Started out with big stackable tubs but switched to adjustable shelves and smaller tubs for the front storage area. Really easy to get specific things out now. Water hoses and other items fit up top and stay out of the way... Wire shelving bought at local hardware store (note shelves installed upside down so the front has an edge to keep things from sliding forward).

Also, installed a modified version of underbelly storage to keep my sewer hoses and blocks handy.

What type of fastners/screws did you use to secure the brackets on the back wall? Where did you get the shelving and brackets?

Got luck and there were studs behind the craftsman rack, and hung the table with the least amount of holes!

Nice use of those beam clamps. I need to remember that solution!!

I'm really interested in the clamps that hold the fence post to the frame. Any info would be appreciated. A post mentioned there is a thread giving details on building the fence post sewer hose storage. I haven't been able to find it so if someone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate.

Edit: Please disregard. I found the original post with instructions.

Someone was just posting about 'fence post' sewer storage. Well I just took some pics of what I did.

No frame drilling needed. Hard to see, but those are 'beam clamps' usually found in electrical or plumbing departments. They have a pointed set screw that digs into the metal so they really stay. The rest is also normal galvanized hardware store stuff.



As you see using 2 tubes lets me cut a bit away to make a wide spot. I mounted the latches and hinges (both ends) with pop rivets. A bit of black paint makes the whole thing nearly invisible.

Added Rubbermaid drop down storage bins for small tools and gloves. Put one on each side of the passthru. They work great.
