Setting up Shop in Dayton (aka Cholla's Retreat)

[mockingbird812]

Slow going, but progress is progress. I attached my shelves low on the wall for practical reasons to maximize stacking of containers as storage is at a premium. Visually, I don't particularly care for this as it closes the garage in a bit (and minimizes wall space for all the cool memorabilia I have collected/inherited over the years). I had an outfit custom make (reasonable) the HD wire mesh as I liked the strength, minimizes shadows, and the industrial look. I thought they would be more rigid but this type of mesh is suited to industrial shelving with metal frames. In my setup they flex too much so I had to use an anchoring system (1/8" x 1" flat stock) to hold the mesh firmly to the braces. Seems to work. Braces are rated to 500lbs (H. Depot) and should now allow me to put a fairly heavy load up there if needed. Shelving will wrap around 2.5 walls.
