Sorry to hear that

 

So am I Gerry but can do little about it , I'll bank it up against the house and make use of it to cut down on the heating bill.

 

Happy Tuesday mornin'all. Sherm. We get our firewood from Swan river also. Tandem dump trailer full of Birch. We get it from Inter Mountain. Well worth the trip. Just got back from power shopping with Kalan. I think I'm done I just got to run to Shopper's tonight for stocking stuffer's. Have a great day guy's.

 

Good all that luerj here.
A neighbour was talking about putting two C cans 30-40 ft apart then putting rafters over the space in between plus a third sea can as the back wall. I want to check this out to see how it turned out.

 

Evening boys. Safely to and from Swan River with our firewood. This is our 2nd load, I think its the same place you get from Grant. The whole family works for the Intermountain company I think. John runs the grapple loading the wood. Pretty good guy and a real slick operator with that grapple. My toque was covering my eyes a bit so I got him to pull it back a bit I like how they run their wood through a tumbler, it cleans it up pretty good. They keep that yard fairly clean. I use my 20' car hauler for the wood. I built 2' stake sides on it and it works out to 1.9 cords in a heaping tossed load. The 5.0 works like a charm for towing.


Spent another hour or so in the garage this evening, things are slowly coming together in there.


Morris, be sure and take a pic of that contraption!! I'd be real interested in seeing the finished product.


Have a great evening boys!!

 

You should have put the .1 cord in the back of the truck sherm and take a full 2 cords... I love the smell of birch burning, nice sweet smell..

 

Sea can garage, I almost bought property to do this,
Images for sea can garage

 

I did this one year, about 11 years ago. It was all fine until a flash melt and I didn't have a way of getting it away from the house faster than it was melting so guess what? Yep...it all ended up in the basement. Not good times.


Probably do a little wood stacking today and a little work in the shop again.


That's a really cool idea for storage eh Gerry?


Have a great day guys!!

 

I was thinkin the same thing when I read that S

 

That is actually a great idea, I'd enclose the center section as my main garage and have one as a side shop and the other for storage.

 

I don't have that problem sherm, no basement.

 

Happy Hump Day mornin'all Jordan is now off for the holiday, and the 3 of us are going to finish the rink today. Those sea cans are ideal . I like John's thinking of putting the shop in the centre. I'd also use one can for like a small machine/ fab shop. I need to do something in my yard to make a winter sorage for my 56 and keep my yard equipment stored. I'll take some pictures, and see what you guy's think. have a great day guy's.

 

Hey Grant, can you drive past your existing garage now to get in your back yard, I remember you saying something about a water line or something like that. I really like the idea of those containers , you could even hide future projects in them..

 

Those sea cans are great, pretty much bullet proof too,
yes I was gonna have a shop between the cans

then I figured the tax & all on a second property & decided to build my new garage at home

 

I wish I had seen that idea about 10 years ago, that's what I would have done on my spare lot.
