TAPE! As a small child, I would take ALL of my parents tapes (masking, duct, electrical) to create these massive cardboard fortresses for my GI Joes! One year for Christmas, I got MY OWN TAPES! I love tape.
I did the exact same thing.
I did the same only I made spaceships and airplanes. We were pepakura before pepakura was cool. :D
Handy solution. If you ever see my shop, you'll immediately understand how much I appreciate "quick & dirty" builds!
easier way to do it would bbe to not have flat bottom of the shelf but slanted backwards that way no rails measuring required to danger of rolls being not deep enough and it will fit all and any tapes u might buy in the future
Fantastic idea!
Also, make sure the slanted bottom does not go all the way and touches the back piece that screws into the wall. The tapes will rest by touching the bottom and the back, but in a shop that corner/angle is going to became a mess with dirt/sawdust/stuff.
Same stuff with a pen holder that is a cilinder closed on one end, it will act as a dirt catcher

Good thinking!
more one day builds please ! I love videos like this
Will do!
Tape is such an awesome invention. Simple but so effective & versatile.
Imagine living in a world *without* tape.... no thank you.
So excited for you guys about your new shop!
Loving the new shop.
I purchased a piece of guttering and two wall connectors (along with end caps) and simply turned that into a shelf for my tape, fits all sizes and all accessible.
Splendid!
Bill!! Your shop build videos could not have come at a better time!! I also just moved and can have a small workshop in the basement! Thank you!
That's wonderful! Have fun in the new space. =D
I love how you designed the side pieces with a flat, to hide the end of the front pieces, and then mounted them upside down. Then had to trim the protruding corners. Always good to inject a bit of comedy.
Everything is so clearly lit and visible. Almost the opposite of Solo, the movie. :) Kudos.
I love that the end cards are all just him cleaning up something he did in the video
You could take a couple more triangles and add them in the middle of the shelf as a divider of sorts. It would help keep thinner rolls going over like dominoes when one is removed.
+1 for a fellow HP260 fan. Great tape.
I would suggest possibly angling one of your rails so that the space tapers, meaning you have space that will allow large rolls to sit on the base on one end and then the other end can securely hold your smallest rolls.
I’m gonna steal so many of your storage ideas for my studio space after the art academy moves in August!! Great ideas as always, Bill!
DO IIIIIT! =D
*shoots nail into wood*
"Nailed it" 👍
A v-shaped bottom would allow any roll size
maybe make the front clear plexi so you can see those small rolls that might get lost otherwise...
Great suggestions!
You can put small dividers to prevent the narrow tape rolls from leaning over. That will also help when grabbing the tape so you don't have to slide others roll over.
Good idea!
an awesome design!!
Simple but effective. I'd put a couple of dividers in to keep them vertical, maybe slideable along the shelf, if possible.
Ooh I like it!
So many ideas for making things more accessible but also look neat at the same time :)
Man I love making ^^
Cool! Did you think about making the tape storage modular and detachable? In the event that you need more than one kind of tape, you could add a cleat to the back and a handle to the top and carry the whole shelf with you to your workspace. Maybe V2... ;)
How very Frank Howarth of you. =)
Great idea!
"Nailed it!" haha bill
That's some pretty sweet storage you got there @2:15
I don't think I've ever been so excited for a tape tour lol. Looks good! Can't wait to see more of your shop updates! My tape storage is currently a PLASTIC TUB. Very fancy :P
Hey I get excited about tape too! =)
Love it! Gonna copy it. I saw Adam's right after he finished it and was totally impressed. Been wanting to make a tape holder ever since. ;)
Do iiiiiiit!
Nice quick build! Going to try to apply a similar approach in my work space, but something that doesn't require drilling into the wall.
I like the simplicity of this. My favourite is a wall of rulers and other flat measurement tools. I kind of need 50 shades of a single straight edge to feel safe and secure. Like one that is good for cutting is horrible at precision measurements and you know how the list can just go on.
Now Im going to say gloooooooo every time i glue something up. :D
Hahaa! You're welcome!
i would have had the rails taper from one side to the other and stacked the tape in order of size. tape is always a pain to store. love the new workshop and yes more one day builds :D
Was that a ILTMS sticker I saw at 2:25?
Yes. I believe it was.
I appreciate you showing your thought process with us at the start. Rolls of tape are always a pain to store.
Good eye! =D
I use the same system as you used before, pegs on the wall, or in my case, on the rafters, which are low enough for me to grab what I need,
Having to take tape off when I need the last one doesn't bother me that much, as this system is one of the more compact ones, and when you have a small shop, you have to compromise a bit!
If you were to make the squares that hold the rolls in place twice as tall, and add a chamfer on the inside edge it would allow for greater holding power and less tipping over of the tape. Also it mean that a greater range of tapes would fit more comfortably in the same space.
