I guess there's a silver lining to this virus cloud. The grand kids are hunkered down, the gym is closed, restaurants are closed to eat in customers, the library is closed, and the store shelves look like a zombie movie. The general is rolling out her Easter decorations and I get to work in my shop ALL DAY!!! Being a packrat I never pass a piece of steel or aluminum at the dump or anywhere else without grabbing it. Next thing I know I'm awash in stock with about 400 lbs of it in my wheel barrow which I can no longer move and it was planted in my garage like man's monument to cheapness! Anyhoo I built a rack in the garage which freed up my wheel barrow, took all the stock, and even provided storage for the fireplace wood. The shelves digested the stock so well that now I feel I don't have enough! I'm really enjoying this free time and already started my next project this AM.DSC_0211.JPG
 
Funny how stuff stacked takes up so much less room. looks good. :)
 
What’s that funny brown stuff on the floor ;)
Looks great. I need to do the same thing.

"Inferior dead tree carcass". Ok ok, not my words. Although I don't mess with it much it certainly has it's great uses.
 
I burn up to a cord of wood a winter (and I live in Ga). Not so much for heat but I just love an active fireplace. Last couple of years more like a half cord but still a lot of wood.

Yeah, we enjoy a fire periodically and the grand kids love roasting marsh mellows. Not much good for heat up here in Ct. though. It's toasty right in front of the fireplace but the heat from the rest of the house goes roaring up the chimney.
 
I've burned up 15.7 tons of coal so far this winter heating my house and shop. I purchased 5.52 tons Monday, that should last the season and have enough fire up in the fall. It's one heck of an upper body workout. Coal and Ash every four days when It's in the low teens at night.
