Show us your timber storage

[Tusses]

more in the corner and back wall

where do you keep yours ?

 

[Philly]

Cheers

This is mine that I built about 6 weeks ago. The space underneath is big enough to store 8'x4' panels underneath.

The idea was copied from a book that I have and I know a few others on here have done the same.

Regards

I have that book too - just no where big enough to build that rack !

This will be an interesting thread.

You do realise that with wood being a 'live' material it just keeps on growing - it does in my shed anyway :lol:

Haven't got any pictures but I have a separate garage where mine is stored, but it's getting a bit tight in there

Philly,

I see you've got the same filing cabinet as WiZeR. What do you store in yours?

regards

Brian

Hi Tusses,
I think this is an excellent idea for a thread.
Timber storage is always a problem for me and i'm sure i'm not the only one.
Its surprising that there has only been a few responses. perhaps no-one has any timber to store :shock:
I will try and get some pics of my storage.

Cheers,
Gary.

WiZer, :lol: :lol: :lol:

Martin,

Brian, im not a woodyard, this is my own personal stash i have built it up and used it up over the last couple of years. every time i go to a timber merchant i always come away with more than i intended getting.
Although most times i go i am buying stock for a job i am doing, so i always get something extra and hide it in the customers price 8)

A lot of it has been too good a bargain to refuse, for example approx 50 cubic ft of native beech, half of which was already sized and planed up to 2" x 6" x 12ft lengths, for less than a weeks wage ( im not on big wages).
25, 5ft lengths of 6"x1" (finished) Elm for ............. well i wont say because you wouldnt believe me :lol:
Cheers,
Gary.

Here are some pics of one of my unorganised stashes, I don't get down to Gloucester enough to sort things out. Mainly Elm, Cedar and Walnut.
The last picture is a friends store that he built himself, it has Pitch Pine, Cedar and Elm in it.
