Absolutely bananas
So I am about 5 months into my new career, working at a hardware store. I was asked today where to get firewood bundles... Oh?
City market, has some.
Then I ask the head cheese why we don't have any? We used to, and it should still be on the computer under (don't laugh) FWD for "firewood"
I poked it up, and it was $3.75 for a bundle.
More inquires with big boss, and maybe some negotiation is in order.
I could keep a straight face while I ring up a bucks worth of wood for 4 bucks.
Plus, it would be NICE wood. Seasoned, split, bundled pine.
No, I am not going to comission one of you guys to deliver me a couple of cords of oak out here.... It isn't in the budget.
So I go checking what a "bundle" is. somewhere between .75 and just over 1 cubic ft. Length? Probably about 16 inches.
I figure I could manufacture a round cage contraption about 14 inches in diameter and jam it with wood, then shrink wrap it. That would make 1.4 something CF, with air spaces probably somewhere between 1 and 1.25 CF.
I need opinions, am I out of my mind?? Thanks!
