How to make Workshop/Garage Storage Racking

My Premier Project Plans: paskmakes.com/...
My Free Plans: paskmakes.com/...
I reckon this a great way to make workshop/garage storage racking. Especially if you need racking to fit into a certain area like I did here.
I wanted to make use of every bit of the back wall of the shed and buying racking wouldn't have fitted into, and used that space as effectively.
In the past when I've used Square tubing, I've had comments about it being expensive but if you buy it from a metal merchant it's actually pretty good value. To buy comparable racking it would cost at least twice as much. Of course you can build it out of wood but then the wood is too thick and you lose heaps of space.
As always I'm happy to answer any questions.

Please feel free to "spam" my youtube feed as often as you want. Love your videos and learn something new every time.

[@HKKyoya]

Pask is just one of those guys who puts joy into everything he does.

[@AuthenticParrot]

outro montage with dancing boxes just blow my mind !!!!

[@GaryT1952]

This content is not a distraction to the channel! As always, it's informative, interesting and entertaining. Thanks Pask

[@PaskMakes]

I don't think this is, but I was talking about more behind the scenes content with not that interesting (to everyone) content. :)

[@negotiableaffections]

My late Dad always emphasised that time taken in jig building and preparation was time well spent and shows in the final result. That welder's magnet on the door-frame actually made me lol. Beautiful example of how to make a long tedious job pay off. Well done Neil, next time you're in UK, I need a shed and a garage fitting out the same way, cheers!

[@adg1017]

Love it! When telling my wife about your channel, I commented that what I enjoy most is the sheer variety. So by definition this fits right in!

[@christopheleblanc9175]

don't worry about the content, just keep making them ,,, it the oddity of your work that's makes them a must watch ,, ,,, like your '' PASK JOINT's '' , tool making, decorative lamps ect,,, and most from scrap woods, just shows any thing is possible if you set YOUR mind too it !

[@SirDuckyOfAlfheimr]

Those are the most gorgeous home-made racks I've ever laid eyes on! Also, love your video editing. P.S. I see pupper, I like.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much! :)

[@RobertEchten]

I was thinking of doing some racks like that (probably not that high and wide, but similar in style), so YES it was useful to me. I'm now making a desk for my wife's office, so the little jig tip was perfectly time. Great job as always! Thanks for sharing

[@PaskMakes]

Glad not was helpful Robert! :)

[@TheBowersj]

very nice touch with the ladder, I believe this is the nicest storage rack i've ever seen.

[@Troutj15]

Already subscribed but definitely liked it because of the grunts/clapping/game show winner sound effects. You put a lot of time into this one and I respect that.

[@genericuserid7283391]

That high angle shot for the time lapse perfect. Very jealous of all that space

[@deliaguzman1138]

The bit at the end was so worth it; I love everything you do!

[@noahman27]

Neil, your videos are awesome! Nevermind the fantastic content you make. The video production itself is top top top notch. I love it all.

[@toms4123]

I sure did enjoy it and think your productions are getting better and better

[@garyclark7301]

Great video. I just stumbled across channel today. Lots of nifty ideas from a Queenslander with a UK accent. :-) Looking forward to watching all your videos.

[@blafafoire]

I don't know what I envy the most : your skills or the fact that you can work with shorts and t-shirts in an open garage every day of the year...

[@TheOneWhoMightBe]

A queensland summer in a tin shed is pretty brutal, though.

[@jr_helper570]

Oh! That's different, but it's not worse than your other videos. I like your way of implementing your projects and enjoy watching them. I can always learn something about it. I have to build such a similar ladder, rather a staircase, in the outdoor area and have already taken a few tips. Thank you very much.

[@sunjaybedi4389]

Thanks for the video, gives me food for thought… nice Jack Russel/parsons Jack terrier, got to love their spunk.

[@TheIdeasGuy]

I don’t think you’ve ever made a video that wasn’t 110% enjoyable to watch. Somehow you make everything interesting! The stop motion at the end was superb, I know that took some thinking and probably quite some time to film and edit. Well done mate! 😁👍🏻

[@stevepratley]

Nice work mate. A hint for the future, dip each end of the gal tube in HCL and paint onto the straight's to remove the zinc coating, then just paint with cold gal when your done, and Robert's your father's brother! No more toxic fumes! P.S. Serious Shed envy!!!

[@JoaquimParis]

Mr, Your videos are always welcome, whatever the style. You'll always have a cold beer for u reserved on my fridge @ my shop. Cheers.

[@DWard-fz9jv]

I always love your videos. A big, big thank you. I live my woodworking and related activities vicariously through you and other KZbinrs like you.

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Yes of course we like this video....well, except the 13 people that gave a thumbs down, but that's nothing! I rather enjoy all your content, so keep it up!👍

[@err0r404_]

hello i watch your amazing videos from morrocco its a real pleasur thank you

[@martinpennington4429]

storage is so important, and such a pain, and commercial forms are often too token to be of much use. Excellent ideas particularly the ladder.

