Anyone use it to cover the wood pile, or will it leak?

It wont leak is very waterproof , but it is not very durable to sharp edges like split wood has. Will it work, yes. Is it the best option for the wood pile???? It is very noisy also when blowing in the wind.

Yes for short term only. Like BraskaYoter says.

ok had some laying around , ill pass , thanks for the info- makes total sense

Be Kind Too Others !

I've seen "Wrangell siding" (Tyvek) used as the primary siding on houses and it seems to last for years.

I use scrap rubber roofing. Local company puts it out for free in piles. Works great!

Go to your local lumber yard and get the lumber wrap that their dimensional lumber is shipped to them in. They are usually more than happy to give you as much as you want to haul off.

Tyvek works one way, make sure you put it on face out.

If you have a bunch laying around you should sell it back to the guys that make the suits. We've been out of the suits for months here where I work due to the covid.

I cover wood with the gray tarps. Better than blue yet not a bank-breaker. Wasteful, but better than wet wood. They last one season.

Find some recycled billboards, it's a vinyl material black, or white on one side and the billboard message on the other, stuff is near indestructible and comes in a variety of large sizes, pretty reasonable for what you get, just google recycled billboards, theres a guy in calif that sells them and regularly has specials...

LOL yes house wrap and blue tarps seemed to be the siding of choice around Tok and Delta Junction when I lived there. It will last quite a while when stapled to a flat surface as long as you keep edges from whipping in the wind.

I use it for a ground tarp while setting traps. Very lightweight and keeps my knees dry so it must be waterproof.

works well, seldom has tears and is tough as a tarp.
