I need your help i have recieved the blessing of my boss "wife" to build a wood shed close to my OWB. I was wondering if some of you that have pics of your wood sheds would care to share with me and others. At the moment i am at the exploring phase. please help a fellow wood burner.
 
Here is the start of mine. We set the rest of the poles today and some of the trusses. We got rained out. Hopefully tomorrow we will set the rest of the trusses and all the per-lings.

Here's a pic of mine with and without wood. I had a thread about this shed shortly after I finished it. All 2x6 and 4x4 construction with a steel roof. $353 dollars at Menards. Holds 10.5 cords by volume.

Here is a carport I got for $ 400 from a hardware store that went out of business. I got lucky that the carport matched the color of my OWB. I bought some additional metal siding and will be closing in the ends. I plan on installing some of the mesh material they use for ridge vents on the vertical siding overlap to allow air to flow into the wood shed - but still keep bugs and rain out. I installed some OSB on the inside to keep the stacked wood from denting or breaking the metal siding. I mowed the grass short, sprayed for termites, installed a sheet of plastic for a vapor barrier and then placed gravel down on the floor prior to laying down pressure treated 2x4's and then I screwed rough cut pine for a floor. I sprayed the floor with motor oil thinned with diesel fuel to make it less tasty to bugs.
