Usually, if it is not possible to build a separate indoor premise for storing firewood in a summer cottage, they are stored on the ground. However, in this case, they become damp and rot, and in the winter they freeze in such a way that they cannot be torn off by hands. In such a situation, a compact hinged mini-wood truck, which can be made of two barrels, is useful.
To cut barrels into parts and fix in the right place (on the wall of a house or a barn), you need very little time, but the benefits of such a makeshift design will be much more. In such a wood chopper, you can store both firewood and trim boards, which are good to melt a bath or barbecue.
The process of making a firewood
For this homemade product you will need two 200-liter metal barrels that need to be cut into three identical parts. To do this, first do the markup, take the angle grinder in your hands and get to work. When the barrels are cut, mark the surface of the wall of the shed and fasten the rings close to each other in three tiers.
That, in fact, is all the work. Then it remains only to fill the fixed rings with firewood and replenish the "strategic reserves" as necessary. It turned out to be very practical and convenient, but the most important thing is that a home-made firewood from metal barrels does not occupy free square meters on the land. Perhaps this is one of its main advantages.
Such a woodcutter is useful not only in the country house, but also on the territory of a private house - for example, next to the bathhouse. Write in the comments below the video what you think about this unusual idea. How else can you use metal barrels with a volume of 200 liters on the farm?
