    Just a couple.

    What I started with
    IMG_20230128_092616.jpg

    Leaky saws sitting on corrugated cardboard. Over time, they become saturated and drip to lower shelf.

    I relocated that white tabletop to allow the bars a bit more room.

    I got a couple of boot trays and fitted cardboard on them.

    The real value there is the top shelf, to the right of the saws. Three unopened jugs of bar oil.

    I think it'll work for now.

    The black box, is my saw box with folded chaps on top.

    It doesn't look all that different. But it's the boot trays under the saws that was needed.

    It's time to cleanup a few other shelfing racks stuffed in there

    Once you do one shelf area, it will make everything else look messy so you will be goaded into doing the rest. Ask me how I know!

    Hey where did you get those plastic spill mat things? My saws tend to weep bar oil if I forget to empty the tanks and that looks like a good solution for it. Looking good!

    MikeInMa I would like you to come and pay me a visit. Before you leave, perhaps you could do some rearranging in my barns. :D

    Like eating an elephant - one bite at a time.

    Pick one corner in one barn, and start there.

    Got to a different set of shelves this morning

    What I started with.
    IMG_20230130_074759.jpg

    Removed and relocated a bunch of odds and ends. Some, relocated into to trash.

    That erea are my smoking woods. Hickory, apple,..etc.

    The red bag has varied tools.

    The milk crate is a wooding go box with fuel and oil.

    I ended up with a few empty nooks and crannies for other things as I work around the shed reorging.

    The side of the toolshed thus far

    The other side that will get its turn.

    At least I can walk around the snowblower now. The lawnmower goes there when the season changes

    It is rather satisfying after you do something like that. Keeps you going for the rest of the project.
