There is enough room in the blocks to make it as wide as you need it.Good idea! Consider it stole again.
The contents of my garage are more concerning than a pile of wood outside. ....Stacking firewood against your house a terrible idea.
Stacking firewood against your house in Southern California is a REALLY TERRIBLE idea. That's just a giant trap for blowing embers should a fire get anywhere near your house.

damn dude , he's a grown *** man , what are you the firewood police?Yeah but the contents of your garage are pretty well protected from blowing wildfire embers by that nice stucco building. One little ember in that woodpile on a red flag day and the whole house goes up, regardless of what's in it.
People are amazed looking at neighborhoods after a wildfire moves through because most of the time there are houses that survive. Usually quite a few. Things like that woodpile go a long way in determining if a fire blows by, or burns your house down. Obviously sometimes it's just dumb luck, but a lot of time it's a direct result of taking some pretty simple preventative steps. Like not having a shake roof, or stacking wood against your house, or having concrete or stucco siding, keeping your gutters clean, etc.
I grew up with stacking fire wood as a thing that you did.
We stacked and split cords. 20 bucks a cord and we loved it. I still enjoy splitting dry rounds.
We fell, bucked, cut, split and stacked.
That's just what you did or you didn't have heat or cash.
So I'm a hick but me and my friends use to have splitting competitions. It's a good feeling when the round explodes into perfect stackable pies. You pick the right spot and the right wedge and drive that ***** into the dirt in one swing, the round blows into chunks and dam life is good!!
It just lays there...gravity holds the whole thing togetherso the plywood on the bottom is just laying there or attached somehow?

The rules in California are quite different when it come to fire defense. Up till last year most people in developed areas didn't worry about wild fires but in one year alone we had a couple of the most destructive fires ever, Santa Rosa 7500 homes destroyed, Ventura close to a 1000, these are not in the wooded hills.damn dude , he's a grown *** man , what are you the firewood police?
go measure a rim or something
A little small for 5 cords of wood .

i could make the statement that if the great state of commiefornia would stop trying to turn this country into a modern day Sodom and Gomorrah, there is a good chance that these "natural disasters" would stop plaguing her...but i would hate to see this thread moved to the N&P so im just gonna keep quiet
I don’t imagine you think much about weather phenomena being retribution for your sins come January up there in Michigan do you? No?
