“ Those who burn firewood come to deeply understand the attraction to it. When we participate in this ancient ritual of the making of fire, we join in a long history of direct connection to the earth, to the forces of nature, and to our very survival.” - Glenn Nystrup

50 years of storing wood in style

I first burned wood in campfires as a boy, in Connecticut and Vermont. It wasn’t until I moved to the more wide open spaces of the North Country in New York State, in the early 1970’s, that burning firewood became serious. Living just a few miles from Ontario, we often saw the temperature sink to negative 30 degrees F and deeper still.

The Famous Treehouse

The building of a structure in the trees, capable of holding up to a dozen people at one time, must be solid. Here the boys learn about what it means to build in this solid way—as compared to taking short-cuts with the quality of materials or construction.

What Will Make My Shed the Happiest?

A happy shed will function as it was meant to do, look great, add to property value, and keep it up for many years to come. Here are some of the factors:

Do I need a Gravel Pad?

A gravel or crushed-stone pad is one of the best ways to go for your shed. It is not needed, but here are some considerations.

Another Blanket of Snow

If you have firewood under tarps then this is not a welcome event. Another blanket of snow means more buried wood, vulnerable to deterioration and loss of BTU heat potential.

Bonjour Glenn,

Merci for the plans. Fantastic. I was not going to start this project without it! Just waiting for the snow to go away now!! Long winter this year here in the Laurentians.

Glenn, We are thrilled with the woodshed.

We made two small modifications: continuous floor and increased the overhang for runoff.

Thank you again,

Hi Glenn: all is complete and looks great.

Your plans were great along with all your tips. I even used the trim idea which was a very nice touch.

(GN) Very nice! Well done. Did your daughter help?

(Jesse) She actually did! Her hands were great for reaching through the floor and grabbing my spacing blocks every time I dropped them putting up the slats.

Cheers!

Attached are some pictures of my son's Eagle project build. The beneficiary of Matthew's Eagle Scout project loves the design and the quality of our build. We will send a couple more pictures after we get sign-off.

I have to tell you - this was such an awesome project! Your plans were perfect and I'm so happy with the finished product. I almost want to build another one even though I don't need it. I purposely built some extra space for easy storage of some seat cushions and such.

Here are some pictures. Feel free to share. 10 out of 10 on the plans and FAQs. I'm a bit of a novice/intermediate builder but you made things very easy to follow if you have the right tools.

Thanks again.

The shed is absolutely spectacular. Exactly what we were looking for – solid design, built for the ages.

Thanks for everything,

I am so very happy with my amazing Utility Shed 👍

I can't thank you, Evan, and Christian enough for the wonderful shed. I admire the creativity and professional craftsmanship. What a beautiful work of art! I feel so fortunate to have this one-of-a-kind shed to view with my "view".

Thank you, again,
