"outdoor" wood storage
I'm in the process of renovating my garage. It's not a woodworking shop, though I do some minor work in there and plan to do more. That said, I don't have storage for all the "scraps" (where "scraps" in this case can include large sheets of plywood/etc) in the new setup. I was considering the idea of building a really narrow shed against my fence outside to store it in, but am not sure how all this will handle the elements. Any insights here? Should I fully seal it off? Should I just aim to keep the rain out, but otherwise not worry about fully sealing the walls? Should I lay concrete for the floor, and elevate everything off the concrete?
For some added context, I'm in Los Angeles; we don't get much extreme weather here.
I'd rather not waste all this wood, but also can't keep it where it is, and woudl rather not pay for storage. Would love any input folks may have.
Thanks!
