    Got all the material from a demolition project for free. The post, cross supports and roof frame is metal. The metal roof is supported by wood joist so the panel screws could hold. The wood is 50% oak, 30% hickory and 20% ash. I have another shed full and lots of uncovered wood so as Ive finally achieved the 3 year hoarding goal. Yeah!!!!!!!:hair:

    According to the wood hoarder calculator it figures to be 18.75 chords. Thats at a average of 6 foot in height.

    Isn't that the truth! I thought my 12'×21' would be all I'd ever need. After I filled that and then filled enough outside to fill it again I knew I had a problem lol. On the plus side I don't have to take trash wood anymore... but I still do for some reason :hair::hair:

    It's a vicious circle! More wood means you need a shed. More shed means you need more wood. Sweet job Log Dog III ! You're in a place where we all understand.
