I'm just gonna use 4x4s or 4x6s. Planning to make it 16x8 and stack it 8' tall. Should be right about 2 years worth. Then I can put a cord of shoulder wood elsewhere.
I like that idea! I was thinking of putting nutserts into the side of my shed so I could bolt metal roofing on the side that will be in use, then I could move it to the other side the next year.
That sounds good, I can hold up to 7 cords in there, and I also have some other small sheds I made from pallets that hold about 3 cords
Sorry to hear about your FIL but really good to see you coming back to post again. How's your family doing? Hope things will go smoother now. Shed should work out well. I'll soon be moving some wood into our barn. I had been doing that but last year I could not put as much as I'd liked into the barn because we bought a new tractor and it takes a bit of room. This week a new barn will be going up so I'll have that space again for wood in the barn.
I have a rubbermaid shed that is my current woodshed. It holds a little over 2 cords. I'd like to be able to shove my mower in that though.
Thanks Backwoods Savage family is good, how are you and the wife doing? It's good to be back..its that time again, I got alot of catching up to do, hopefully I'll have enough for this winter but I gotta get that dead wood asap. Its hard when you only have 1 day a week to do it, oh well gotta get it done, good to hear from you Dennis
We're still kicking although not too high. I do hope you can find enough dead wood to heat this winter. Sure wish you were on the 3 year plan, but you'll get it done. Must be a bit more difficult with the wood in your area. I'd let you have some of our wood but don't think it would be worth the hauling price!
I'll find plenty especially after the few storms we had this year. I'll ok , I'll figure something out
I’m a little late in welcoming you back NYCountry and in offering our condolences. Glad to see you and I hope the restocking goes smoothly
That's ok , hope all is well Eric VW it will easier now that the weather is cooler, it's been a horrible summer with all the rain and humidity and all the gnats this year , I'm looking forward to cooler temps
Sorry to hear about your FIL NYCountry. It is never easy but as you said he is now in a better place. On another note it's good to see you posting here. Can't wait to follow your progress as you fill that wood shed up
We had some kind of midges this year. We were extremely dry, so (almost) no mosquitoes, but those other bugs would be in your face the minute you walked out the door.
Your name's one of the ones I've been missing for a while. My condolences on the loss of your father-in-law. That's a trip we all have reservations to take, but we never know what time the bus leaves. Welcome back to the land of friendly wooden heads! Hope to see more posts and soon!
Thanks Ralphie Boy , everybody has their date on that calendar, hopefully its alot later and no pain . It's great to be back brother, how are things on your end? Hope all is well with you and the fam
