Post pics of your garage. I have a small 2 car garage and I am looking for storage solutions that arent very expensive. (Saving all the money for The car) I just dont seem to have enough space.

If you use old kitchen cabinets it saves a ton of money. Also, make a bench out of wood and also make a facade cabinet under it. That makes allot of storage space too.

I used pegboard on a few walls and that holds a lot of stuff for me. And as Johhnymo mention, old kitchen cabinets work good too.

I have some pegboard up. I just have to much crap. Funny how when I moved in the house a few years ago the garage was almost empty. Now its too damn full!

Yeah you can never have enough garage space... I got 2 - 2 1/2 garages and that still isn't enough :(

I hang a bunch of parts from the ceiling with 12ga wire and lags for installing suspended ceilings.

Would that be the bunker garage built by the guy from Utah? Over the top, but very cool. Here's the link -

Don't waste space.

Those shelves to the left have been great. they are the same width apart and notched every 18" so I can move shelves around as needed. My fridge and compressor are actually under them now. The loft to the upper right has been helpful for things like interior parts.

Ahh, the 'hood shelf' lol. I've had all sort of stuff up there.

I have shuffled more around since these pics, they are all 4-6 years old. Actually I want to insulate and rearrange some stuff again. The last few projects highlighted some things I need to change before I start the next one.
