Preparation
- 1 - 1x10 @ 2 feet long
- 1 - 1x4 @ 3 feet long
- 2" self tapping wood screws (try spax or similar, look for the star bit ones, can use trim screws)
- 3" self tapping wood screws for hanging the bike holder on the wall (you'll just need two)
- Wood glue
- Handle and hooks
1 - 1x10 @ 12" - back
1 - 1x10 @ 10-1/2" - bottom
2 - 1x4 @ 10" - sides
1 - 1x4 @ 12" - front
Instructions
Step 1
Notch the sides out of the back with a jigsaw to match the ends of your 1x4 boards.
Step 2
Attach the two side 1x4s to the back, with two screws into the back. If wood splits, take a second to predrill holes. Use ample glue - this is a structural joint.
Step 3
Attach bottom to sides and back with glue and screws. Predrill screw holes if necessary.
Step 4
Attach front to shelf. The front is not structural - you can use 1-1/4" brad nails if you have them.
Step 5
Use jigsaw or hole saw to notch out sides. The notch does not have to be super deep - just enough to keep the bike from moving on the shelf.
Hang the bike holder on the wall with 3" or longer screws into a stud in the wall with at least two screws.
