[Shop-talk] Organizing garage/shop

[pethier at comcast.net]

I ran a high shelf all the way around the shop just over the doors. Much of the stuff up there is in labeled boxes or tubs. If I need to get something down I just reach up and grab it. If a closer look is needed I reach up and pull down a milk case to stand on.  Milk cases are also used to sit on to do wheel and brake work.  Every effort is made to keep stuff off the floor. The shop is only 20 feet wide outside measure and it has two cars in it so every item on the floor adds to claustrophobia.
