I've been away from this forum for way too long...
I have just moved from a house with garage where I stored my wood on old grocery store shelves, so it was 100% supported. This worked OK but had issues with loosing boards because they got buried at the back/bottom of a shelf. I am now living in the house I where I grew up, which as pluses and minuses. Memories and getting to enjoy pecky cyprus paneling again are a big plus, but a smaller shop is a big minus... (dropped from 20x20 to 10x20 ). Needless to say I did not keep the grocery store shelves...
I am now looking to build a simple rack on one wall. It will be roughly 9' log by 48" tall. I'm thinking to use these brackets: http://www.leevalley.com/en/Wood/page.aspx?p=65206&cat=1,43326 and would love to get any available advice (or opinions ) on optimal spacing of the supports in a wood rack.
