Yes, diameter at the base, but it is difficult to cut the base alone without recovering wood of 40,30 or 20 mm ....
Forget it, it doesn't matter (at least for me!), But a cubic meter of logs of 80mm or more does not do the same service in a stove as a cubic meter of "kindling" of less than 50, even if the power calorific is the same, that's just what I wanted to point out.
Why do you think I mentioned equivalent stere?
In a stove, there is no difference (or almost) for equal mass between split logs of 50 cm and branches of 50 mm ...
Storing and supplying the fire is more difficult with 50 mm ...
