Recycled Wood Rack

We had an old dining room table with a glass top that broke. I decided to reuse the frame to make a wood rack for my garage.

The frame had the legs removed. I drilled four holes through the ceiling in my garage, making sure to go through one of the 2x4s lined up with the outline of the frame. I drilled matching holes on the frame. I put threaded rods down, putting a large washer and 2 nuts above and a washer, nut, and codder key below to hold the frame.




Obviously with an aluminum frame, the key thing for use will be not to overload it. Still, it should be able to hold a fair amount of lumber up and out of the way.
