After another year of heavy snow my shed just couldn't stand anymore. Likely a cord still inside yet to retrieve. Well, on the bright side now I can justify a nice carport to replace it.

Auf Wiedersehen, little wood shed.
 
Those little metal pre-fab buildings are such trash. I bought one to use as a tool shed and it leaks like a sieve, crinkles like tin foil, and holds more bugs than tools. This is probably a blessing in disguise.

Have you thought about building your own shed? It's not difficult if you have a skilsaw, speed square, tape measure, hammer, and about 30 bucks worth of nails.

Build one like mine. Dries the wood. Looks good.
Ah, yes, the wood sauna. Saw where you posted about that before. Intriguing concept, proving that ambient temp trumps all other drying factors. It's a solar kiln, but without a bunch of noxious plastic involved, and it's permanent.
You don't need all that much air blowing through the wood, if ya got temp..
