    I found a terrific idea for hanging rod storage on the internet a few months ago. I have had the parts sitting here in the garage for over a month, but just haven't took the time to complete the project.
    Using some 5/4 boards and a 2x6 I had laying around, I ripped the 2x6 in half length ways, and centered on the 5/4 boards, clamped and screwed them down.
    Then took 2 of these 1 1/4" pvc pipe hangers, butted them up against each other, and nailed in place. Each board will have 4 pairs like this. I took all my measurements and spacing to mimic the second board. Went on to fasten these to the rafters and approximately 8ft apart. It turned out great for my 14ft rods, with the tips out over the garage door when it's open, they should not get hit this way.
    Purchased the hangers at Lowe's for $0.89 each.

      Looks great. I used the pvc sheets of latice work. cut and hang from rafters does a great job as well and is cheap.

      Heck yeah. I work at a plumbing supply and have used j-hooks for years. They're awesome.

      Out of curiosity, where did you happen across this project? The reason I ask is I put a video on my YouTube channel earlier this year showing how to do a project almost identical to this.
