rain on my stacks

[Rob_the_Sparky]

I've made a small ish log store ~0.8m^3 from scrap wood at a cost of a bag of nails and some large screws.  You could probably do the same on a larger scale if you have the spare time.  Main posts are from fence posts that have rotten off (cut off the bottom and you get a 5'6" to 6' post) and most places are more than happy to give you these.  Roof made from over lapping planks recovered from old pallets.  The most expensive bit was a can of paint but the most important bit was the wife approved, I'm told it looks much better than a stack of old boxes that we got paving slabs in (turned on their sides).  Can't imagine why...

Polytunnel?

 

My logs dry over spring / summer in a polytunnel, though they still get a bit soggy at this time of year when the wind drops and the air is damp. (Not much sun on the tunnel at this time of year either). A day or so in the house / by the fire and they should be OK again.

I'd love a poly tunnel. I have considered doing some hill billy solar kilning using pallet wrap.  However, for now, I work away steadily and keep 2 years ahead.
