    Had a chance to get some wood. A bit warm to be working, but glad I got it under cover. Moisture content was well under 20% so I decided to put it right into the shed as I won’t need to burn it this year n[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    I bet your wood dries faster than the coastal crew? The wood with the highest MC that I split and stacked in april was average 38% (fir) I just split several in that stack and checked MC again. Down to 16% already. This dry heat and wind is good for something.

    Looking good!

    How big is that carport? Looks like it would hold quite a stash..

    30’ x 12’. I had a concrete dog run so decided to have this put up.
    Right now I figure I have about 8 cord in there. I could probably stack higher, but this should last a while.

    Really like the idea of using a carport for a wood shed.
