Woodshed is done

Finally got to cross "build a wood shed" off my to do list. Needed to keep it simple and cheap so i went with pallet floor, picket fence for ends walls and recycled deck boards for the roof frame. I did end up splurging for brown metal roofing panels at menards for $110 so it looked nicer up behind the house. Holds about 4 cords of wood and only 12 steps outside from where stove will be for easy winter access.



kinda debating whether to screw the roof down or just toss some bricks up there to hold it down. Be nice for filling to be able to just slide a few sections of roof aside and out of the way.


and heres my 2015-16 wood drying. Bought a couple metal roof sections for covering that. Im trying to get away from the plastic tarp covering on the right pile there as i hate how water pools in pockets and sits when i use it. My buddy sells garage doors and gets me 10ft long pallets which work good for stacking wood on. Now i just need to cut and fill the rest of it with wood by winter and i should finally be 3 yrs head.

its got a slight pitch so rain drains off.

it was a basement window at some point i think. It's cemented off on the inside of the basement wall. I kinda forgot all about it. Now with this built i can keep 4 cords right by the back door and 5 cords in the basement. Yeah charlie we get a lot of snow so im thinking i'd probably be smart to screw the tin all down. Maybe if i do that i won't have to build it twice like i usually do all my building projects. The first time "my way" and then the 2nd time the "right way".