[@mandyleeson1]

Really great video. Very useful with the addition of a few smiles along the way due to the splendid animation. Thanks very much for sharing this.

[@davidroe4121]

This was great, really enjoyed it. I’m excited that you get to expand your shop some! That’s always fun. Now to watch the ladder video.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much David! :)

[@jewdd1989]

More shop builds like this!!! I don’t use metal but regardless it’s the concept! Love the organization

[@PaskMakes]

There should be a few coming up! :)

[@williamhector6863]

Very funny sound effects You have given me some food for thought Keep the videos coming Thanks for bill

[@IR-nq4qv]

You have plenty of room height overhead to build an upper deck. Great job, good and strong. I watched the vids backwards, still equally enjoyable.

[@barstad-9591]

I figured you’d find someplace to put a metal shop and I’m happy for you that you did!

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks Barbara - it's been long overdue! :)

[@grosbeakmc]

Nice job! From what little I know of welding I understanding that grinding off the galvanized finish greatly reduces the fumes. And another benefit of flux-core welding is that it's not affected by wind as MIG welding is. Of course, there is more spatter and more cleanup... but not a big deal.

[@condoti]

Super awesome video. The footage for the last minute must have taken some time. I appreciate you.

[@TimPiggott]

Just as inspiring as all your other videos. The flux core tip for galvanized metal especially! 👍🏻

[@DRCE777]

I was so intrigued by this video that I think I'll take up welding as a hobby someday.

[@motari6249]

the best racking build i ever seen nice job .

[@Asemkamal]

great project ... loved the stop motion animation at the end

[@Falcon843]

Never disappoints, Very nice work! Also, some of the best camera/editing work.

[@davesmith4957]

Nice design and execution! Thanks for taking time to record and post!

[@jimsjacob]

Nice sound effects, Mr. Pask! Great build. I’m thinking whatever you put on those top shelves had better not be a needed item. That’s way up there! 😋

[@FixitFingers]

The OCD in me loves this. Looking forward to the great shop split!

[@freepress8451]

Good idea adding the guide and a platform to the ladder

[@billiondollardan]

good improvised stop lol. just move the bandsaw over! i like it

[@rchavez5056]

It's called a "saw stop".

[@davewilliams6172]

Very nicely done Mr P. Hopefully you won't need any more storage space for six months or so lol...nice idea with the ladder, am just off to watch that one now 👍

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Dave! :)

[@mountainviews5025]

Very Awesome this will help you very much to get thing's off the floor and organizations is a must for a shop great job thumbs up my friend awesome job

[@cheffrin3751]

They look great, I need to do some sort of wall hung organizer in my garage, as I don't have enough space for something like this but would like the organization.

[@lalski08]

Excellent. You're a very resourceful person. More like this please............

[@marcusretaken72]

OK... Now maybe I can justify to my wife that flux core welder I've been wanting to pick up. :D Thanks for that! Great little project!

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks Marcus! This would be a perfect project to try a new welder out on! :)

[@raukuracave4714]

This is great content. Love.seeing stuff like this is just what people want to see because its something practical that sparks ideas for improvement in our own lives..

[@cavaleru31]

nice end scene! this is realy neat build!

[@AuraAraucariaceae]

Nice vid! The ending was wonderful

[@fongfattchee777]

Wonderful project. Just one person - awesome project!

[@zonegamma8197]

I like these shop organization videos

[@BsBucWiLD]

Dude, I wish you would do some more stuff like this with your other content!! I really enjoyed it!

[@alfiversen7023]

Great making! I get inspired to tackle my own garage, would be nice to find space for the car..

[@johnlanham9057]

I love this. This is exactly the sort of content I scour youtube for... Thanks and carry on!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@ianvicedomini2648]

Love the video mate very humorous and a superb shelf build.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Ian! :)

[@CraigsWorkshop]

Love the video! Thanks. I'll be keeping an eye out for those community notifications for similar videos. Cheers, Craig

[@PeaceTrainUSA-1000]

Great craftsmanship, including the edit.

[@ricardodueck261]

Can we give him a round of applause for the very last bit of the video

[@toganick]

I didn't hear you mention it, but just an FYI: welding galvanized steel is a good way to get metal fume fever. You should grind off the galvanization with a flap disk and a respirator on before doing it, or just get raw steel and finish it after.

[@PaskMakes]

I did mention it! It would be a lot of work to grind the galv off on a project like this, it would almost double the time. There isn't a problem at all if you wear a respirator and work in an open space as I stated. :)

[@steelpennyforge5152]

looks great! I will be following along with all the videos in the series...gotta go, need to learn to build a ladder!

[@kadaverf]

Outro is even better the second time!

