    With me around more than likely, but getting free chit may pose a problem there.

    Pipe and pallets are free and readily available. Steel for the roof is gonna be free it’s been lying around at work for years.

    That’s probably what will happen for the addition

    Update:
    Hard to believe that this started in October of ‘22. But I did make some noteworthy progress today ( Easter Sunday)

    the rest of the roof will have to wait until I get the 20 foot addition added on and tied in.

    Looking good. Will the addition be just an extension of the existing structure?

    Yes, another 20 ft. For a total of just shy of 60 ft.

    Started on the addition today and made pretty good progress, ( by my standards). IMG_1708.jpeg IMG_1710.jpeg IMG_1709.jpeg IMG_1707.jpeg

    Not really room to make it any longer. And it’s not big enough to hold everything I have that needs processing. I’m guessing the two larger bays in the addition will just barely hold the black locust from Going for the gold today

    How many cord does that make now?

    my measly stack puts me at the 12 cord split mark. I think that’s still way shy where it needs to be.
