What better way to wake up on a Sunday morning with a coffee and the latest Proper DIY Video. Favourite channel by far. Keep it up Stuart.

Using the back frame and clamping the front frame to it to use as a template is such a simple idea but I never would have thought of doing it that way. Genius

I'm 73 and reasonably handy but i wish I had this knowledga and these tools 60yrs ago. Keep em coming.

Lol. Love the fact I'm not the only sad one sat here watching this first thing on a Sunday morning. 2k views in just 45 minutes ain't bad. Twenty years ago I'd be waking up on a Sunday a few hours later with a ridiculous hangover and maybe a random bird from the pub. Now it's a fresh head a cup of coffee and keen intrest in building some new shelving to better organise my garage

Making the front of the unit by using the back is genius!!

Very impressed with your pocket hole jig ;-)

A nice wee John Deere tractor. I used to love these things - but now I'm an EX-tractor fan!

Those bunk beds are perfect for family at Christmas 😂

Very timely, I was just telling my wife I wanted to do this in one of my garages and now I know how. Thank you.

Your attention to detail, and application of intelligence is joyful to watch. I have learned a lot from you. Thank you!

Love the way you present Stuart, totally inspirational and humorous, keep it up😀

Love your videos, even when they about things I won’t ever build with tools I don’t have, I just love your planning and presentation. Great videos and very enjoyable to watch. Thank you 👍

I have got several of this design of shelves in my garage and they are so useful. Only one slight issue I found when building them (exactly as you did) is the floor needs to be level or else you have a bit of fettling to do to get them level front to back with the cross members. I loved building mine and now have no space left to build any more I am 'all shelfed up' !!

Has it really been two-years already? Wow, I remember watching both videos and it was your lighting video that encouraged me to install my own lighting in the loft. Best decision I ever did because being up there now is soo much easier. I actually did exactly what you did by terminating it to a UK plug for use with a socket.

Great idea with the dpm socks

At last! I knew 3”x2” would be enough. Thanks for showing and confirming that. I can crack on with my own now. 👌👍

Parkside tracksaw still going strong!

Great minds follow the same path. I built a 16 ft long version of this shelving back in the early 80's in my basement. I had just done some demo upstairs so I had access to some 70 year old door casing material (stronger wood than you can buy today). i stood these 7' 6" 4" wide boadrs up against the wall and toe nailed the tops into the ceiling joists above. For the runners I cut some 2x2:s and ran them across that basement wall. I then mirrored that frame in place against the wall so everything would match up, I used 2x4's for the uprights because i had them on hand. I used 3/8" chip board and made them just sort of 16" wide (2 per 4x8 sheet) and nailed them in place. My self height was a foot and like you the borrom eas the nasement floor. That was 42 years ago and they have served me well

Fantastic to see almost exactly the design that I used for my garage being given the properdiy seal of approval. I even remember having to reverse my top sheet in the same way.

I always put a shallow amount of postcrete down before watering in and loading the bigger amount.

Outbuilding. An outhouse is something completely different... Nice upgrade to the outbuilding. "Check your screw length first. Don't ask me how I know." Not said, just implied. Take care & stay safe.

2x3's are excellant for lots of projects where 2x4's are being used. Save a tree, use 2x3's!

Love the videos each time you post what we need

Nice job Stuart, looks solid, as you say

Great video and simple to follow video. Nicely done😊

Love it, cheers Stuart ❤

Absolutely brilliant! Thank you.

Been a fan of your Proper Dogging channel for years but I’m ashamed to say I’ve only just come across this channel. Enjoying the vid!

Lovely video! I've seen these before but the comments about the lower spec material being acceptable is useful info. Learning with each video. 🐼 ❤.

Great video Stuart, now looking to do the same, thanks for the inspiration. 😊

Great job,very practical 👍🏾🇦🇺

Brilliant video

Great topic Stuart, very timely and helpful as my shed is crying out for some shelving - scaled down from the dimensions for your barn, of course. Thank you!

Another perfectly timed video ahead of my new shed purchase and fit out 👍

Yes ,for a beginner 3 x2 is good.which is CLS in the UK. I feel a better option is 2 x2 to begin with. 2x4 although the favourite of Americans is very heavy to work with.

Wow..simple but genius! Thank you very much for sharing 😀

So many tips I picked up, great video.

Great job Stuart

Lovely job

Thanks, it is really excellent work.

I love a good shelf for all the items I may need one day

Great inspiration

ive done pretty much the same thing in my garage with 3x2's and its got all sorts of heavy stuff off and is plenty strong enough. where do i get one of those fancy 'wireless' light switches stuart? lol

So many useful tips in one video

Great job Stuart. I did pretty much exactly the same thing in my shed in the last couple of weeks. Agree on the 3*2 rather than 4*2 as well. Thanks.

Great work 👍 just what I need, for the exact reasons, but don’t get rid of stuff….. you know you’ll need it at some point 😘

Brilliant! Looks perfect for the gear you wanted to shelve 👌🏼

A genius yet simple way to build Stuart. Thanks for this.

Nice job!👍😃

Marvelous

Thoroughly enjoyed this video as always with your channel, thank you Stuart 👍

Useful for those of us with concrete garages too 🙏

good shelf idea and practical. loved it.

