Built the shed last spring ('10) and loaded it up. The side walls were bowing out under the load of wood leaning on them, so I made up my mind to build plain old stud walls to replace the pole barn type setup. Much stronger at resisting side loads.
I didn't do the left side of the shed, but rather cross stacked the ends of the stacks to see how that would work. Had a couple that couldn't handle the weight of wood pushing on them and they went a little sideways on me. My fault...I got lazy and wasn't paying attention.
Anyway, I needed to do this before I load the rest of the wood in there, so off I went. Yesterday, I spent some time trying to level the floor inside, since the slope goes front to back AND left to right. You can see the way the ladder is sitting. Also, took down the wall planks.
Today, being not quite as warm, I took the wall apart and did the stud work. Planks go back on tomorrow. Then, the floor gets more work before the pallets go in, then more fun.....bringing wood in from the back stacks.
Not sure I like the cross stacked ends for the shed. Seems like there's wasted space, and I don't want that in the shed. I want as much wood in there as possible. Looks like there will be close to 7 cord when I get done.
