These brackets served as the foundation for a roofed wood pile, and they provide a sturdy foundation for any size wood pile. I used 8' PT 2x4s, but I could have gone a little further. A couple of extra 2x4s and some 8-foot lengths of cedar fencing were used to frame and build the roof. I live in Oregon, so I wanted something that would keep the rain off, but even without the roof, the brackets should be fine and rigid enough for a 4'-0" x 4'-0" x 4'-0" x 4'-0" x 4'-0" x 4'-0 Wood pile with a height of 5'.
This is fantastic. I've constructed woodsheds from the ground up in the past. These were purchased to store a small amount of wood on my porch - a short distance from the entrance - for convenient access on chilly winter evenings br>These are extremely sturdy metal supports (others sell plastic - see below). so be cautious! )br>Along the base, I used 8' long 2x4s. It's simple to get them in. (I'm not sure why some people are complaining that they don't fit well. ) With the way lumber swells and varies, this isn't a good idea. )br>They are extremely sturdy once you add a couple of good 8 wood screws. The best part is that it will easily disassemble for storage in the spring, allowing us to avoid carrying anything large and bulky.
When I first opened the box, I noticed that the posts were not welded on straight. The tubing's size isn't suitable for dimensional lumber, in that case. If you try to fit a regular 2x4 into the slots and hoild it into one corner, you'll easily end up with 3/8-inch thick wood. Around the opposite sides, there is a 1/2" gap. Keeping it is simply not worth the trouble. I'm going to send it back.
Now that the backyard is more organized, it looks a lot better. I used horizontals of 10' and a height of about 6'. Only shy or a chord will do.
In less than 2 minutes, you'll be able to complete your task. I made a 4ft wood rack inside near my wood stove out of six scrap 2x4s that were not all the same length. There are three compartments in it. There's enough wood to last five days. They've held up beautifully for the past five months. I'm going to order some more of these for extra porch storage.
This is fantastic. Solid, stable, and strong. It's not even noticeable because I painted it the same color as my deck. It appears to be stacks of firewood. It's a huge improvement over the cheap metal frame I had before.
I'm not sure how much value this adds or what the benefit of his is, but the 2x4 openings are much larger than 2x4, so I had to add a lot more 2x4 reinforcements (in depth dimension and width), effectively eliminating the need for this bracket.
This is the ideal solution for a space that isn't quite right. I can precisely fit it in and be confident that it will meet my firewood stacking needs. And if I need a different layout, all I have to do is cut different sizes of 2x 4s. Also, it's cost-effective.
