I just scored some wide cherry boards at an auction for just a few dollars. The problem is that this lumber is in my garage, on a couple of tubafoors. My car is out on the street.
I have a bunch of lumber stored in my basement: maple and oak, mostly. I counted, and I'm up to 105 boards. Probably around 500 board feet.
I have some space under the heating ducts in the basement/workshop. It's good to fill the space, so I'm not tempted to walk through it and bang my head on the corner of the ducts. So I'm limited to 65" in height, if I leave 2" of clearance.
Here's my plan: Build three or four columns. Each column has a pair of
2x6s as vertical elements, on either side of six two-by-four shelves (unless I go with three columns, then I use 2x6s for the shelves as well as columns). Here's a drawing: ____ ______________________\ |____|
