A face cord is 4 x 8 x the size you cut for your stove. Three face cords to a cord nominally but some folks have two face cords to a cord because they cut their wood a bit longer. Still comes out to 4 x 4 x 8 for a full cord in the end. Kevin. KD5ONS (with stiff fingers from splitting wood, warm though :) On Sun, 19 Mar 2006 16:29:19 -0600, David F.
