A couple weeks ago I came across a good deal on some 2x3 construction lumber. So ironically I built a lumber cart/rack to hold it all, along with whatever else i had stacked.

Similar to Jay Bates version, but I attached verticle supporst every other stud, 32" spacing…. no regrets. On right side I doubled up 2×4 verticlts so I could easily store 8ft material - ply or 2×4's wouldn't fit if I didn' t double up one side. Lesson learned" the pipe is.84", and I drilled...

made entirely from cull pack lumber! this rack has been assembled to safely store my lumber, both dimensional and sheet goods! and more! Updated Pictures & Details Below i borrowed a few ideas from other lumber rack designs, mine came together quickly using a double arm design and triple...

So I had a very specific problem. I made some simple angled wall brackets (following Jay's design, see http://jayscustomcreations.com/2013/12/5-lumber-rack/) for storing some lumber, but when it came time to install the top row, I couldn't find any studs. Turns out the top 3 feet or so of...

Not flashy, but represents way more hours than I thought would go into this (death by 1000 cuts)... Not sure where the idea originated, but I thought it was from the Wood Whisperer. I put a few minor modifications on it like sizes, the plywood tops, and maybe a little overkill on fastening...

After remodeling my shop last year, I was in need of some lumber storage in a bad way. After looking around a little, I ran across a Fine Woodworking article in which Chris Gochnour had built a lumber rack and miter bench in one. I liked the design, so I sat down with Sketchup and came up with...

This lumber rack desperately needed to be painted. Because 90% of the wood on this project is on it's third go-around. (used to be a shelving unit for hardware and before that it was a work/miter saw bench). And I had to get rid of some old spray cans of paint. So of course I didn't have...

How to Build a Wall-Mount Lumber Rack (on YouTube) My workshop will always need to be a garage first and woodworking shop second. To help with my lumber storage, I decided to build my own lumber rack. I scoured Pinterest for ideas, but I couldn't quite find a design that mounted to a wall while...

Just a couple quick workshop projects I knocked off today. The first is a oak blade guard for my jointer. I just traced the old one, put a 1/4 pine spacer at the swivel end, and used the dowel from a foam brush for the pivot, The dowel is notched in the end to accept the spring to tension it...

It's almost 10 ft. In length, 18" shelf extensions with 24" base. Took 25 2×6's and 2 2×10's and 1 sheet of plywood. Passlode framing nailer was my best friend. This is not anchored to the wall as I didn't want holes in my walls. I've been wanting to do this for a few weeks and only took...

This isn't my first project, but it is my first to post. This is my sheet goods storage. It is 2.5' wide and 9' tall with roughly two 11" sections (2 right compartments, top and bottom), far right being for full sheet goods on end; middle section top for half sheets and middle section bottom...

I built this a couple of months ago. Everything above the bottom level was just lying on the floor and I have been tripping over for quite some time, so I decided it was time to do something about it. The cherry on the bottom level I got last week through kijiji. I don't remember where I first...

This is a variation of the Wood Whisperer's plans. My rack has one less row of supports, 16 total, and no sheet goods storage space. I hung my 200 pound body off of each and bounced up and down, then had my 280 pound older brother do the same… I think the wall studs would snap before the rack...

7 - 8' 2×4's and, voila…....I've been wanting to make this smaller version lumber rack for inside my shop so it could be a little better acclimated before I saw butcherin it all up. After squaring them all up a bit, and doin a little machining, it's gonna be a very nice little (not really too...

Sorry about the sideways photo. Can't figure out how to fix this. I made this sheet goods cart after a post by another lumber jock. I wanted to store my 4×8 sheets "standing up" to save space. I modified the cart sides to 60" (from 48") and widened the base to 37" so cart would not tip. I...

I actually finished this back in late August but I just released 3 video podcasts on my site detailing the entire build. If you are interested please check out episode 77, episode 78, and episode 79. This was the first project that I actually cut all the dovetails by hand and a special thanks...

I had wood laying everywhere in my shop. It finally got to the point of being just downright ridiculous so I decided to dedicate a couple of days to cleaning up and organizing my storage. I have seen many versions of the WWMM cart over the past few years. So I downloaded the free plans and...

I finally built the lumber rack I have been planning for a long time. It is pretty much based on the popular Wood Whisperer design, with adjusted dimensions to fit my needs. It is made from construction lumber and scrap 3/4" plywood (one support uses 1/2" baltic birch plywood instead). I...

I decide to built a lumber rack made of metal, because that walls of my workshop are made of block and the surface are irregular

I originally built my poor man's panel saw (proto) on a mobile base so I could wheel it around the shop to use it. Ever since I added PVC tile to my garage floor, moving that beast around the shop was no longer possible due to the 3" casters. I still needed the panel saw to cut down full...
