I'm gonna fell trees and from what I read cord measurement is weird to begin with. I'm gonna measure my use this winter in trees. Like I used 10 regular sized trees, for example. Guess that varies on location, since different places have different trees.
A cord is simply a stack of a certain dimension. Drive 2 t-posts into the ground 8 feet apart and make a stack in between them that is 4 feet high. Assuming your wood is cut to typical fireplace length, you just stacked half a cord.
That should work for you to make a year-to-year comparison of your use. I don't know why you'd have any reason to stack it and measure it unless you just wanted to compare your use with others in an anonymous forum, because, like you said, different places have different trees.
