    Okay... I finally got " Der FrankenShelfer" positioned on the pegboard wall and after playing "Garage Tetras" for a few hours... I managed to get a ton of stuff sorted, stacked and re-organized. It looks like this unit design can handle a great deal of weight without being anchored to either the deck or the wall studs and only occupies a space that is 7' High X 7' Wide X 20" Deep and is very stable with no risk of tipping over. I managed to get every last stick of wood planks and board sorted and stacked on the space above the top of the shelf and made even more space. I took some follow up shots for comparison and to confirm that with one quarter of the unavailable floor deck space now available, I'll continue building more shelving and making more space until the joint looks as empty as a Bowling Alley Parking Lot on Christmas Eve.

    Urinals use 3.8l per flush, doesn't that count for something? Coincidence? I think not...

    That is just down the road too. Craigslist has some stuff from time to time as well. I might just get cabinets and put a door across the top for a desk.

    I just Googled this place up...when you get the lay of the land and overcome your old tendency for snow-blindness now that you are down here (lol) places like this can often have some decent stuff for just a little bit of "The Elusive Spondulex":

    Of course... and that is even better way of putting it... I was just afraid of everybody missing the famous ice cream connection if I used the latter. The very best of luck to you both, of course... and speaking of shelves... I just finished the big wall unit tonight and had to resort to using the wood from two clean pallets my neighbor dropped off last week. I shot some additional images to make the point that if you can strip these down with a block of wood, a claw hammer and two saw horses and after gently knocking the board loose from the crossing two-by-fours, you will wind up with enough wood (25.5 Board Feet, in fact) to work on similar projects like this. Additionally, I must have gotten 2 lbs of usable nails as well. The wood that came from this effort finished the last three shelves. Next up... move the junk away from the peg board wall and start loading the nearly 100+ cubic feet of space those shelves now provide in a 7' long 20" wide space... including the very top of the unit to store long sections of wood and pipe,etc.. When I fill this one to the brim...I'll start on another unit. I am admonished by Ben to "Organize...FTW" and will do so ASAP!

    Fixed it for ya lol. Also we are working on inline sixes as well.

    We got a bunch of shelves already, some we got free from our friends work moving into a new building. Also have a bunch in my garage that will be getting transferred.
