Wood Shed

So i called the town today to ask them about building a wood shed on my property. They told me if its less than 100 sqft and shorter than 9 feet high, i dont need a permit. I have a spot next to my shed where I can build a shed of this size. It's on a slight slope, but no biggy as I would dig footings. I enter these dimensions, minus a few inches on the sides and 6" on top just to be safe into a cord calculator and it tells me I can fit just over 6 cords of wood into it.

Is that a realistic calculation or am i way off?

How long is the wood you cut?
this will determine the width of your shed. 8x 12.5 or 10 x 10 etc.

The length of what I have split now and the rounds I have currently are less than 18". Most of them probably fall into the 12-16" length. Now that I have my own saw, I keep the rounds between 14"-16" as best I can.

Wow, this really got the wheels turning in my head.

Build 2, then no worries.

8' X 12' a good size. Less cutting dimensional lumber
I used pier block for footings & a pallet floor.

I really like the look of this one and it's simplicity.

Thanks for posting!

Great that you don't have to worry about permits. That also probably means you won't get taxed on it.
