[Shop-talk] SLATWALL

[Rush]

I have slatwall on one half of my garage and am planning on installing 
it on the other half. It's a super flexible storage solution with a near 
infinite variety of hangers for any type of item. Mine has metal inserts 
in the grooves to make it a little tougher to tear out a hanger, should 
it receive a shock.

Essentially the drywall got in the way of my installation. Would been 
easier to install directly on the studs. Assuming your fire codes permit it.

The only downside so far is the cheap hangers sometimes pop out of the 
wall when you are unloading them. A minor inconvenience.
