Had this 20'x40' wood shed 'go live' late last summer. The two bays in the back are full (about 15 cords). Once the rest of the 'walls' are filled, it will have about 18 or so cords in it. Also makes a good carport :)

A beauty.
 
Nice shed
 
Nice, looking to do something similar here. Noticed the trusses. Custom design, kit, or what?
 
Aren't you worried about wood drying slower in a middle of the stack? What about mice and other guests building nests in it?
Never mind. It's just jealousy talking. Way too nice for a "wood shed".:)

My town would tax me on this thing.:(

Very nice looking. Someday I might get something up that will look half that nice.
 
Great looking woodshed you have there, you have an impressive amount of firewood drying as well. Way to go!

Yes it was custom built.

As far as mice go - better they make their home here 100' feet from the house :)

The wood is not stacked tight against each other. Each bay consists off 11 separate stacks separated by about 6" each and there is good airflow. I think it'll dry just fine. Much better than when they had a tarp covering them.

Thanks for the feedback!
