Been planning on building a shed to organize all my wood and get on a 2 year plus plan here on LI. Space is limited to store wood so I planned on a 6’ by 6’ by 12’ shed. It’ll hold 4 cords stacked when full. Me and my dad (74 years old and going strong thank God) said Ef this corona crap. Lets build it now. Just about done after 3 days. Tomorrow corrugated steel roof goes on and then she’s done. Will put pavers down and stack on them. $600 in lumber. All pressure treated. Framed with 4 by 4s all around including 6 cemented 20” down into the ground.
I see your Dad has his keys out and can't wait to get the heck out of there! Just kidding, nice job and even better that you could build it together!
I have a touch under 3 cords ready to be put in. Leaving myself a walk in I need another half cord. I know where to get just that much
Been wanting to make something substantial with him for a long time. Very fulfilling feeling. And we didn’t kill each other
A cord is 128 cubic feet The inside of the shed is 504 cubic feet So packed to the gills (which I won’t do) is a hair under 4 cords. I’m looking to get 3.5 cords into it
Great job and pic of you both. Cant wait to see follow up pics with it full. I think you have enough room to the left to build another one. After all you can never have enough firewood, can you? I hope you sprayed wood sanitizer on the lumber prior to building it!
I see where Dennis said what he said forcapacity. It's out bigger than 6x6x12 inside? At any rate, nice work!
Great work. Glad you got to spend quality time with your pops. The ones I have are called "Speedpost" Pound these into the ground. Keeps the posts out of standing water issues.
