This week I'm taking care of the storage problem in my garage. I need to make more room for my office, and decided to build an enclosed / dust free space to store the odds and ends that get in the way.

Pro tip on the hanging storage:. Keep an eye out for suit bags and drycleaning bags on the free stuff listings. The shoulders of anything hanging for more than three months or so will get surprisingly filthy, even in a closet with a door.

I usually put black trash bags over camping gear that hangs or things like life vests. Just cut a hole for the hanger top to go through. Seems like this stuff does get dirty even in a closed room.

@WoodUCreate 2 жыл бұрын
It probably would have meant a lot more work too. I thought the knob height was strange. Instead of cutting off the bottom of the door, he'd have to remove the top of the frame, cut that down the amount needed and then the door too. Because the pre-mortised latch and door knob already there, you can't really move the door knob up or you'd have the ugly old hole and need the new one. An inch or two is probably ok, but 6", just too low.

Your tip on structural screws is greatly appreciated. I love the design of the storage room; including a closet was an excellent idea. Adding a line of hooks in the wall of the closet (half way high) will provide a way to hang bags, bets, etc. without taking much space. Great use of the space! I’m not sure about the lights … they just look provisional.

Juan 3:16 RVR1960 La paga del pecado es muerte (infierno) pero Cristo pagó nuestra deuda en la cruz para nuestra salvacion! Debemos volvernos a Dios y apartarnos de nuestros caminos pecaminosos, confesar que Jesús es el Señor y creer con nuestro corazón que fue resucitado de entre los muertos por Dios, y debemos de ser bautizados en el nombre del Padre, del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo y vivir por Su palabra y mandamientos! Confia que Dios ayudara con el resto! Busca a Dios, antes de que sea muy tarde! Hoy podria ser tu ultimo dia en la tierra! Que tengas un hermoso dia! ❤️❤️❤️

Few quick things for anyone attempting something similar. 1: there are double 2X6, 2X8, etc joist hangers, so you don’t need to get one for a 4X4 and shim it. 2: most joists are not milled very accurately, so while it is convenient to just nail all the hangers on and then drop the joists in, you will very likely wind up with the top surface of the joists not being coplanar due to the inconsistencies in width. 3: it is a good idea to use pressure treated wood or a gasket for anything that is in contact with concrete, as concrete tends to be a source of moisture for wood.

I also live in the greater Seattle area and suffer from all the tree pollen. I can't cut lumber without a face mask, even outdoors. I love your shelf design. I might steal it. I've been considering building a similar storage room at the back of my 2 car garage to separate my woodworking shop from all our other tools. Then I can add storage to the other side of the wall for woodworking tools. I wish I had that much ceiling height in my garage. Also, wetting drywall tape can cause it to bubble later down the road. Mix water in the mud instead.

I have the same one and having major issues with it pulling away from the fence and having trouble finding help on it.

As someone who got into this 3 years ago and late in life, I'd recommend a good tape measure and graphing paper to plan out your designs. Like Adisson commented- math and practice will get you there. The tricky thing about lumber is a 2x4 isn't 2 inches by 4 inches. It's 1.5"x3.5". A 2x6 is 1.5"x5.5", but a 2x8 is 1.5"x7.25". Do a search for dimensional lumber size charts and that will help with designing and making the proper cuts. And as they say- measure twice, cut once.

Wow great idea. I just moved into a new space and have clutter on the back wall of the garage. I'll be taking a page out of your book for that.

@Michael, I have found that using my impact driver to drive the tap-con screws into concrete has been more reliable. I agree they can be tempermental with just a screw-driver

Nice storage space, Michael. I feel your pain on the cost of plywood. I have a few sheets of 5x5x1/2 baltic birch that I paid $35 for a couple of years ago and now they are $100. Bill
