Thank you for taking the time to record....love the price comparison.

I'll be forever using that stacking method now!

I've been watching many similar videos, and some videos have many millions views. I find out that this video is the best.

Thanks for the awesome compliment!

Nice build. Nothing better then a bunch of extra storage space. Especially when you can build it on a budget. Thx!

Hey, thanks!

The temp brace for lifting is genius especially for those of us who work alone. One fail in your video. In the beginning you state the 2x4s are cut down to 6ft for the shelves, yet at the end when you discover the metal shelving unit you state your shelves are longer than the 6ft metal unit. That's actually the same unless you misspoke early on and used the entire 2x4 for the length of your shelves.

Mine is just a bit taller than the metal one. Every inch matters, right?

I built something similar, but without the middle supports but used 5/8" particle board. Have had totes on it for several years and hasn't sagged

I tend to over-engineer everything expecting a heavier load than I probably need.

Awesome!

Strong work! I'm guessing your floor is level?

Nice build! Going to make this. Did you use MDF or OSB for the shelves?

I used MDF. I find it more easier to work with and it looks better.

The screws I use are whatever I have around the shop for projects like this but these are 2 1/2" construction screws that I got at Home Depot. They have a torx head but also come with the drill bit to make it easy.

I like the general construction screws with the star pattern driver.

How wide was the shelf and how long was the 2x4s for the shelfs. Is all the 2x4s. 6 feet long

I cut the plywood in half so the cross pieces are a bit over 2 feet long. The uprights are all 6 feet.

Yea, building the wood shelf is a lot cheaper.
