   2X lumber uprights with holes every 6 inches for dowels, pipes, or   
   rods allows you to reconfigure shelves in 6 inch intervals. You could   
   even set up for 3 or 4 inches instead of 6. Planks or plywood or   
   shelves. Cross braced, of course, to keep upright.   
      
   -------------------------------------------   
   That's a good idea but I found I hardly ever wanted to move shelves. I   
   spaced them for 16" high plastic tubs pushed to the back of the 24" shelf   
   with other stuff piled in front. Little things that are related like small   
   engine spare parts can be combined in labeled cardboard boxes and stacked to   
   use the volume between shelves efficiently. Hardware is in cabinets of   
   plastic bins, not sorted by length for compactness since it's easy to   
   compare to a tape measure. The lowest shelves are higher to clear propane   
   cylinders, 5 gallon oil drums, buckets of pipe fittings etc.   
      
   It helps to have a well lit shelf area left clear to sort through boxes.
