I find shop organization videos so satisfying perhaps because I live vicariously though the makers doing them that have the time, space, tools, and opportunity to organize. That and it gives me hope I can one day organize my way out of the perennial scenario where my wife says I have too much stuff in my shed….a boy can dream!

Laughed out loud watching you try to get the filing cabinet up on the dolly. I’ve done that so many times before. LOL. I’m in a different stage of organizing things right now. So this gave me different ideas. No Black Friday shopping for me today. Instead… I’m home sick… and binge watching KZbin. So you’ll see me in your comments a lot today. LOL

Rather than screwing your loose french cleat to the wall, put a spacer between the it and the fixed cleat above it. That will be tons to stop it jumping out, but also means the wall can be instantly reconfigured (Acknowledging that this isn't a wall you'd regularly reconfigure)

A thought on the french cleat retension device, instead of screwing a board across the space, screw in ovals that can be turned 60 degrees to provide the clamping, then released just as easily (2 per shelf, one turned clockwise, one counterclockwise.) design up a template, and have the CNC route out a bunch, including the screw hole in the middle. The advantage being that you can limit how much needs to be removed when you decide that the shelf of 12 quart Serlites needs to be 2 shelves of 6 quart Serlites. (or vice versa....

In lean manufacturing, labeling things is a huge deal. Yes, P-Touch machines are totally sexy. You can't find things if they're not appropriately labeled. It's an off-shoot of the idea that there's a place for everything, and at the end of a task, everything goes back into its place. You waste no time looking for things that way, and time is the one resource you can't make more of.

@@WesleyTreat yeah I buy that, for your situation in your location. But put a little more weight, say some wine bottles, and add some shaking (West coast earthquake or if you live next to a truck route) to open the joints up slightly thereby negating the friction, and the saving of a few extra 2x4s isn't a savings anymore. I'm just advising people to evaluate their situation and consider beefing up their shelves for very little extra cost.
