    Board is over the fence for neighbor, it was extra; And keg has the top cut out of it and it's a planter..:cool: I used to use it for a corn, crab, clam, lobster, cooker (they make a "GREAT") pot. I got a new keg a few years back and retired that one as a planter. Dogs can pee on it all day and wont hurt it:eek:!

    Your project looks great. Love the design in the roof shingles. Hope you post pics when it is full. I love seeing wood stacks that I didn't have to help stack.

    Right where I want to be.
    Agreed, I don't love the stacking.
    However, I do love the feeling of accomplishment from doing it.

    I will! I'm going to make a vine trelles on each end for trumpet vines for the humming birds,:):cool: and a slatted back so the wood won't crash into my neighbors fence. Once thats done "hopefully" in the next two weeks, we'll start loading it up.

    The sqft says it'll hold 4 cord, Thats what I burn in a normal winter. I exceeded that this year by a cord:eek:

    as long as you have wood under cover when winter weather hits you're good, just grab wood from outside the shed at the beginning of burning season.

    It does look very nice. Need a pic in late August when the shed is full and the flowers on the ends are in bloom.
