- Join me in the shop as I show you how to install this garage organization system. It's a DIY alternative to the common French cleat wall.

5:20 I've watched a ton of videos, and you're the first person I've seen do this without a push stick
I used a push stick when doing the smaller widths on the 1/4” plywood but felt comfortable making the wider cuts without. When in doubt, push sticks are always better. Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a thoughtful comment.
Thank you for sharing. Great alternative. Definitely can just made additional units without the 45° cuts. Everyone stay safe, warm, happy and healthy. From Henrico County Virginia
I’m about to finish the last open wall in my shop with this system. I love finding new ways to organize with it. Thanks for watching!
Seems like a decent alternative.
Thanks. It’s been really great. I was sad to move out of my last home because I had done it there and it was amazing. It takes some time to get all the storage holders just right.
Better than me, i need a straight edge for cutting a straight line, awesome vid ,
Isubbed, hi from hull uk
This type of project is a great way to perfect those skills because it’s so repetitive. Thanks for watching!
When using your jigsaw on internal cuts like your outlet positions.... Maybe try 2 holes on opposite corners easier and much quicker.... Good, clear and understandable video by the way.
That is a great tip! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
@@FireflyWoodworking It's a pleasure. :)
The nice thing about cleats is that you make basically an unlimited batch of fixture cleats when you first make your wall, so you can glue those to the back of any fixture and be done. With this you have to cut a piece of alum and drill press(and screw!) for each one, seems like a lot of work. Especially since you had the table saw necessary to cut normal cleats.
Great point! It is nice to make the fixture cleat at the same time as the wall cleat and I absolutely use that method when I use French cleats for hanging cabinets or floating shelves. Super fast!
Pretty cool idea! How's the dust collection setup; planning any videos on that unit "in-action"?
So far it’s been really good. I am planning a couple videos about it. I wanted to see how it went first. I’ve had to make a few changes once I saw it in action. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!
@Firefly Woodworking awesome; Ill be on the lookout for a vid!
Your 3/4 plywood is birtch like your 1/4? So on the pricier side of plywood, but also really looks nice. Just wanted to make sure before i buy the wood.
Yes. It’s Baltic birch and marine grade because that’s all my lumber guy sells. So really nice with minimal voids (which doesn’t matter for the walls) but also more expensive.
Thanks, really looks great :)
Where you been. Hope all is ok.
Everything is awesome! I’ve been learning a new video editing software that’s great but has definitely delayed video production. I’ve also been working on some bigger projects and redesigning the shop. Thanks for asking and checking in!
