    firewood sculpture

    I was poking around trying to find a good source for local firewood, and I came across this site. It shows a couple creative ways to stack firewood...

    He certainly has plenty of time on his hands.

    As for firewood sources, I recall some pretty thick woods around that area. How about a chainsaw, maul and muscle

      do that in texas and you'll have termites eating both your firewood and house for lunch.

      If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

        As to the second picture the local fire department would be all over you before you could finish stacking it that far around your house. What a fire hazard.

        The first picture though is great. Someone has some imagination as well as too much time on their hands.

          Alex, sign up for freecycle. Folks advertise firewood often enough there that as long as you only need it for occasional fires in a fireplace you should be good to go.

          The chief cause of failure in this life is giving up what you want most for what you want at the moment.

            Good idea -- I've been meaning to sign up for that anyway. Problem is I don't have a truck... But I'll check it out.

              We moved firewood for years in the back of our station wagons. Just cover everything with old sheets and vacuum afterward. It's a pain but you can put a surprising amount of wood in a car.
