Nice job, I never thought of using this system the way you did. I have seen it in the gasrage hanging from the ceiling.
Kevin is right, Kreg did make this a lot easier than if you didn't have it.

Thanks! With the risk of sounding like a commercial, Kreg really did make this easy.

Great storage solution, Kevin! This project was featured on the Kreg Jig Facebook Fan Page.

A small alcove coming in from the garage was the perfect spot to add some much needed storage, but, all the systems available at that large organizational store didn't adequately use the space, and cost entirely too much. Some white ash, full extension 100-lb soft close drawer slides and a couple pocket holes made this project come together, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The most expensive part were those fancy baskets (bought at said large organizational store) but all other materials totaled $125, the store-bought system would have hit over 400. Sure I stole their idea, but it was a good one. When you need something they slide right out for easy access, but then go right back and stay out of the way. The hardest part was shimming the supports to account for the not square walls, but building the frames with the Kreg jig took minutes at most. I made one frame wrong (always has to happen) so I beat on it with a hammer to test their strength... I was impressed, these frames are super strong. Thanks for looking, hopefully this will inspire someone else to get rid of some clutter, its easy!
