When we replaced the carport with a garage, the carport moved to the north
edge of the property, and now is half full of wood, the rest is full of
carts, trailers, wagons, potting soil and the such.

The Paviliion was a napkin design, sketched until it 'looked right'. Once the

My plan is essentially half of your pavilion, with a more shallow roof. The

The Wood Pavilion is very nice, and I only bought plywood, nails, roofing, and
lights. The poles were cut on-site,
the fill dirt, rocks, and concrete curbing sections (steps and benches)
LOL, like using an old VW bus as a chicken coop.

This summer I'm going to build something similar but to cover all my firewood.
I've used a variety of different stacking styles over the years but having a
tin roof is better than all of them. Right now I'm planning basically what you

Build a rack:
http://curtsotherblog.blogspot.com/2015/10/wood-rack-part-many.html
I've got one of these at home and 2 at camp. Holds enough for a whole week at
camp, about half a cord depending on how long your wood is. The stove at camp
uses short wood so the slats have to be about 10" apart.
Then that shall be the plan, get this burned up as much as possible this
winter.

You need a fireplace insert type wood stove with an integrated blower to
minimize sending your home's warm air up the chimney.

You need to burn that up. If it's jumbled and in the rain it's rotting
and growing bugs. Properly stored neatly stacked on its sides, wood
grain straws _not_ in the mud, with a rain hat. It's all about keeping dry.

My stash of fire wood is at least 4-5 years old. I initially had it stacked up
next to the fence but it fell over a while back. In other words it’s just in a
big pile now. Some of it is started to rot so I think I’m just going to start
using the fireplace and use it up. I will then get wood

The other one had a different blade intended for brush.

Most of them are as fast as they are unsafe.

It depends on the wood. If it's cooperative the axe is
indeed faster, but I find, here, that it is rarely so.
Most of what we have around here is Ponderosa pine,
which has twisty bobcat pretzel grain, especially at
the butt end. Nasty
