    of this winter's firewood. Should be about 6.5 cords in there when I'm done.
    The l/h side is all Oak, the r/h side is a mix of Pine, Maple, and Ash.
    7 rows deep, and an average of 6.5' tall X 7.5' wide.

    Haven't got a clue. Don't even remember where I got it, but I had one very much like it back a few years that kinda fell apart. Need the wide brim to keep the sun off.

    Good for you Dave. I'll still wait a couple months to move wood into the barn but will put some on the porch sometime next month.

    So sure you've done the math papadave , what does 7 rows of those dimensions yield in the shed? What's your average burn?

    Average burn is about 5 cords.
    The dimensions actually yield a little over 7 cords, but there's some missing from both sides I didn't tell youse guys about. Oh, and the Ash is a little short. Wait, that doesn't sound right.

    Managed a small load this morning before the rain started.
    Now I need a couple days of sun and wind before I'll move any more.
