Good Evening Sir, Yes wood shed are the best and ventilation and Sun Exposure are THE VITAL FACTOR for drying firewood 😇👍👌Weather protection is very important too and Your Wood Shed design is Very Good 👌👌👍👍😇😇OUTSTANDING INFORMATIVE VIDEO SIR Cheers 🍻🍻
Last winter I didn't use my woodshed at all. I took wood directly from covered drying racks to an attached garage. I can stack an entire heating season in the garage and don't have to make trips through the snow for firewood.
Did I miss what your dimensions were? I think you said 16 ft wide. How deep and how tall is your roof? I might consider building something similar but just trying to consider my own yard.
Boy Case, touching the third rail here! Can't wait to see the comments!👍🏻 For the record, I'm now a tote fan. It took me 19 years of pulling wood from stacks in my shed to feed my Hardy H4. Totes, as long as you have the equipment, are game changers for a one-legged guy.
Hey Kevin, very cool man. I have twenty 330 gallon totes. I do like them, but I like the woodshed a little bit more. I think if I could drop a tote by my stove or into a walk out basement I’d prefer them more.
@BuildALotAcres Agree, I occasionally set two by the stove opening. One with the opening directly opposite the door. If we have a big storm projected, I'll set one 90° to that one with the opening accessible to my immediate right while standing at the door of the stove. Leaving one 90° all the time isn't my preference since I like to check the back of the stove for temp, water level, etc.
Only Oak?`Jesus , where du you live? Narnia? Most of the Oak trees here in Scandinavia and north-europe was used up in the middle ages. I read that it took like 5000 big Oak trees to build one british warship in the 16th century. But thanks for video, im gonna build a similar one for my birch wood. xD
These woodsheds are awesome, but they all get loaded back to front, which means all the most seasoned wood is always in the back. I'm thinking I need a woodshed that's open and accessible on both sides so I can continuously fill it up, but always have access to the most seasoned wood, if that makes sense
Without something solid to stack the wood against, it’s much more likely to topple over time as it settles, shrinks, and shifts. You could try making dividers to make “cubicles” of wood
I love your woodshed, it looks like a very efficient and effective way to store and season your wood. I’m going to have to watch more of your videos on the construction of it. You mentioned that with your new 4 bay design that it holds 24 cords. What are the outside dimensions of the structure? Please and thank you.
Thanks. I built it before I started doing TH-cam, so no videos on the construction, sorry. It’s 8 full cords, not 24. The dimensions are 6’w x 7’ h x 32’ l.
Thanks 🙏 The back rows still seem to season pretty well. 3 rows deep is about as deep as I wanted to go for that reason. I burn a lot of Oak, and it does well
The posts are 4x4’s. They sit on concrete blocks buried in the ground. The floor frame also sits on top of the concrete blocks inside the posts and is also attached to the sides of the posts. I’ve had quite a few people ask. Maybe I’ll do a video about it 👍
The problem i have with stacking wood on pallets or blocks just a couple inches off the ground is wood chucks! (Ground hogs) When i finally get a chance to build a wood shelter, I plan on making it a raised platform ....at least a foot off the ground. Yes, I can shoot them too. But they can dig a hole in a couple hours. They dig under concrete too. I have gone on vacation and come back to find a couple new wood chuck mounds. They don't dig anywhere thats exposed....hence the raised platform idea!
We presently have a box style woodshed. I couldn't agree more. We are going to be relocating, building a new woodshed, and are definitely going to build the long skinny shed style. Great video Case👍,Ben
No worries. Figured I’d ask. The style of yours is what I plan to build. The main thing I’m not sure about is if I want to actually build a floor off the ground for it or just put some gravel and pallets down.
@@jcburch44 My floor frame is pressure treated 4x4’s that sit on top of the concrete post blocks. Then 1” thick decking over the 4x4’s. Not having a floor would save time and money and would eliminate the worry about the weight of the wood. I’d use plastic pallets if doing that route. I think it’s a good idea

How much wood would you say that is in cords?
@@CanadianPrepper 8 full cords

Very nice. Sounds like a good setup.
Did I miss what your dimensions were? I think you said 16 ft wide. How deep and how tall is your roof? I might consider building something similar but just trying to consider my own yard.
The shed is 32' long x 6' deep. The roof in back is about 6.5' high, and the front roof is 8' high

Thanks for your perspective. Lots to think about in the construction of our new woodshed 👍

My shed is long and skinny like yours, but I put dividers every 8 feet, creating bins. This makes it easier to use the most seasoned wood first.
Great idea. I intend to do the same thing. I also like to organize by species sometimes 👍
I have always liked the design and looks of your woodshed. Great information, thanks. I wish we had enough snow to have to worry about snow loadings 🙂
Thanks Joseph 🙏
32 feet long by how many feet deep and height?
6 feet deep and 8 feet high front to 6.5 feet back

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
@@secondchancecomposting 🙏
Great video Case. Which way do you think dries wood better.
Stacked or plied like a pyramid.
Not in a building or covered.
Have a good day.
I think stacks dry better than loose piles generally. Especially if kept off the raw ground. th-cam.com/video/DEamy2vWLCY/w-d-xo.html

How much wood can you fit in there? Wonder how much it would cost to build something like this
8 full cords. Price will depend on where you live and how much you can source used
Killer looking wood shed. How does the wood season without facing the sun and being blocked by the wood in front? Does oak season faster in your shed?
Thanks 🙏 The back rows still seem to season pretty well. 3 rows deep is about as deep as I wanted to go for that reason. I burn a lot of Oak, and it does well
Do you have plns available for your woodshed?
I'm sorry, I do not
Do you by chance have the building plans for this so I can replicate it?
I'm sorry, I do not
How are the support posts fastened to the floor beam?
The posts are 4x4’s. They sit on concrete blocks buried in the ground. The floor frame also sits on top of the concrete blocks inside the posts and is also attached to the sides of the posts. I’ve had quite a few people ask. Maybe I’ll do a video about it 👍
Dry wood burns best! Good video!

Get a big dog; problem solved xD.
what is the distance between rafters?
24” oc
That shit is beautiful 😍

Thanks Ben. When you say relocating, you mean moving entirely?
@@BuildALotAcres We are going to be building a new woodshed in a different location. The old woodshed is do to be replaced.
@@whenworkisplay Ah… I thought you meant you guys were moving entirely to a new property.
This is my dream wood shed. Love it. Greetings from Cape Cod
🙏
How many cords can your shed hold?
@@nikeflight17 8 full cords.
Makes sense.
Thanks 🙏
Do you have a plan for your shed you would be willing to share?
I’m sorry, I do not have any plan.
No worries. Figured I’d ask. The style of yours is what I plan to build. The main thing I’m not sure about is if I want to actually build a floor off the ground for it or just put some gravel and pallets down.

I had not considered plastic pallets. I will look into those for sure. Thanks for the idea!
Here where I live, City ordinance required 18" off the ground for
Termite control! How would you Comply to build ordinance?
Use pressure treated lumber. Building Code allows for it. If you’re talking about the firewood itself, I’d move
The firewood has to be 18" off the ground. Indianapolis, Indiana.
@@dancutter8197 Sorry to hear that. I guess you could make a small woodshed that’s elevated.

How much does 1 oak cord of wood weight?
HOW THAT KEEPS THE EOOD DRIED ??? VERY STUPID
🤣🤣🤣
