I need some advice on building a shed to hold at least 5 cords of wood. Are there any websites where I can get drawings and all. So happy I found this forum thanks everyone
 
Look at the shed thread, you should be able to get some great ideas there, some of these guys have built A1 sheds.
 
No drawings or plans as such, but we have a zillion members here who have constructed nearly every imaginable sort of woodshed. Try the search function, you might be amazed at what you find. Have fun! Rick
 
The great thing about a woodshed is that it's pretty hard to mess it up . . . so many different ways you can go with it. It can be a simple open-sided affair built out scrap wood and salvaged materials . . . a rustic pallet shed . . . or a Taj Ma Woodshed that you look at and think "Gee Whiz . . . if that woodshed had a refrigerator I could live in that!"

As folks mentioned . . . type in wood shed under the search engine here and you'll find a bazillion different threads showing completed woodsheds, woodsheds in the process of being built, inquiries on wood sheds, etc.

As stated earlier . . . there isn't too much that is hard and fast when it comes to wood sheds . . . maybe make sure the roof can support the weight of the snow/wind, the floor should be rugged or have good drainage and make sure the significant other is OK with the design.
