Block = to cut a tree into the right length pieces - i.e. "block a tree to 17" (ready for the splitter)
Round = 3" round by 14" to 17" long - probably bark covered.
Single = 3" round by 14" to 17" long - split once
Split = 3" by 3" by 14" to 17" long - 2 sides core and 1 side bark - split at least twice (looks like a quarter circle from the end)
I think these terms might be from the coal companies when coal got expensive back during WWII and 14" to 17" sticks would fit as substitute fuel in a lot of the old coal-burning fireplace/furnaces (western Kentucky) Anyway, these were the terms when I was a kid if you went looking for firewood down there - I just sorta adopted the slang for "Q" wood too...

I guess I'm hung up on describing wood for some reason...
Anyway all this wood is hardwood suitable for cooking/flavor...:
Chunks: - pretty obvious - golf ball up to fist size chunks of hardwood - can be the whole fire or when added to fire will add some heat but also smoke
Chips: - also pretty obvious - like what you can buy in a bag - but now they are added more sparingly - or put in a pan over a heat source - so mostly just added for smoke but very little heat.
Chainsawchips: - smaller than the chips you buy and I was calling this chainsawdust but it won't self propagate it's own fire so THAT's out - I think this has to be about the smallest "chips" possible...
Dust: - sawdust cut from hardwood with a smaller tooth blade like a circular or table saw - this stuff WILL self propagate a fire when lit if done in the correct ventilated tray - see rancid crabtree thread under wood smokehouses...
I'm not sure this helps anybody but I had to get it off my mind - so there!
