PS.....Since length isn't taken into account there's really no such thing as a rick of firewood.



Unless of course........you're married to your cousin.


That's the answer I was lookin' for.

WTF is a rick?

Is there a standard measurement.

Now that the good Padre Vinnie has informed me, it seems it might be a face cord? Maybe sorta? Depending on length?

If, as wageslave has pointed out, that is the case, then I have more than a "rick" there.
Gonna fill one wall of my woodshed, which is 10' wide. The roof slopes some from about 7' to 6' and I use 6.5' as a working average height. The wood is cut 14" to better fit my stove. 14"/12"= 1.1666 ft. (16" will work in the stover but anything over, even slightly, has to go in COCKeyed. Which cuts down on filling it properly and is a pain.)

Therefor 10' x 6.5' x 1.16666' = 75.829 cu ft.

One cord =128 cu ft so 128/75.829 = 0.59 cord or thereabouts

Just like camper shells fit on the rails of a pickup, campers slide into a pickup, and camp trailers are towed by a pickup, let's agree that firewood is measured in cords, fractions thereof, and the infamous face cord. wink
