Garage Project – Main storage area and the overhead shelving

Main storage area – and the overhead shelving is finished too. Copyright © 2019 Gary Allman, all rights reserved.

This project is starting to come together, though there are still a lot of details to attend to before it will be finished. The track for the sliding doors is in place. I could have bought a 12ft length of track for $33, but the delivery charge was $125! So I opted to buy two six-foot lengths of track ($18 each) and hope that the join doesn’t prove to be too much of a problem.

All this construction has produced a lot of sawdust and a big pile of off-cuts, but with the shelves up I’ve been able to start putting things away again. I’ve also disposed of a lot of stuff, visiting two recycling plants and dropping some re-usable items off at Habitat for Humanity for them to sell on.

With all the main construction finished I’ve also started cleaning up as the next job is to make the doors for the storage area. I have to make them as they need to be 39 inches wide and just one and three-eighth inches deep.
