Coop stores have a deal on freestanding shelving units...
Were 129, now 49. Bastids, I bought 2 sets in Nov.

As the moth's would say "Jasus I don't mind kissing but I hate dat". :D
Sorry about the sideways pics!
They take a while to put together but they're sturdy, the big set takes 70KG, so 350KG total. MDF shelves.
To the Co-Op, for Glory!
1 set could do 2 benches about 1.1m high.
I'll measure WxD tomorrow.
Co-op ? ???
Golden vale coop superstores.
They're dotted around the country.
Possibly one around the corner.
Lidl or Aldi are doing these at the moment too for 42.99 I think..

Only in the home province John. What is the minimum distance between the shelves. Was thinking of getting somebody to pick a few up for me but chipboard shelving is putting me off because it's terrible with water & it's not great long term for taking knocks etc. Might lay a few rough cuts of plywood.

Yes unfortunately not around here,i could do with another two of these myself but not at normal RRP ;D
This is for the bigger one, I don't have the low down on the smaller one...
WxDxH -1200 x 450 x 2200
Shelves are MDF, Lidl/Aldi ones are chip board shelves, neither takes water well.
The 2200 high shelves can be set up as 2 x1100 I believe.

Going to try & get a pair of these from down the country. Should be able to paint the MDF to stop it absorbing moisture. No excuse now for my garage being like a tip :)

That's my garage half way tidy again. I actually have worktop space! ;D
Where is the nearest one of these shops to Dungarvan anyway as a matter of interest ? I wonder what would it cost or could i get a couple of these couriered here ? ;D I have an idea to turn one into a brewstand. :o
Goofle?

Goofle is that like Google's chinese cousin John ? ;D Tried google but apart from finding out they are all in Tipp no exact location as to nearest one to me,at this rate will probably end up building something if i can't get a couple of these at a good price. ;D

Got the last two of these from a co-op store in Clare. Just put the first of together & now have 80% of my cornies & 75% of bottles & cases squared away. But of a bitch to.put together given the amount of fiddling with them but for €50 a pop I can't complain too loudly. Thanks for the tip John who knows when I get the 2nd one up I might be able to get my car back in my shed :)

The first one took me ages, but I figured a few trick so the second took a lot less.
I bought 2 reduced price ones, which should go up a lot quicker.
A hammer, block of wood and screwdriver are essential for this.

Yes I know what you mean about the tips. I used a mallet & tape measure as my eye sight kept letting me down with the height of the spars. Was giving some thought to cladding them in plywood to allow me store stuff securely & also keep everything dry.
