Modelling a Log Store (hranice dřeva)

[hobby]

I am not sure what the proper word is for these:



I saw a lot of them recently and would like to model them in HO and TT. I wonder how people do them or if there is someone who makes them?

Log Store (logovací úložiště) - it is funny translation
logovací úložiště -> disk space for logs of application

try with google "hranice dřeva"

To Sidlo: I think that translation is OK. Because "log" = "kláda" and "store" je "sklad".

How to people do it? Normaly, they buy the logs and store on their garden, as you cas see on th picture, so I do not understand what is your question exactly? How people do it in real live, or how to make it in TT/H0?

Good old Google Translate! I can see the logic in it, even if it wasn't what i wanted!

Kajinek: I want to add them to my TT and HO layouts, they seem to be very common around Nova Bystrice, I model the JHMD, so the question is how to make them? Or does someone already make a model of them I could use?

hobby: The principle is, that it is cheaper to buy "fresh" wood (usually one meter long), but for heating in fireplace you have to have it two years old for optimal "wetness". Then you can see it have two halves - one is "this year" one is "previous year".
Next step is cut it on circular saw (to cca 30cm) and then chop it to smaller pieces. Those pieces are stored "close to door", because you need it during winter and then it must be close.

A lumberjack or a timber merchant would call your object probably "a log stack". In the Czech pulp & paper industry (where I spent most of my job life) the old workmen once upon a time used a term "a Finnish way of stacking pulpwood" or simply "a Finnish log stack"- meaning the side logs are laid like in your picture, perpendicularly and inclined. The Finnish way is used for stacking entire tree trunks or longer (the recent standard is 2 or 4 meters) pulpwood logs as well as for old-fashioned meter-long logs. Nevertheless your stack obviously is one of firewood and its owner probably has no trouble with seeking or inventing a special term, so simply say "a woodpile" or - if you want to proove your expertise - "a log stack".

I think we may not understand each other here!

I know how they are made in Real Life but want to make a model of them for my layouts.

I have found a Kibri model of a similar logpile.

I want to know if there are any better models of them?

I thought with them being very common in the Czech Republic someone may make a model in HO or TT scales for you to use on your layouts.

Are you sure you must buy some plastic?
It is usual to go to forest/garden and find some small straight stick/twigs. Cut them to proper length and them cut them to quarter. Then you have nice day with glue.

So I did not make yet for stock. But as load I made to my coach.

I am using small pieces of real branch, which I found in the forrest, I cuted by sharp scalp. In my point of view it looks quite real. It si very simular to this:

They kept them well hidden! We were there just over a week ago and I didn't see them!! They are perfect for what I want though...

I have ordered some through a German shop I deal with.

Thanks again!
