    There's only one thing I like looking at here more than tractors, wagons, & wood haulers. And that is sheds and barns, I love em' , we all never have enough storage space. And that is one great looking set up there BeechNut , I'm really liking the beams, looks old school colonial. :)

    I contemplated it. Probaly will in a few years. Still has some life left in it up top. Figured the roots would help suck up some water for drainage and the canopy it has left will provide some protection from rain. I know, I'm nuts.

    Let you know in a few months. Definitely what I need for winter which is 6-8 cords depending on temps.

    Just an idea, I threw up some cheap LED lights a couple of weeks ago. 12V DC, but food for thought 04148861-4990-41F2-9946-6C97FA20178F.JPG

    I have electric to the shed so I'm going to run it out to the lean to for some lights and outlets. That's why I couldn't run my structure out to the end of the shed because the line from the house is underground and comes in under that front corner and I couldn't sink a post there.

    There is still plenty of time for filling it before winter sets in.
