Numbered Filing System In Garage
Don Fleming, Zearing, Iowa: "I built this numbered filing system in my garage for stuff ranging from small tools to light bulbs. The plywood shelf is about 20 ft. long and 20 in. deep and is supported by a series of metal brackets. I keep cardboard boxes on the shelf, all numbered in Roman numerals. A file-sheet, mounted on the garage wall at one end of the shelf, tells me what's in each box so I know where to look for a particular item. It sure beats having to thrash through all those boxes to find what I want. I painted both the boxes and the shelf white to match the color of my garage walls. I keep lawn mower parts in one box, rags in another box, etc."
