how's it going guys welcome back to the patriot diy channel
as i get further along in my shop one thing i really need now is storage
in this video we're going to show you how to build some simple mobile storage shelves
if that sounds like something you're interested in make sure you hit that subscribe button down
below hit that notification bell and give us a big old thumbs up we really appreciate that
if you're interested in building these for yourselves i'm going to put a link to the plans
in the description below if you want to check that out now let's get to it
all right guys first thing we're going to do is start cutting the lumber for our shelves
we will have the dimensions for these in the build plans
now our shells are going to be a full eight feet long so we don't
have to do any cutting on those but we are going to go ahead and measure
and mark the location of each of the supports that we just cut
now we can lay everything out on the floor with our supports evenly spaced
and we're just going to clamp everything in place to hold it while we fasten it all together
and for that we're going to be using our dewalt framing nailer
and we're just going to repeat that process for all five of our shelves
all right now we can lay out the vertical pieces for our rack we're
going to measure and mark out the location for each of the shelves
now i found it much easier to go ahead and lay all this out on the floor to fasten these
rather than try to do it standing up
you'll notice that when we start mounting the shelves we switched to screws
just in case we needed to go back and move these shelves around in the future
we wanted our shelves to be mobile so we could move them around the shop if we wanted to
so we went ahead and mounted some three inch locking casters to the bottom
now that everything is assembled we'll go ahead and lift it up and start cutting our
plywood for our shelves to do that we're going to be using our wind
track saw we will have links to all these tools in the description below
we're going to secure the tops of those shelves with some inch and a quarter screws
evenly spaced along the edge of the shelves
once it was all assembled my shop buddy helped me sand it all down to a nice smooth finish
and then we're ready to load this thing up
all right guys that's it for how to build simple mobile storage shelves for your shop or garage
