Love the design . Simple and most efficient use of materials. I have several like it in varying sizes. The only suggestion I would have is to make some temp removable uprights in center so you could fill right and left sides individually. Empty one side first so any unburnt would be on the other side at seasons end. Then when you refill the empty side leave enough room in front for the unburnt wood moving it to the front and then fill the other now empty side
My understanding is that it's a way to make the rest of us think we did it wrong. I refuse to think that hard.
Well, sir, I've always thought if winds are outa the west and stacking left to right (cut ends facing out the opening of the shed), there mite be benefit leaving a gap between the rows. Conversely, if the shed is built so the wind blows in the open side, should it be stacked so that the cut ends are 90° to the opening and leaving some space between the opposed (to the shed opening) stacks....? Clear as mud, right?
Just glad to hear that it isn't some sort of primer as to which way the wood is loaded into the stove for burning (east/west or north/south?)!!!
Next will be the proper angle of the splits end grain towards the sun and the alignment with the moon on every 3rd thursday
love it! great shed! i need to build one myself. my two year dried cut and split wood is soaked again after days of rain
Beautiful woodshed My IS heats my home and a nice memory for your fire sitting days to come. Hope she loved the fires. Eric VW I find this interesting as most of my wood is in some exposure but if it is placed on the west side of the house its too wet and forces mold! We're talking in a matter of days. Full on wind and mold still forms. However I have been taking the tactic of building my stacks on the east side of my house its further away from what seems to be an enclosure of moisture. In the summer this doesn't matter so much it dries it out. Suppose I should just keep it on the eastside? Seems to work much better than the other but its primer real estate.
Interesting indeed. The west side here, is where our prevailing winds come from, and would be an ideal spot to stack wood, but would be more accessible to wandering marauders looking for some easy pickins. I always find it interesting to hear how weather in different parts of the country affect the drying of firewood.
