What a full $200 wood rack looks like

[thinkxingu]

Greetings,
Got my wood rack filled this morning- with another pile and this, I'm up to about four years ahead with about two years's worth to be split still (nowhere to put it!). All scrounge- haven't bought since I started burning.

Peace!

Very nice wood shed! Even nicer being years ahead with its content!

The only problem with being years ahead is that your life is empty and has no meaning until it's time to start scrounging, bucking, splitting, and stacking again!

Dan,
You're right--but it's only because I've got another rack and pile ready. Once those are gone, I'll be c/s/s each year for the year or two after.

Also, just a note: when I planned to build this out of 2 x 4's, I did it thinking I would make vertical stacks at each corner and fill in between so there would be no weight left/right or forward/back. It seemed to work well as there is no bowing anywhere.

That's a very neat wood shed, Mrs Woodchip now wants to know why mine isn't that tidy........ ;-)

Very nice shed. I do see 1 problem though, I think here is room for a couple more splits on the right side.

Very nice. It is a great feeling one gets from looking at his neatly stacked wood.

Very nice "roofed rack" AKA "wood shed"
Good job!

Nice rack and even nicer being 4 years ahead.

Looks good . . . and affordable to boot.

Got anymore pics of the wood shed? In progress or empty ones? I'm planning on building one in the spring. Got a Harman P61A pellet stove and an old inefficient woodstove but will upgrade that in the next few years so I want to build a shed like yours in the spring so I can start accumulating wood. Looking to build one that will hold about 2-3 cord.

I can't image being 4 years ahead on wood.
But you gotta make hay while the sun shines.

Give you $250 for it with the wood. Thats a 25% gain on your part.

I figure what the heck, tis almost Christmas Season and I can be generous.

Agreed with the above - a very nice looking shed, especially full of wood!

We finished building our shed this summer - 3 bays and sized so that each bay is around 1 year's worth of wood. We just need to get her filled up!

i like how you stack them chunks and uglies in there looks good.!

eco, what ended up working well is that I can fit 20" pieces in stacks on all four corners of each side, 20" pieces in between the stacks and then, in the very front, any smaller stuff. I think this will give me some good shoulder-season stuff, and I won't have to toss much, if anything.
