I bought a wooden shelf at an auction Friday night and put it against a wall in one of my houses.
Unpacked some of the cans I have been storing and filled it up.

How could you be so lucky as to find a shelving unit with the correct spacing for quart cans? Pretty nice unit!

That looks like it was custom made specifically for those pieces. Very nice!

I always keep my yes open for shelving. Wood is expensive and it is time consuming to build costume with adjustable shelves. This shelf is not adjustable. I took a twenty buck chance an oil can would fit. I have quite a few cans of different sizes sitting around which make it work.

Here are some shelves I built many years ago to fit a wall. I made them adjustable.

I have a room I plan to build shelving for two walls. Maybe within the next six months or so.

Henry,

I'm requesting pictures of two cans I can't figure out what they are and it's driving me crazy. (Can nerd here)

The first can is in picture 3 to the right of the silver atlantic.

Second can is in the last picture to the left of the Green Castrol.

Thanks Scott

Thanks Henry, now I can sleep tonight.

I haven't seen either of those cans. Thanks for taking the time to photograph them for me.