[@jerryjohnsonii4181]

Awesome storage racks !!!!!!!

[@arkadiuszarkadiusz9135]

Pask Makes uwielbiam twoje filmy jestem z Polski to tam przed Rosją 😂 dzieki twoim produkcjom czerpie inspiracje !!! Świetne filmy !!! (Pask Makes I love your films I am from Poland, there before Russia 😂 thanks to your productions I get inspiration !!! Great movies !!!)  Poznaj wymowę

[@PaskMakes]

Dziękuję bardzo! :)

[@allanh4803]

Great job mate. Perhaps add some safety rail to your ladder when standing on the top platform.

[@jonathan2585]

Your definitely a jack of all trades! You should make a knife sharpening video cause I cant sharpen anything to save my life

[@george8873]

The grunting sound effects were a nice touch, lol.

[@FredMcIntyre]

Awesome job Neil! 😃👍🏻👊🏻

[@leksey7870]

Huge shelves! Now everything will be in its place.

[@martimajor4766]

what a guy! Such a genius! Lucky wife!

[@nucupanzaru9609]

Super work and super workshop!🏆

[@mcwbyu82]

This content is great, dont avoid it

[@SNMCustomWork]

Very nice space to save all 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@patricktkeegan]

Love the vid. Definitely adding this to my long-term to-do list!

[@loch1957]

I love these videos, keep making them.

[@staxter6]

What a finale, wot a star job..

[@billkellogg1403]

I am a wood hack! You are an artisan!

[@Spamcatcher1964]

Nice work and nice video.

[@cbpuzzle]

So jealous of all that shed space u have

[@Princess-os4qj]

That outro was awesome!

[@ivan7453]

Nice job, Neil

[@Troutj15]

Lmfao the grunts and claps were the greatest thing you’ve done in any of your videos!

[@SuperGrover]

I had a similar GMC length stop. The model I had could also keep doors open.

[@PaskMakes]

Haha - pretty useful things! That one doesn't work, I bought it that way for $20 if I remember correctly. I think it just had a few things missing but the motor works. :)

[@baxterboy23]

Workshop.!! I've seen smaller warehouses that that lol. Y'all so lucky bro.. 😁

[@marc-bernardlevesque5016]

I just spent the summer visiting one of my workers who cracked his skull because he fell just 4 feet at the back of a van. It took him 7 weeks to get part of his skull back in his head since they were storing that bone in a fridge. They were waiting for his brain to shrink back to its proper size. I wish you don’t have to fall from this contraption and have to go through he went through. He will be back to work next spring.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks for your concern Marc! I've been working off ladders extensively for most of my adult life and I'm very comfortable with them. I understand very well the risks. 10 years ago while working on a building site I stepped on a ladder to go from the first floor down to ground level. The builder had put it there and was 3m high. I'd gotten onto that floor from a different access and hadn't been on or seen that ladder before. The ladder wasn't secured at the bottom, when I got on to it the ladder kicked, I fell and broke my back. The first and only time I've broken anything and exactly a week before my daughter was born, not good timing! Even after that it doesn't concern me to go on a ladder as long as it is safe, secure and common sense is used. The problem with the one I fell off was it wasn't secured which made it unsafe. :)

[@TheOneWhoMightBe]

I don't recall the exact statistics, but I believe that a significant majority of work-related head injuries are from falls of less than two metres, because you don't have time to dispose of what you're carrying or to properly brace yourself. My SiL and my girlfriend's mate both have broken forearms at the moment simply from falling over.

[@schonnj]

Fantastic work!

[@fredericktorres3228]

Awesome

[@albertogiuffrida2864]

Again .. just Ri WOW !!!! Good Job! Hello from Italy

[@phillipjones3342]

Fantastic love the levity

[@PaskMakes]

Glad you enjoyed it Phillip! :)

[@Buddy-po4hv]

Ozzie mates are the best, right next to Ozzie Sheilas

[@SuperKwame1]

Excellent work.

[@mehranfreeman6192]

Well done mate 👍

[@spxyx]

Very nicely done. You assumed when putting the two halves together that your floor was level, that is a luxury some of us don't have... :(

[@PaskMakes]

Thank you! I expected it was going to be out. Also the post was slightly off upright (only a little) and didn't help as I was bolting the racks to it. :)

[@jeffgoldenberg9579]

They're actually more than good looking enough for a modern wall unit/bookcase (scaled down a bit).

[@Murpie2u]

Nicely done!!

[@mrkrause3]

Great job mate!

[@CurmudgeonExtraordinaire]

I think I would have added an angled piece between the horizontal top of the ladder and the semi-vertical part of it so that it would be a bit more sturdy if I was carrying up a heavy item.

[@gunterhausfrau]

I see several comments about how to clean up the zinc before welding, but my question is why not skip it all together? do you need galvanized when the shelves are inside? or is it that you couldn't get raw steel?
