- Tractor Implement Storage - Easy And Affordable Homemade Compact Tractor Attachment Storage Rack
In this video will show you how we built homemade storage racks for the attachments and implements on our compact tractor.
We have a lot of attachments for this John Deere 2038R and needed a better way to keep them out of the elements.
This DIY shelving system works great,
We built it in an afternoon for less than $300
I used 4 x 4 posts On the corners, 2 x 6 x 12 joist in between.
I tied all the main joints together with half inch diameter by 3 1/2 inch long lag bolts on all the corners. In a couple of spots where There was clearance I used 6 inch long lag bolts instead
I used joist hangers for the other joist
The shelving is covered in three-quarter inch plywood

At Rock Hill Farm and Homes we upload new videos at least 3 times per week, about our 20 Acre hobby farm, our John Deere 2038R compact tractor and other equipment, and the businesses that we run.
These businesses include a manufacturing operation, a Christmas tree farm, real estate investing, a lawn care business, and an online retail store. I demonstrate how I am able to use these ventures to earn a good living without a traditional job.
We have some cool toys and always think outside the box on our little homestead so come along for the ride.
You can expect new videos from us every other day, usually around 8 AM.

prediction, those forks go through the back of the garage :) nice build
Nail some cheap nail aprons to the face of wood for bottles of additives ,clamps ,buckets,small hand tools great idea
Another great video on something I'll need to do in the near future. I'll probably add some protection to the back wall or I would be pushing my forks or the grapple tines through the sheet metal when trying to reattach them.
Yeah, I need to do that
I second that. Pallet forks will go through sheet metal like it wasn't even there. Any old 1x6, fence picket or similar as a kick panel to the back of the shelf would give adequate warning. One wrong move at the end of a rough day would make it even rougher.
Thanks for sharing. I’ve been lucky so far. It’s been a year and a half and I haven’t damaged the back wall
It has been my intention to put up a backing but I haven’t got around to it
Your forks hit the back wall in your video. Maybe you didn't notice... must be a noticeable dent outside...
Great video. Thanks. I followed your plan and last weekend my son and I built something similar. They shelves worked out great and all my implements are in their own place now, instead of scattered all over the place. Thanks again.
I would build a stop wall on the rear where your forks are going. One day you will kick yourself for accidentally punching through your back wall. You could screw down a wooden pallet to be your stop and also help with the forks not tipping back towards you.
Yeah, I’ve been thinking the same thing. It’s just a matter of time before that happens
That's a dam good idea.
@@RockhillfarmYT- I was thinking the same thing.
Almost 3 years later and I’ve never hit the back wall
as always I enjoy your videos I don't have as much space as you do or as much equipment but with a few changes I think I can adapt my shed to build a similar shelf arrangement
thanks
Great job. That’s going make your attachments last so much longer! Thanks for sharing. -Ed
Thanks
It has been really convenient
Very helpful. I need to build an outdoor lean to version of this for my attachments.
Nice work! I was thinking of building a lean-to with this sort of stacked storage, so this helps a lot. I think I would add some sort of center post, since that seems like a lot of weight stretched across what looks to be 16 feet. Well done video! Moved along quickly, while still explaining each step and easy to see what was happening.
That gives me an idea for my barn. Thanks
Indoor storage is the way to go.Much more organized also.Working on it this year here.Nice job.
Thanks. I’m struggling to decide how to organize the Quonset Hut.
Plywood on the back wall would help to protect the building from an accident.
I mean, that’s just awesome! Great idea! Great editing!
Thank you.
I appreciate it
Good deal. Nice and simple. Thanks!
Pretty cool man. Always feels good to be organized. 👍
Thanks
Great project Brock. Need to build one of these two. Nothing more frustrating than jockeying attachments all around to get to the one you want. - Josh
Thanks
It actually has been a game changer for my organization
I'm thinking of using pellet racking as implement storage.
Thanks for the video. I've been trying to come with an idea and this really helped😊
Boy, that's a lot of green. Looks good.
Thank you sir
I like it. I have a similar size tractor with 3 front and 3 rear attachments. My shed is smaller, so shelves are needed. I was going to build only 1 shelf, but 3 looks better. Thanks!
This Has been a huge improvement to quickly switch attachments and keep my equipment organized and out of the weather
Since these trackers Don’t lift that high you have to build the shelves just the right size for your implements to be able to reach a third row, but it does work
Hey Rockhill - your best video yet! I didn't realize you had so many attachments. Great John Deere customer! I love that you're getting them all in out of the weather, and the shelving system you made is outstanding. You're right, what you need is always at the back when everything is on one level. This is perfect. Great job! What is the music you used? I love it.
Thanks for all the kind words. I’m really happy with this rack and I’m already planning a second one for the three point attachments
I get all of my music from epidemic sound but I can’t remember the name of the tracks off the top of my head
Great video and nice build. Friendly suggestion, next video turn the music's volume down. Less is more.
Yeah, I’ve made about 400 videos since this one and I have learned a lot.
Thanks for watching
Awsome job! You had a storage problem now you don't.
Awesome idea!! Appreciate the video!!
Thanks
This has been a huge space saver
I am planning to do this same idea.
I just made a vertical MMM stand with rollers. Posted in Kubota. I need to consider something like this, scaled down to maybe four bays.
Great idea, I need to do something like this
