You might prefer to buy a ready made log store unless your handy with your hammer and saw.
These are
available in wood and in a variety of sizes
Please remember to order one big enough to house your usual load size of wood , and keep in mind that you might want to place the log shed in a position that is
convenient for wood deliveries as well as gathering
your fire wood on a regular basis
You might want to have two stores to divide your fire wood into two different sections - one containing seasoned wood ready to use & one with wood which requires further seasoning
Also remember that it is always a good idea to have a log basket inside the house.
This basket should be big enough to house logs for a few days so that you will be able to make sure the logs are dried off further just prior to being used
