Finally finished the custom shelf in my garage. Took way too long but worth it

Aug 4·1 min read

Started this project last spring and just got it painted and mounted yesterday. Heavy duty pine with steel brackets. Thing is an absolute unit and can probably hold 200 lbs easy. My neighbor said it looks professional which felt good. Now I can actually organize all my tools instead of having them scattered everywhere. Next weekend thinking about tackling the workbench area. Gonna feel good to have a real workspace again.

Props for actually finishing it. I started a shelf project in my garage like a year ago and it's still in pieces. What kind of storage are you putting on it?

That's awesome man, sounds like a serious project. There's something really satisfying about building something solid that actually holds up. Nice work getting it done.

Respect for sticking with it from spring to now. Heavy duty pine and steel brackets sounds like that thing is built to last. Bet it looks incredible.

That's awesome man. I love those projects that take forever but finally getting them done feels incredible. Heavy duty pine is no joke too, that thing is going to last forever.

Started last spring and just finishing now is pretty good for a dad side project honestly. Between kids and work and life stuff it's hard to find the time.
