what you reckon with the price of these shelves? i think their crazy expensive,196 euros each,i need 2 ,but i be f****d if im paying 400 for 12 ft of shelves...im going to try 2cd hand stores and see if i can do a lot better than that ,or am i behind the times where things like this are concerned ,lol

Made a mate shelves for his shed from scaffold planks, first two rows were double width for a bench and a shelf underneath and then two single shelves above and it turned out spot on.

Make them out of 3x1 1/2 and either 18mm osb or 18mm ply I’ve made loads and they’ll take 250+ kilo of weight no probs

That’s how our shelves and racks at work are made and they’ve last over 15 years.

They’re pretty straight forward no mitres or fancy joints just straight cross cuts and screws and nails for anybody who isn’t good with they’re hands or for a more skilled man then he can house the racks and mitre the corners of the timbers under the ply and if they’re free standing just plumb them up and nail a batton diagonally at the back to hold them square

Just have a drive round your local trading estate most warehouses have stacks of the stuff laying around and if you don’t want to take it just ask I,m sure someone would give you a load for a drink, think cost co online also sell those units for cheaper than that and deliver, fecked if I,d pay 400 for a couple of shelves a sheet of 28 mm marine ply is only 140 and will last for ever and won’t bend or warp
