Easiest Firewood Rack 

Your daughter is precious. So helpful. Love to see her working with Dad. Great memories being made. I did with my Dad and loved helping and doing things with him up till he passed away 2 years ago. I miss that special time with Dad.

My little girl just moved to Florida she was my helper time go's fast so you love that kid .

I am humbled at the simplicity of this. Glad I found this vid, it is just what I needed.

My little girl used to be right by my side just like yours. I miss her so much now that she's gone off to College. Cherish every day with her dad. It will be gone in flash. Great video.

Great job and have pretty much the same. As a 70 year old Grandpa I just about teared up to see your Daughter helping and Supervising the Build.

The daughter Is why I stayed. Adorable with a lesson. Thank you for sharing!

My husband and I needed a solution for firewood storage and we found several options but yours seemed easy enough for even us two old people to make and way less expensive. We have a lot of wood to buck up so we built two just like you've shown here and they're working out great! 👍😁❣️

Your ingenuity is only surpassed by your parenting skills. Your idea and the suggestions be others make a lot of sense. I can attest to the importance of empowering your daughter and giving her great positive feedback. My father-in-law did the same. He also told her she could do anything she wanted. She took him to heart. She's a nurse practitioner and a nurse midwife. She ended up going back to school to get her PhD and is now a tenured professor and director of a nursing school. I'm forever indebted to my father-in-law for his love and encouragement of his daughter.

"This firewood rack looks like a fantastic solution for keeping firewood organized and easily accessible! I love how simple and straightforward the design is, making it perfect for DIY enthusiasts of all skill levels. Plus, the use of basic materials and minimal tools means it's budget-friendly and can be assembled in no time. This would be a great addition to any backyard or outdoor space, especially for those who enjoy cozying up by the fire during the colder months. Thanks for sharing this easy-to-follow tutorial!"

Works great if your fire wood is all the same size! Great idea!

I love it! It was easy and simple yet elegant. Your video length was perfect and your helper precious. Great example dad!

You are a good father letting your daughter learn while helping 😊.

Kudos for the help.Never stop a little one from helping.You are making lifelong memories

We're old! We had wood delivered recently and the man stacked it so terribly, it fell the next, and we had a MESS to pick :(. Your plan is ideal for us! And, it's easy peasy for two old people to build and enjoy! Thank you for taking the time to film and explain clearly. :) ♥♥♥

Great video. Love how your daughter is helping. She is adorable.

Really like the idea thanks for the video. Instead of stapling the tar paper on top, I saw another video where a guy would just put a couple pieces of split wood on top to hold his covering down.

love your little helper.You are truly blessed.

Great idea! I lover your cute little helper. She's got a great work ethic!

So glad you took the time to demonstrate this, was at a loss as to how to store in our small yard. Love this!!

Your a great Dad!! The most important job you have!!

Your lil helper did a great job!

That is a very good idea. Thanks for the video. That is an awesome little helper you have there. Cute little kid. Reminds me of our granddaughter.

Very easy and look very nice...will try to do mine next weekend.Thanks for sharing

Glad this showed up on my feed this morning. We have been using the old kennel area where the previous owners kept their dog (mine was a large couch potato, not outdoorsy unless i was out there with him 😂) so we left up 2 sides of the kennel fencing, put in plastic slats on them (for the neighbors sake), repurposed a bunch of HD beams and laid them on top of the paver made floor and stacked 1/2 a maple tree and covered the top with a tarp. Not as nice looking but its doing its job. When we use it up for the winter we may tweak the system. I like the visual appeal of your setup much better but we have to work with what we have to be functional first. Definitely keeping this design in mind if we change anything up.

LOVE the little helper and her wheel barrow... such a cutie!

Just made this today after doing lots of research on different diy ideas. Absolutely love it. Thank you!!

What is nice about this design is that it is easy to alter if you use more wood or stack higher or have longer pieces...all you have to do is alter the lengths of the wood and add a few more cinder blocks - very practical and simple!

Your little cutie helping is something amazing 💖🧚

Your little helper (daughter?) is adorable. Nice to see her learning and being active. Stay safe.

Excellent! Thanks for sharing. Your little girl is adorable!

I am going to use this idea. Thank you!! I had an ash tree taken down because it was sick and dying. I need a quick and easy place to store firewood until we can use it in our new firepit. ❤ Thanks 😊

Nice job and great little helper 😊 here in Finland we make long stacks too with no piles at the end. For start we stack every layer across so the stack stands itself and same thing to the other end. Now you can stack rest of the firewood in between 😊😊😊

Good job, boy Your daughter is so helpful and nice 😊 Hello from France 🇫🇷

Best wood rack I have ever used. Was planning on building something more permanent but these racks are so flexible, I no longer see the point.

Well done. Clever thought. And so cheap. This is very sufficient. And when the kids are helping, It halves the needed time. Thanks for the upload. Greetings Dirk Belgium.

84.00 and an hour and it was done. Thank You for Idea and the Video. I have a cord and a half on the exact rack you designed..

Seen a couple of these … gonna make one for myself…. Great helper too!!

What a great helper she's doing all the work 👏

The cutest video, your little helper stole the show.😊

Thank you. Its great idea.

