I am going to have limited workshop time over the next couple of weeks. I now need to pull down one of my wood stores due to damage from the winds. It has done well as it has been up for so long. Lost the roof to start with but luckily not directly over the wood and bowl blanks
My wife and I have just emptied half of it today and piled it in my other wood store.

Will try to finish the emptying tomorrow and then measure up and get some wood to start building again this one is for the wood that is dry so will need limited air circulation.

If I remember will post some photos

Hope things have settled down a bit over there Peter I hear that the blue mountains have had over 300mm lately better than the fires. Still emptying the store managed to get the majority moved today but still more to move before measuring up for the rebuild I may just squeeze in a bit extra space, I wonder if the wife will notice:whistling::whistling::whistling:
