Original ideas for compact woodcutters: photo selection

The wood-burning stove for heating and cooking has become a real exotic. In 2019, 68% of the country's territory has already been gasified, which means that after some 20 years we will not meet the good old stoves at all. Now the stove has more decorative purpose than practical. In this regard, the need to build huge storage sheds has disappeared - they have been replaced by compact woodsheds.

Tasks performed by the woodcutter

In the classical sense, a woodshed is a free-standing room for storing firewood. Its tasks: to protect the wood fuel from precipitation and moisture, as well as to provide quick drying of firewood due to good ventilation. The peculiarities of the woodburner can be considered the presence of gaps in the walls that create air circulation.

There were two reasons why the woodsheds were built away from home. The first: fire hazard - the adjoining warehouse of dry firewood could catch fire from sparks from the pipe. Second: wood-boring insects - beetles can get from the firewood on the walls of the house, which will be happy to damage real estate.

Compact woodbeds

A modern compact wood stove performs all the same functions, but is equipped with some novelties. For example, it is divided into sections. For what? In order not to confuse different types of firewood. Fuel for a fireplace, barbecue or bath differs in properties and here you can decompose them into separate cells. It is very comfortable!

And also a compact woodshed can be easily placed under a canopy or closer to the barbecue area. It can be made in the form of shelves on which firewood will be stored instead of the usual things. This design will fit perfectly inside the room - you get a hybrid of a decorated wall and a natural air aroma.

What can you make a compact woodshed

For the manufacture of this simple design, both metal and wood are suitable. For example, a profiled pipe goes well for these purposes - a light and reliable frame can be made from it. The best material for a canopy will be a professional sheet.

You can combine materials, using brick as an improvised foundation, timber and boards for the frame, and make a canopy of metal. If you use wood to build a structure, it should be treated with an antiseptic.
