    My pole barn shop was in pretty poor organzation. My brother's work crew needed a week of jobs so they came to the farm. He had them remove everything, throw out/ move outside/ built shelving and work bench.

    Really made my life better in 8 hours of dedicated effort.

    I need to do that very thing in my garage! I have a very poor hanging arrangement for shovels and hoes etc. as well as various axes and such. It is totally inadequate. I really like what you have done for your tools!

    Sorry metalcuttr That’s not a garage. That is a museum with a gift shop. Should be moved to the thread where we all display our fine works of art and charge admission to see them... beautiful work you’ve done there. !!:yes:

    Not my idea, I found it on the interwebs and figured it was simple enough that I prolly couldn't screw it up.

    I love to have a few beers while "organizing" the garage and shed, which typically means transitions from gardening, to canning, to hunting, to ice fishing/spearing, repeat!
