After a nice afternoon splitting wood (yes, this is my idea of a good time exercising 🙂), my main wood stack has grown to a height that I deem barely safe. It’s 6 times as high as it is wide now, and it’s getting quite wobbly.
I’ve run out of space to stack wood the conventional way. But I have so much wood left to split that I really want to try building a Norwegian wood stack next:
Because finding logs with the right length and girth that create criss-crossing “planes” that stay flat and contact the plane underneath as flat and wide as possible, so the resulting tower isn’t wobbly and “grows” straight, is a pain in the butt. It’s annoying enough that I often take the time to shape the logs with a hatchet so they lay flat and stable.
