garage additions

[randomtask37]

So i just bought a new house. its kind of a blank slate, so today i upgraded the garage and added some shelves. Now I've been thinking of building a work bench, tool organization board, etc.

Im searching for ideas. So does anyone on here have a cool addition they want to share?

This is what i built today:
It was cheap but its very sturdy.
nine 2x4's and one 4ftx8ft sheet cut lengthwise into 16inch wide shelves.

Nice bike, I used to have the same one. Sold it for a road bike, though.

I did similar when I moved into the place I'm at now. 2x8 ft. shelves and a 3x8 ft. bench.


Lots of light too.


Here it is currently with peg board and the drawers I built into the bottom. Also the powder coating oven under the bench and the tire rack above it.

Screw it.

Two nails would be fine for hundreds of pounds per shelf, I believe. That's a lot of kips.
Pretty sure those are screws though.
