Pipe Shelving

EPIC FREAKING PROJECT!


STAIN!


SCREW!


DRILL!


HANG!


At some point I got fired as carpenter's assistant and Peter brought in the neighbor to help instead. I knew I should have gone union! In case you're wondering about the load bearing capabilities of a shelf system hung from the ceiling...


It's plenty strong.


Pretty happy with the outcome. Look at all that fresh shelf space, and there was no hammer drill required this time! The shelves never actually touch the wall.

    Great job on the shelves, they look great. I like how you branched out from other DIY examples and affixed the shelves to your ceiling as opposed to the wall behind. What type of wood did you use? Pine or a hardwood?

  5. May I ask what stain you used?

  6. Your place is just awesome. Can't wait to move out and find a spacious place like yours. I just love the brick wall and floor! And the pipe shelves! Inspirations!
