Bits in the garage

I made a couple of minor changes in the garage to make things more convenient.

I added a bike maintenance stand to the exiting bike rack. The clamp was the one I used in my old shed, up to a couple of years ago. 


It fitted in the key clamp tubing and I added an interlocking joint so that it holds in two positions. One for use and one out of the way. The idea came about last weekend because I had a quick task to do that was more convenient on a stand, but setting up the portable stand took almost as long as doing the job.


This arrangement makes quick jobs that little bit easier.


The other bit of tidying up I did was to add a vertical rack for long lengths of steel bar.


I would have preferred a horizontal rack, but that would be harder to fit in.
