I built this shelf in my garage step by step using your instructions. Turned out amazing!! My garage is so clear now and the shelf looks cool. Great video

Your idea to use the angle brackets and the slotted flat bars is by far the best and the easiest method I've seen.

I like how you're using affordable tools that everyone can have access to!

This is very well done. Same angle iron and bars that I use to hang HVAC equipment. The size of the cuts really minimizes wood waste. Super thoughtful build, with excellent points made throughout ("this is essentially a wall being built horizontally, with 16" on-center framing").

If I didn't already buy safe racks, I'd totally do this.

Awesome work on those shelves and even better on the humility and loving your wife. May God Almighty bless you and your family. In Jesus name.

Oh man, my garage currently looks like yours did. I literally have to take things out, do work on a car or woodworking ect then move the crap back in... brutal. Great vid man. Exactly what I was looking for!

You’re one of VERY few that actually made the video enjoyable by relating that not all of us have those real expensive tools and bells and whistles. But you made the project with a realistic budget and easy steps on HOW TO

[hughmccabe]

This was very good. Especially the freeze frames with the part names/sizes (nuts, bolts etc.). Very helpful!

I used chains to lag hooks in rafters for support to the ceiling. Much easier. Still holding things up 25years later. Great video.

Really good video as always Bart. Great look and thrifty too. I used the old boring Rubbermaid bins on mine because a painters pole fits snug enough in the handle i don’t have to use a ladder to shuffle them or get them down. The bins you have are bigger....and less expensive. Such good content, keep it up !

[BruceAUlrich]

I can’t believe how much that holds! Great job transforming the space, Bart!

I just finish building this and it’s amazing!!!! Thank you. Now all my friends neighbors want!!

I built the same type of storage shelf at my last place..and like yours, most of the weight is held up by the ceiling brace 2x4. The problem is, depending on how much weight you add to it, it will start to stress that wall a LOT!! Come winter, I started hearing pops, and creaks, etc..it drove me crazy..that house never made those sounds before. As this was ALL I added to the place that summer..I put a basement jack stand under it about half way across..screwed it up until it was level once again..never heard another squeak or pop for the next 20 years!! Still hanging there as far as I know. Just in the lumber alone there is more weight there than one thinks. Just a suggestion, but I would put a brace jack under it bro. Great job!!
Good luck!! 😁👌👍✌

This is my favorite/easiest one of these garage shelf videos I’ve seen

[michaelhood]

Loved the video! Been looking through dozens of YT garage organization videos and this one is by far the best overall based on: Ease of build, price, finished product, storage space and build quality. Thanks! 🇺🇸💪🏼

[douglee]

Very clutch with the dimensions on the angle, bar, and all the hardware. Thank you!

[dabearsnationtorres]

Thank you for making this video. I told my wife for Christmas i want money to create space for my bins. AWESOME job!!