100% the correct way.the air under the rack is the most important point.👍👍😄😄🇩🇪

Thank you for this mate...I saw this video a couple of years ago and have been waiting to build it. I like the temporary nature of this design as it should be easy enough to take apart if and when i move house..I made a couple of small modifications by adding some struts to support the felt roofing but this is such a simple and quick build...Many thanks again

Thanks for this tutorial! I just made this and it worked great and looks good at the back of our yard. Thumbs up!

Best construction ever! Thank you!💯

Nice job! i’ve been burning wood since 1990 the dryer the wood the better it burns keep it off the ground good job!

Made it with 12' 2X4s and it works and looks great. Wood is up off the ground..........Thank you for the idea.

OMG!! I miss having a lil helper! So cute. Gonna build this later today

Daughter is wonderful, my son was my little helper.

Sometimes the simplest solution is the best; this looks like a great, simple idea. Esp. like the way the 2x4s sit in the concrete blocks at just the right to stay in place.

So simple! I have been wondering about what solution im going to have to stackup my wood for several weeks now till the next year. Finally seems like have found a solution! Simple, easy and cheap.

I love this design, I have had a similar setup for 3 year at this point. You really only need to lay the 2 2x4s down in the middle, and put the supports on the outside of them. 1 cinderblock per side and 1 in the middle for support has held a 10' run 5' high without any issues. Love the setup!

Love this so much! Especially your helper!

Congrats on having a very mature intelligent helpful little trainee.

I like how simple it is, What I have learned about stacking is adding more uprights in the middle helps make room for new wood to fill what space you emptied. Keeps the new stuff separated from more seasoned wood.

I just bought materials and built this exact structure in one day. I wish I could show you guys! But now I need to be able to hold more wood! Thanks guy!

Straight forward and to the point. Thanks!

Omg this is genius 👏👏👏. Great helping hand you got too 🤗

Cool idea I think I'd use 4 x 4 post on the ends to make sure it was extra strong

A great little helper you have..!

Just built this. Super easy and works great. Thanks for the video 🍻

What a great helper………..👏

My grandson helped me Just like your daughter. They love helping

Loved to watch it. Reminded me when my kids were small and "helping" out when handling the fire wood. 😀. Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪.

Thank you

You have the best helper sir

Excellent!

Great and simple build , on the ends if you want you can fill the holes with fast set quikrete. Also a wonderful helper you have.

Just found this video. It’s the perfect solution for us. Thank you!

I'm using very similar racks. Two seasons now with these racks in my covered wood shed on concrete slab floor. Very stable, conveniently modular, very happy. An issue I had this winter with my new additional racks outside for extra "back stock" wood laid in for a couple years out is tipping. One of the 5 racks even fell over. The issue turned out to be unrelated to the racks themselves. On some of the late winter warmer days, with above freezing temps and some sunshine, the side of the racks that got the most sun had thawing of the soil under the cement blocks. But the backside stayed shaded by the firewood, so the ground on that side stayed frozen. So the blocks sunk into the soil just a little bit on the warm side. That little bit magnified the lean as it went up the 4ft height, creating some sketchy leaning racks. My plan this spring is to knock the remaining racks down, re-level and really tamp the soil down hard. Then I''ll put down three 16" square cement pavers as broad foundations for the cinder blocks. I think the narrow edges of the blocks just didn't have enough surface area, and dug into that melting soil. Will take a year to see if my plan works. LOL

Awesome, I'm going to try this, thanks, much appreciated!

Good job on the wood rack! It always helps to have a good apprentice!

lol the tiny green wheelbarrow. best helper ever.

Thanks!

This is great!!!

looks great and super easy construction! Ma have to use this!

Great job one trick also is to stack the wood bark side up! This sheds the water off faster and does not soak into the wood Cheers 🙂

Cutting your rounds to the right length is key for this setup. Thanks!

Great little helper ❤️

Hi, its a great quick Idea. Thx.

Tarpaper, great idea!

this is great for a temp situation...which most of the time...thats what a wood rack is...temp until empty.

As a housing inspector I wish everyone stacked their firewood this way

Great idea simple works

GREAT LITTLE HELPER

Nice of you to help your kid building this...

Nice, thanks from France

Awesome thank you

Greatest dad

Thank you. I need a wood shed but still not sure where to put one long-term. This is a good option.

Love this Video!! Great parenting and job 🙌🙌🙌 greetings from Austria

Everyone is making the same racks with angled ends. A simple 2" space block will make those ends straight up for a better rack where you can continue another rack next to it and save two pieces of lumber.

So inspiring and so precious

Good idea!

I love it, great idea. Thanks for sharing

B.O.S.T.O to everyone listening and I need a log holder like yours 🕊🇬🇧

beautiful and très pratique salutations FRANCAISE

Gave this video a like for the A+ Dadding🤩 Nice design on the wood rack as well though.

Really like this, much easier and cheaper than a full blown wood shed. There is another style very similar to this I had seen before and actually built 6 of at my last house, instead of a 2x4 base on top of the blocks it used 2 landscape timbers, I like the way you did it alot better cause the base is screwed together and is much less likely to move around as your getting the first 2 layers of wood on it unlike the landscape timbers.

Pretty good idea.

looks great and will work
