    Looks like the right bay may need a little attention once emptied.

    Thats the original shed (it was his old tree fort years back) he let me use starting last year. Only propped up on edges and with all the splits i stacked in there well you can see what happened. Plan to rebuild that in the Winter.

    Only A grade bundle splits go here. General cordage stays next door.

    Saved an old rain gutter from a job back in the Spring. Installed it yesterday. May need to get a better pipe for it to direct water more into woods. I honestly didn't need it as there was not issues with runoff from the roof that I was aware of. Its more for if I happen to be making bundles and don't want to get dripped on. It had settled which didn't surprise me as it was built on grade and with all the weight of the wood.

    Total out of pocket cost for project was maybe $20. All the materials were reclaimed, scrounged or donated. I have a couple additions in the works for it already. One was supposed to commence over the Winter but never materialized. IMG_5596.JPG

    LOL!!! No bucket. I have pulled a bent nail out of my pouch (one pouch is for trash) and straightened in a pinch.

    Most of the fasteners were partial boxes etc. leftover from other jobs. Contractor friend had a half full 50# box of 8d galvanized finish nails I used for the floor.

    And here I thought the "F" in FHC was firewood. Now, it's fasteners?

    I'm so confused. :cool:
