground. Very easy to control and move. However, I found that mine does not handle heavy loads over uneven terrain well at all. When fully loaded with wood or rocks mine is an absolute bear to move around the woods. As you can see from my pictures, most of my yard is very rough. I think I bent the axle hauling some rock around the yard over the summer. The wheels do not seem to spin right anymore. I need a freaking tractor...

Another review that is less than 5 star, showing once again the value of talking with folks here. Thanks.
That's a Garden Way Cart. Originated in Vermont. Well known and coveted in these parts.I got the large 2 wheel kart from my grandfather's house and that has quickly become one of my most used tools. It uses two large bicycle tires and the clearance is great for working in the woods/yard. I would highly recommend one of those for firewood moving!

That's bad ass, but you got way too much time on your handsGarden Way was a great company. I have a Trailblazer sickle mower and a Troy-Bilt Horse rototiller. Good stuff!
I have built 4 holzhausen with short wood. 3 have collapsed. Rebuilt each time. The one with the "worm hole" is now 1/2 gone, but the one next to it never fell, and the 2 with the doofus dog are still standing after the initial re-stacks 1 year ago. Pictures are within the past year and don't looks much different than they do today.
and Whiskey….unfortunately my "educated" guess would be yours WILL collapse. Have a beer & restack. Nice pic's & great wood lot.
Merry.

Yes…WAY too much time! But I am lazy, and round is easier than stacked corners. Except when you do it twice!!!That's bad ass, but you got way too much time on your hands![]()
If I ever built one I would never want to burn it! How long would you say it takes to stack one if you have all the splits ready to go?Yes…WAY too much time! But I am lazy, and round is easier than stacked corners. Except when you do it twice!!!![]()
Good thing Wifey took over!She is a keepah!
It is probably not much different than doing it the conventional way but it does get more difficult the taller you stack it (you'll need a ladder!!). But I did the math, and the 2 with the dog are about 4.5 cords total, and the 2 with the worm hole were about 7.5 cords. (the unstacked pile was about 2 more). I just did them because they are cool, and the wood dries really quick. The 2 with the dog are going to stay till next year…sort of blocks my house from the road!If I ever built one I would never want to burn it! How long would you say it takes to stack one if you have all the splits ready to go?
