    Storage Racks Recommendations

    I made my own shelving from unistrut and threaded rod. I was able to make two 20" tall shelves which should accommodate any type of bin. The only thing I wish was that I used wire decking instead of plywood, but had trouble finding a reasonable supplier from a cost standpoint.

    Peg board instead of rolling tool cabinet?

    I think you might have forgotten to put one of your wrenches back :bounce:

    Pipe clamps for wood working

    This. Ratchet + Cauls. You will rarely need 60"+ clamps and storing them is rather inconvenient. I am guessing you are trying to join the headboard panels? If you are making a farmhouse style bed, I'd dado a groove between the rails and slide in the panels.

    How do you store your corded power tools?

    I did have this, but I am going to build an assembly/outfeed table with divided drawers to house each tool and it's accessory.

    What Do You Use Your Garage For?

    I think if you'd outfit them with a epoxy/racedeck flooring, newage cabinets, some slatwalls, and overhead storage - totally generic, you'd find a lot more interest and probably make more money. Go for the "looks" over function.

    Bed Liner on Cabinet Doors

    I am wondering if anyone has tried spraying a 24 gauge cabinet with bed liner. I have some free cabinets that I received, the paint needs to get cleaned up a bit, and they are lower gauge cabinets, but I wonder if I refinish in bed liner, will it add additional strength, or will the weight of...

    Help Me Choose a Tool Chest

    Yep. I checked that one out at Lowes, not a fan. Cheaper, but I think it is shallower and the quality is lack. Even though it is US assembled, still same Chinese components, which doesn't have me clamoring to "buy american." The Husky seems better built and has better ergonomics from pretty much...

    Help Me Choose a Tool Chest

    I have considered building a system out of a mix of Systainers, Milwaukee Packouts, Toughboxes, and building a slide system in my out feed and miter station, but frankly, I am lazy and often in a rush at the end of a project. I'd rather tote around a cart, throw the tool in it when I am done...
