Just built a wood shed about a month ago. About half full of 5+ years seasoned ash, oak and mulberry.

Some larger pieces that will only fit in my basement fireplace and then some small and odd shaped pieces in front of that stack. About a cord or so of some mix of locust, black walnut, maple and mulberry that I bought. Some bucked ash waiting to be split sits in front of some super old almost punky maple that i use in campfires. About 5 cords dumped in my driveway waiting to be stacked on pallets next to the other stack.

Have no idea how many cords in total or how long it will last me since this is my first season burning. Only wood bought it the stacked stuff by the fence, everything else was free besides the time to buck and split.

getting errors on my picture uploads. Will keep trying
 
Pictures are working for me!

Shed looks good! Are those posts sitting on/ in concrete? looks like that was fun to level.. ;)
 
I have a question... I see a lot of stacks that are three rows deep. How do you ever get to the back stack while keeping the supply coming in?

I can access both sides. About 3 feet between garage and the stacks

Very nice. looks like you've got some fun in store.
 
Great setup and good thinking on the foundation.
Wood is some seriously heavy stuff when it congregates with it's friends.
My lower rails bowed before the stacks were 4 feet high. (outdoor open stack elevation)
