[QUOTE="Moddoo, post: 648575, member: 13122"] Thanks for the replies everyone. I stacked most of it before I read any of them. I tried to stack carefully. I layed down some boards on the ground for a foundation, and stacked the pieces tightly. The trees are about 16" diameter, and we had 20 - 30 mph winds last night. Everything is fine so far. The trees were moving very little at the top of my stacks. However, I believe you guys when you say you have had problems, I am a little worried about the larger gap. It looks to be about 15 feet. (I only had enough wood to fill one of the large gaps) 3 smaller gaps are only about 8 feet each. They seem pretty safe. It looks like about 1.5 cords so far. It would not be too much work to restack it. I was thinking of adding some diagonal braces for the larger stacks, in the center. The thing is, I don't have much property, and need to put my wood somewhere. Thanks again, open to any more ideas anyone has. [/QUOTE]