Also if your making two or more shelves having one slightly narrower to suit the narrower rolls of tape may look nice and add a nice touch!
Great ideas!
Now I'm even more jealous!!!
Thanks Bill! now my wife wants one
Bwahahaa!
I would add a place to store the Teflon scissors. I love them for tape - no glue build up. Also an exacto knife. Perhaps a slice of silicon on the end so you can lay down some tape and cut out the tiny pieces. Some measurement marks in case you know you need 7 inches?
Great ideas Pat!
Good idea!
*KCHUNK!* "haha nailed it"
Me: noooooo, Bill 😂😂
BWahahaa!
Nice easy storage, good job!
I was going to say pegs or hooks for small rolls of art tape (for pin striping). Crepe tape, etc. I have a bunch of rolls of 1/8 & even 1/16 width tapes that are about 2". Along the back panel, in the upper section above the smaller rolls. You also need some stencils and labels for what type of tape goes on which rack. "Delicate Surface".
Ooh yes labels are important!
Maybe make the whole shelf detachable from the wall so you can bring all the tapes and see which works best for the situation. Also maybe add some detachable compartments so you take a section of the shelf instead of the whole thing.
All great ideas!
I just love how at the beginning the one tape fell apart-
This is such a great idea! Thank you!
A simple upwards angle on the front of the shelf would serve the same purpose and then you wouldn't need to make the shelf as deep
Ooh I like that.
Another great video looked like it worked very well
If you have a V-shaped bottom you could put even smaller or bigger roll of tape in it!!!!
My tape storage is old spraypaint cans. thankfully all of my tapes fit on them.
Wow, a table saw with the safety equipment installed. In so many videos people take it off for "clarity".
I am TERRIFIED of that machine.
a simple wooden rod through all of them which moves either to the left or right to pull out the tape if needed and a long blade/jagged blade like the one a chainsaw has in order to cut small pieces of tape while still having the tape roll in the storage, like the small transparent tape has the plastic container but bigger, for all the tapes...
I tried something like that a couple of years ago and I found that I prefer to take the entire roll to wherever I'm working.
no flex tape you disappoint me
For comedic purposes you should made each time you nailed parts together, make it go faster lol
Thanks, in part, to the UA-cam channel "Project Garage", my tape collection is building up. So thanks for sharing your tape shelf build!
If you're looking to fill tgem shelves, check out that channel as the guy making the videos tries to answer things like "which duct tape is the strongest?" by testing a variety of different brands in a scienticious way. Also, he has videos with titles similar to "which epoxy is the best?", which I know might interest you as well.
That's fantastic!
I would suggest getting rid of the bottom shelf altogether and just use the rails. No dust build up like you would get with V angled shelves either. Maybe just make the front rail slightly higher than the back one? Just a thought. ;-)
Hmmm interesting idea. I'll toss it into the mix for V2.
I saw that @ILikeToMakeStuff sticker @2:26. You can't fool me! You should do more collabs with him!
We've got some ideas in the works. =D
Its.....just not the same without a "Hello fellow makers" into * sigh *. Good job though, now need one for all the sanding paper!
Speaking of Sanding, have you tried some of the reusable metal mesh sanding sheets? I picked up a pack last year when my local diy store had run out of normal sanding paper (yes, I was shocked as well considering its a big place) so grabbed a box of assorted mesh ones made my JCB and i have to say.......pretty good.
Anarchy Antz A For me I found that it depended what you were sanding. Some things tended to clump up so much and I couldn’t get it out of the holes, specifically Bondo. Other materials though like stone, and wood, fell out really easy or could be blown out with a shot of the air compressor.
So far have used it on primarily on wood and EVA foam and I think twice on wall plaster which did stick a bit but after a bit of flexing it and using a vacuum cleaner on it came out fairly ok. I think i more than had my money's worth though due to the re-usability.
I haven't tried those yet, but I'll try to remember to pick some up next time I'm at the hardware store.
Love your work Bill, and loving the new shop! if you ever decide on a version 2 then I must recommend "A Better Tape Dispenser" by Adam Savage over on Tested, just a quick FYI. Cant wait to see your next work once your settled in :)
Didn't make it 30 seconds into the video, eh?
I already have so many ideas for the next version. It's gonna be amazing! =D
I would of 3d printed individual adjustable tape dispensers that attach to a racking system via a clip, hanger , or magnets .
Good solution, maybe I hope it sticks ;)
Hi bill&brit!
The shelf is nice but the most helpful thing of the whole video was seeing how you mounted and leveled it haha Do you have a hack for getting perfect spacing when you are trying to hang something with built in holes? Besides a lot of transferring measurements :(
I haven't bought one myself yet, but this tool is used for making evenly spaced holes at any length: amzn.to/2H55fb6
You could put hooks on the front for the smaller tape? that way all the double sided tap can be put on the side?
