      farm emo: ordered tarps to cover firewood...Amazon 2nd day prime somehow turned into 9th day delivery 6" of snow and ice atop firewood. Tarps atop that. 6 MORE inches on top of that. FFFFfffff I really need to build that firewood shed I've got planned. Not small, not cheap.

      2/ you've seen the pix of the firewood pile, so no need to post again. 2 rows. Each row has four 8' x 16' platforms, with 4' aisles between. I.e. I need two sheds, each ~20' x 50' Roofing cost alone adds up. But that big, wants concrete sonotube piers below frost line, etc

      3/ ...so I've got this generalized anxiety of "it really is the right solution / I need this" warring against "G_d DAMN it, that's too much money, I gotta stop pissing money away on infrastructure" Sigh. Guess I gotta work up a spreadsheet, find the hard numbers.

      something like that, yep 12/12 pitch is way to steep - 20' depth would mean 20' rise, giving a front edge height of 8' + 20' = 28', which would block lots of windows on house prob closer to 2/12 pitch (need to measure my run-in sheds)

      but if poles are spaced as a row of 5 poles every 10' and then another row spaced 16' away from them, and 20' long rafters (to account for pitch + overhang), then headers are going to be BEEFY, and rafters too...then purlins across rafters to hold sheet metal roof LOTS of lumber

      ....and then that's 1,000 ft^2 of shadow, so I'll need some lights in there bc I do half my firewood work at night so now we're talking about running conduit, installing lights, etc.

          certainly at some level If you have to go outside twice per day and duck under a tarp, and snow falls off and lands on your head and goes down back of jacket, and under tarp is pitch black, and snow has blown between logs so you bring out two logs then scrape ice off ...
