My Ultimate Clamp Rack Storage Wall – Part 1

Join me on a 3-part series to build my ultimate French cleat clamp storage wall. This is part of my organization and space optimization journey.

The goal is to gather all of my scattered clamps and create an optimized storage solution for them. I’ll use an underutilized bit of wall space as I create a shiplap finish (part 1) and then add French cleats (part 2) along with clamp holders (part 3).

Part 1 (this video): Reclaiming and milling pallet wood into shiplap, installing insulation, and installing shiplap.
Part 2: Creating and installing French cleat system
Part 3: Creating and installing clamp holders with French cleats