Great vid
square edges on the tape supports will eventually damage tape surface especially if it’s quite a warm atmosphere. Other than that a good design really.
hmm, i've not tried it but could you only use long springs in a revolver's ammo configuration, they'd need attaching to something on the ends to keep their orientation. Then u can just put the tape vertically into the middle and the ring of springs would hold the outside of it?
"And yes I have seen how Adam Savage did it..." My first question.
And my first thought: "Of course you have, how could I even question that ^^' "
Suggestion: cut the inside of the "holder" pieces to a slight bevel
Top D+
Couldn't you of just make the bottom have a bit of a diagonal slant so they wouldn't roll out?
Great video and like the comment update. I need one of these in my life and looks like a quick fix to an enduring issue I face - Where do I keep my tape? Thanks!
So Do you think the back rail is really needed since you have the back panel? I need to change up my tape storage I have the dowel style too. like your idea better going to check out adam's and see which style I like.
How about sections on each end to install toilet paper dispensers with a cutter edge (jigsaw blade) for most commonly used tapes?
Oooh clever!
hey love the video. Why not make a V grove, so everything sorta balances in? Then have a small fence so they cant roll out?
Good idea!
I'm surprised you didn't make a V-shaped shelf which would be kind of shelf adjusting...I mean self adjusting.
Loving the storage/organization videos! What would you do for storing bottles of paint? I like having them stored horizontally with the bottom facing out so I can see what color they are. My current setup is....rough at best.
Currently our paint is stored in bins by the brand. It's working OK for now, but we might experiment with other systems.
Cool
I'm quite surprised you didn't make the shelves half length and set up a French cleat system for them so you'd effectively have 4 shelves (better tape type organization) that were transportable to your workstation
I might make one of the shelves into two smaller shelves along with some kind of cleat system for V2.
Me saw a ILTMS logo on Ye saw.
Good catch!
What's to keep the Gorilla tape from rolling forward & falling out when you go to grab a nearby roll & bump it? I swear I'm going to get organized...one of these days. I bought a bunch of storage bins, and did sort my costume material - fabric in one bin, leather in another. And I did put together a three-drawer organizer for my paints, except I didn't take into account how HEAVY 50 bottles of acrylic paint are and the fabric drawers don't have sliders or a back to the cabinet, so I have to be careful how I pull them in and out...sigh.
Hello!
Mine is inclined, so all tapes are pressed against the pegboard
Hi tested! Hi Adam savage!
One day Bill'D?
I see what you did there!
when is the last jazza vrartist video coming out?
If you don't mind, what brand bit driver bits do you use? I burn up dozens of Phillips heads every time I undertake a project
I have a grab bag of bits that I've happened upon over the years. No preferred brand.
that iltms sticker
Nice catch! Bob snuck that on my table saw when he was visiting.
Not even going to paint and distress them? Seriously? Come on Bill, WTF? :D hahaha... When do I get to come visit?
They will get plenty of real life weathering over the next couple of months! =D
What about doing a "V"- channel for the tap to sit on? Then tap size will not matter. The smaller it is, the further it sits down in the channel.
Fantastic idea!
Well all of the ideas I had that ,ight have been usefull have already been suggested/// dang it! lol! I did wonder what the music was though, it had a cool Native American feel to it, not relevant to the build admitedly but if you don't ask?
Something I got from Artlist.io
Why do you have an I like to make stuff sticker on your table saw?
Because Bob stuck it on there when I wasn't looking.
jazza vr suet jazza sent me hear
what the hell how do you come up with these ideas?
if i was in your place i'd probably just put them all in a box or something, and i'd call that "good storage" 😂
ᴜɴᴅᴇʀғᴇʟʟ sᴀɴs Lmao, once you start organizing a shop and make custom holders, everything HAS to have one. It's a never ending challange. I think I spend as much time in my shop working on tool holders as I do projects.
I do a lot of google image searches when coming up with ideas. "adhesive tape storage" was a good place to start.
Can you guys make props from gravity falls
Just to let you know the nails in your pin nailer should be up against the bottom of the gun where they come out and not at the top, that is more then likely why you had the jam. (Unless for some weird reason your gun is completely different from mine and thats what it tells you to do lol)
Thanks for the heads up. I guess I should have read the manual? =D
Punished Props Academy no problem :) but I'm confused what is this manual thing you speak of?
Punished Props Academy also since it seems you are new to the tool I'd recommend watching this video the second tip is really helpful ua-cam.com/video/wkoo4H3N5qw/v-deo.html
I notice that you never mention basic shop safety when using power tools.
We went over some table saw safety in this video: ua-cam.com/video/dkhPqELtVFA/v-deo.html
Why do you have your nails in the gun so high up?
Where is your Flex Tape?
what, no electrical tape?
That lives with my soldering station.
turn the 90 angle into a V with feet and make a tape trough. |v|
