It does not catch the wind as much as a tarp does as the wind can go through it to some extend. Father dear has a few big stacks of straw that have just a few lengths of baler twine with 5l cans of water dangling from them.

 

The firewood is on pallets with wire cages on, stacked two high. They have a strip of that stuff over the top and down a foot or so. It's tied once across every pallet so you can untie what you take away without having to re-tie the remainder.

Hi any idea where i can get this new type of tarp/material from? i viewed Ten Cate website and cant find any stockists.cheers

 

Not really tbh. My parents live in the Netherlands so their supplier would not be who you're after I reckon.

 

Try these guys maybe?

Dave,

 

That method wont work too well because you need warm air to get it to rise through the wood.

The best way would be to build a frame over the wood with a pitched roof allowing airflow from both sides and underneath, and then if the logs sweat the condensation runs down the inside and drips onto the ground and not on your logs.

 

If you can get hold of a cheap poly tunel, they work well too as the sun warms them up
