I've posted before that I am starting to buy larger amounts of wood at a time. Walnut in my area is becoming hard to get and a large lead time so when I find it, I buy a fair amount. My concern with a homemade rack is that most are attached to the walls of the shop and I worry it's too much weight on the studs in the wall. It was suggested to buy a metal rack but I am trying to avoid a high dollar solution....if I can.
Below is what I have come up with. With it being angled away from the wall I'm hoping to have a fair amount of the weight on the concrete floor. I will attach the uprights to the wall studs and ad supports from the ceiling to push against the top of the uprights. I hope this makes sense and someone with more knowledge can let me know if I'm on the right track. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Not sure if my second picture was attached but it is my current setup (similar, picture pulled from the internet). It's not large enough for the storage I need. I am hoping to store approx 150-200 bf per layer
