Nice build. I built a shed with a similar design, the 2x6 floor joists from side to side were not sufficient enough when I stacked in 3 cords of maple about 8-9000 lbs. I reinforced the floor by doubling up the front and back frame plus added a 4 x4 under the middle on blocks to prevent extreme sagging.
I wish we would have gone 2x8 or 2x10, as we have had some sagging of our base. Reinforced it now so its holding up just fine, but lesson learned for sure!
Good luck! So far it has been great, 1 thing I would have done differently was use minimum 2x8s for the floor joists vs 2x6s Had to put reinforcements underneath. Lesson learned for me!
Thanks! It’s 8’x8’x8’ and I wish we made it slightly bigger because we can’t quite fit all the wood we need for winter. But it’s held up nicely the last few years!
@@CypressSparrowHomestead Thank you. You could extend it a bit. Slightly bigger I will do it. Plan to use it at first as a shed for wood and after as a storage for tools and workbench. Looking forward to relax while doing it 😃

I'm trying to build something like this in my backyard. Great video. Thanks for sharing. New follower here. Crow

Very Nice 👍
Thank you!
Nice job! Turned out great! Now just need to fill it up!🙂
Thank you!
Wow! Great job! 👏
Thank you very much! It was a fun one!
Very nice
Well done!
Thank you very much!
Really great build - probably would’ve left half an inch between floor boards for better air circulation but other than that a solid shed.
Thank you so much! Only regret is we wish we made it a tad larger, but a fun build nonetheless!
Well worked. Congrats! What size is it? 😊

How far away from your house is this firewood shed ???
Looks like it’s gonna leak with all those gaps too
Gaps were intentional to let wind pass through to help in the drying process but small enough to only allow minimal to no water from getting through!
@@CypressSparrowHomestead cool! I had no idea that was a thing
All that for half of one log.
Ha It’s full now don’t worry!
It looks like you are building this on someone else’s property and you afraid of getting caught
Interesting observation 😂 my looking around frantically is me making sure my dogs aren’t running away.
@@CypressSparrowHomestead lol
Should ad rocks sp poles dont roth
