I can understand wood hoarding/collecting as much as the next guy. And I've been known to have a good sized stash of this or that when a special opportunity comes along that requires buying a bunch at a time (like 400 bd ft of highly figured hard maple or the 1000+ bd ft of Port Orford Cedar I'm working through.) But I really don't understand the point of 5000 bd ft. Is it for sale? Is it the result of cutting down trees in the back 40? I need some help here.
My total stash is probably about 2000 bd ft at the moment, unless like Gene we decide to count the standing timber. Then it's a heck of a lot more, but all ponderosa pine - about 150 acres worth.
A lot of it is coming up with good deals on downed trees with the majority of it being from a huge cherry tree that a woman wanted taken down. Told her I couldn't cut it down because it was way too big for my chainsaw and talent, but that I would take the logs away if she got it cut down. The rest has come from good deals at auction and other sources.
It is for sale if somebody wanted some, but I'm not actively marketing it. I probably don't have more than about $1,500 in all of it combined.