Thanks
I have expanded it once since this video and I’m getting ready to finish it all the way across the back wall for my 3-Point attachments
Nice job, but definitely need to add some bumpers to back for each shelf to avoid damage from loading and off loading the attachment. No matter how careful you try to be, one day something will happen and you don't won't to cause damage to the metal siding of your building.
Thanks for watching
This is exactly what I've been planning to do for quite a while! Maybe I'll get on with it now that you have inspired me! BTW, it bothered me a bit that the 2nd shelf rocked a bit when you loaded it - perhaps you ought to put some angled braces running up from the posts to the front of the 2nd shelf?
Nice job!
Thanks
Great idea man great video go up instead of out
I’ve been using this for almost a year now. Works great and I have expanded it more
Thanks for watching
Good job ,I need to make one.
I’ve added to it several times since then and made custom pallets for my three point attachments to be stored on shelving too
Thanks for watching
Very nice setup
Thanks
Great Job..... Kubota Rules.. Have a great holiday. I think you tractor implements are sick.... they're all green.
Nothing runs like a Deere
Made in America. Nothing like Anti American Japan Kabota
I try to buy American anytime I can although sometimes that’s not even an option. I think all of the tractor manufactures do get some of the components from overseas.
I know that my tractor specifically was assembled in America
@@ralphfarmer7621 haha. John Yanmar Deere is the full name.
Need to add a 2x10 Buck-behind your forks so you don’t punch a hole in your Siding
Thanks for sharing
Man that is awesome! I am going to do the same with mine. New Sub! Thumbs up and thanks fr the awesome video!
Thanks. I have added to it a few times since then and now have the ability to put my three point Attachments on a shelf
@@RockhillfarmYT I know I am watching your video of the shelving with the diesel and gas under the shelving. Looking forward to your other videos. I just bought a brand new New Holland Workmaster 25 compact and have a box scraper, forks a blade and a front snowblower coming in this week hopefully. I have a video to post tonight of the tractor and loader.
Congrats on the new tractor
I just bought a scaffold from Harbor Freight a couple weeks ago and built a lower shelf on it to store implements. So it can easily accommodate 2 implements per scaffold. Going to buy a 2nd scaffold and do the same thing which will give me space for 4 implements, and since the scaffolds are on wheels I can roll them around out of the way and roll them out for easier access to swap out implements...rather than trying to build a solid system like you did, I decided to go with the scaffold idea due to space issues and not 100% sure yet where their permanent place will be in the shop....I think once that happens though I'll build a similar shelving system like you did where I can just drive up pickup the implement I need with the pallet forks, get it on the ground and hook up and go.
I have the same scaffolds that I use in my main shop. Great value but I just don’t use them for attachments because my equipment shed is on a hill
Since this video was made I’ve done a lot of additions to this equipment shed.
I’ve built custom pallets for all my three-point attachments and those set on shelving as well
I even have a custom Backhoe hauler
@@RockhillfarmYT you should do an update video showing the improvements and giving an update on how you like the system.
Awesome idea, I’m stealing another from you, nice work!
I will be doing an update as soon as the Quonset hut is done and I get all my equipment organized
Thanks for watching
Great video and smart thinking to protect your investments. How many farm yards across our country have rusting equipment spread in various parts of their property.
Thanks. At this point I’ve extended the shelving all the way down the building and I’m putting up a Quansett hut next to it
@@RockhillfarmYT I'm planning to follow you as you build it.
Thanks
Childcare by Samsung, lol.
Great job
Thanks
The shelving system has been a huge benefit to my implement organization
If you seen on my video I’m building a 16x24 tractor shed in the spring. Have been looking for some ideas to get my implements all in there tu for the ideas
I’ll have to check your channel. Thanks for watching
I would appreciate that I’m small just starting but my family love doing the same thing yours does. Have a great day .
I’ll definitely check it out. I really just started about three months ago and I feel like I’m getting the hang of it now
Why don’t you build some covers out in the field for those heavy and large attachments?
Do you mean build something like I already have right here? I already have a building for storing these…
About a year after this video was published. I did build another equipment building.

Can you tell me the height of the back wall in your shed?
I'm looking to building a shed for my 2032r and it would have the same reach as the 2038r
The top shelf is 72 or 73 inches high So that you can still reach it but you have plenty of room underneath for two layers of implements
I don’t know how high it is at the back wall but 3 feet away from the wall it is 10 feet high.
I used four by fours 10 foot long and they were touching the tin roof
I take my implements on and off of this shelf system every day and it has been a game changer for my organization and keeping everything dry
@@RockhillfarmYT thanks for the info
Maybe I missed it, or maybe I just fast forwarded too much. You used 4x4's for the supports. Were they 2x6 or 2x8 on the shelve supports and how far was the spacing (16 inch OC)? I'm looking at building something similar that needs to be 3 implements high that includes 2 snowblowers and a belly mower. So guessing the implements weigh around 400 lbs apiece (on the high side to be safe).
They are 2 x 6 on 16 center
It’s been up for over a year and I put a ton of weight on the shelving
Worked out well
Brother.. what are the dimensions of that rack?
So your forks don't hit your metal siding, a plywood back board would have been good!!
Been 2 1/2 years and haven’t hit them yet. Maybe one of these days
