transcript: Hello and welcome, I’m Carl the landscape guy and today I’ll be building a simple, low-cost and functional firewood storage shed. I will explain everything step by step and show the entire process in detail. Like in many of my other videos, I will mostly do the work without using big machinery. Of course this will take longer, but this way the shed will be easy to replicate with clear and simple steps. We start here at the property line where the firewood shed will be built. The old overgrown wire mesh fence on the property line will be removed. The backside of the new firewood shed will be the border to the neighbor. Therefore I have to make room here for the time being. At this point I want to mention that it always makes sense to discuss such a building project with the neighbors concerned and also with the town hall for possible necessary building permits. Overgrown branches and twigs are easily removed with the lopper or branch cutter. Now I begin to dismantle the fence, starting with the heavy steel beams, which were used as fence posts. With the cutting pliers I open the fence. The fence is not so easy to remove, it seems to have been buried here, so I dig it out with a spade. Then the wire fencing can be pulled out easily. I also remove roots that are in the way and a tree which is too close to the property line has to be cut down. To prevent it from falling on the house I attach a pulling rope and cut a small felling wedge. Now it is quite easy to pull it in the desired direction. Disassemble it, take it away and clean the area. No wood is wasted here and it will be added to the firewood pile. Now these two root stumps have to be removed. Normally you would do this with an excavator but I want to show you how to do it with physical strength. For this I use a manual winch, which I attach to a big tree nearby. The steel rope is put around the root to be removed, so that it can be tightened. With the help of the rod I pull the rope slowly through and thus the roots can be pulled out relatively well. From time to time I cut off the roots with a sharp spade. The two roots are out and I cut them up with the chainsaw and try not to touch the sandy roots or ingrown wires. It is already dark, so I’ll continue the next day. Now that the space for the new wood storage is finally free, I hammer in metal stakes and mark the property line with a string. To support the posts, I will use these 9cm wide H-anchors. They will be set in concrete like this later and I will see what height makes sense here. The H anchors keep the wooden posts from touching the soil.
