So my buddy's mom used the insurance money from when his dad died to buy a place in NorthEast WI. They saved the logs from clearing the land and we went up there to help make some firewood. They tried to get a guy with a portable sawmill to make some slabs but noone could get their equipment down the lane.
So here's what we started with: The top of that stack was over 8' high
Mostly pine with eight REALLY good-sized oak logs (and about a dozen smaller ones). Getting those two oak logs off the top were a bit dicey at first.
Later in the day:
My buddy in the yellow likes to throw the pine...and his dog kept my 455 company.
He wanted to save six of the big oak rounds for fire-pit seats... I say it's a waste of really good firewood.
About 1/3 of the pine blocked and stacked:
