Making a large pallet wood store

[theschwarz1]

Sorry for the derail but at the foot of the article he talks about having a great season collecting and boiling sap. Any ideas on why and what for?

Here are a few of my posts on making maple syrup. I need to update it to include this years season with the new evaporator in the pallet barn.

This is my set up, (now I've finished them:biggrin:)

 

When I got 2 made

 

 

The finished stack 5 in total each one 1.6 m3

 

 

Pallets were free

Cost, screws, stain, roofing felt, will be making the overhang longer (new bit of sterling board and felt)

hello brian just looked over your wood store picture and maybe and i might be wrong but how about leaving a bigger air gap against the wall so your wood can breath and air dry out

as i see it any water/damp/moisture from that wall could be migrating into your wood store also try stacking your logs loose'r in there pile more airgaps etc only trying to help you out

Here's mine, few free pallets and trimmed round the front with bit of old 4x2 had laying about.

I did pull them out a bit more than the picture shows

I'll take that on board, as a store empties I'll pull it out a couple of inches (not got that much room down the side)