Brilliant Stuart. Like others I am thinking of building shelving in my garage . Like you I cant move for clutter. Very timely video thanks.

Did these in my shed but only 8ft wide 1ft deep shelving using 2 x 1 and 1/4 ply. Cheap as chips.

I have built similar shelves. I have found that since I am generally not storing 300 pound weights on them, I can get rid of the center support in the middle of the front.side. It simply allows for easier access/movement of storage boxes on and off the shelves. I have not had a shelf sag or break yet. Just a thought.

Surely the first thing to do is to make the structure a bit more watertight? Various holes in the zinc sheers could be easily plugged.

Picked up some good tips. 👍

Great video. I'll be using that method to build my shelves.

Great video Stuart especially for anyone new to DIY. I've learnt so much from your videos thanks for sharing.

Thanks for this, I was trying to work what I was going to do for shelving in my garage workshop.

Nice job and like the shelves!

Inspiration from how Ana White built shelves in her many-million-views vid a few years ago 😉

great video, i would love to see another video of clearing the paddock from brambles etc

Great video, always good entertainment. I recently bought the Rutland plunge saw and the Evolution long guide rails. They work brilliant and were an Amazon bargain

Great video as always Stuart. Built something similar to this recently. Painting the uprights etc is a great way to get rid of old paint cans with little amounts left in them. That’s what I found anyway!

I love watching your channel!!!

I ended up buying the Ikea shelves, that are less than 1x3. And they seem to be plenty strong. So I would definitely consider building with 1x3 material or 1x4, and not 2x4 for the typical home shelving.

Lovely house and garden…

Nice. Done something very similar a few years back in my garage. Just used sheets of flooring chipboard instead. . Also makes a great 3 level bunk bed if the need ever arises. 😅

Looks nice that mate!

Another very helpfull video for just about everybody with a shed/garage or storage room. As a former Carpenter myself, you have skilfully simplified this project for people with basic DIY skills.

Another useful video Stuart.👍👍

Great video, as ever. BTW, tried your sodium hypochlorite approach to patio cleaning yesterday. Great result, thanks for the advice.

I did similiar in my garden store and the lowest shelf bearer was about 10mm above the height of the ride on bonnet so that I can "park" most of it under the shelving and out the way

thumbs up for the jerry cans

Great video and excellent job! 👍 Now You need to make some wooden platform to lift up from ground jerrycans.. 😉

I need to do the same in my shed.

Bloody love those new wireless light switches 😂

This is a great idea i may adopt in the next 2 days lol i have spent the last 3 days building my Shed (Workshop/Man Cave i told the wife its just a shed lol) 3.7 X 2.2 Meter (I say 2 days because i still have all the outer feather edge and metal sheets to hang and a door and window to install) any ways i some how out of all the materials i ordered ended up with 3 sheets of 11m osb too much and was unsure WTH i was going to do with it i may actually make a some small cupboards and shelving system.

I like the waterproof boots you put on the uprights, one question, why didn't you do the same for the ones on the concrete?

Great job as per usual 👏 👍 👌

Love your videos and thanks, can you tell me what the abbreviations are when you are taking about the planks and sheeting?

When I built some shelves for my storage I decided to construct each shelf with a frame under it, and then rather than place full uprights I used individual ‘risers’ - 4 for each level. I just felt like this would give more strength per shelf as it meant the weight wasn’t going through the fixings but just down onto the four posts in the corners. Maybe I was overthinking it?

Great video !!!! thank you

Great idea to do the front and back frame together , I suppose if you’re an engineer that’s the way you mind works 😊 . Had to put some shelves up in a new concrete garage . Couldn’t drill the walls so used OB1 adhesive to fix batons to the walls , worked a treat . Great channel with some really good tips and tricks . 👍

Great. I need ideas on what throw away.

Great video once again! So many tips. Can you please do a garden decking, pergola video?

Bang tidy Stuart! 😀

Love Sundays. Coffee, bacon butty and Proper DIY. Great project that. Any chance you can make these videos about two hours long Stu ? 🍺🍺

I think the reason, us Americans use 2x4s are because they are more readily available and usually the cheapest option because that what is the most common, but I agree a 2x3 would be fine for what you're building it for

Give or take 0.3mm. Nice.

How much did this cost in materials

Great stuff. I am sure there is a law somewhere that states the more shelves you have the more stuff you have to put on them.

Would love a video on servicing the John Deere

Thanks for another great video. As a novice I never know which screws to use and if I should drill holes for them first?

With the tracks, you could join 3 of them with the two rails you have, and then when you're close to the end of the middle track, remove the rear track and add to the front without it affecting accuracy. Admittedly seems pointless in this scenario for something that doesn't require heavy precision, but the option is there

Great advice as always. I have to admit I fell for the 2x4 ploy. Silly me!

Agree with others. Evolution rail 2800... £71 on Amazon, £84 in Screwfix. 2 1400 rails, bag, 2 clamps. Work great.

Good vid. Store the “Drinks” bowl upside down so that insects don’t get trapped in there and die a slow agonising death. 👍🏻
