Clamp Organization

old clamp rack.jpgnew clamp racks.JPGMaybe this will someone else. I had been using some racks for clamps I got from Woodpeckers. I realized by making this simple and free racks out of 2X4 scraps, drywallscrews, and OSB I could get a lot more storage and use an unused corner or the shop. My walls are 1/2" OSB so mounting things is easy.

I built one of the a frame type with casters, thing takes up space, but I can roll it to where I'm assembling something. Planning to get my wood storage out of my work area and build an assembly table, so it will be handy then.

I always say, storage is where you find it. Good use of space.

Looks good. Thanks for posting it Dan.

Glenn, you are right. To me wall storage is valuable real estate. I do not understand why people advise drywall for shop walls. OSB is easy to put up and paint and so useful. I guess to each his own. Dan

I do not understand why people advise drywall for shop walls.

Maybe because most shops are actually attached garages and must pass a fire code to be legal? I would have prefered T1-11, but my inspector put the kibosh on that idea.
