Bond's NEW updated STORAGE AREA...

I have conquered half our our garage area for my militaria...at least my international stuff, the US is still hanging on the bar in the other room & the international desert uniforms are almost all in my bedroom closet hanging...Keep in mind...I still have more stuff planned for this room/area...but these are the preliminary photos...

here are the BEFORE photos:





AND....YES I have a dehumidifier....

NOW...the AFTER photos...

MORE...

Very Nice !!!!

Thanks..I just redid the helmets & hats...here are 2...I "found" 4 more plastic drawers to continue along the top row...and re-adjusted the helmets there to taking up 4 spots....instead of 8...



I moved old magazines & such from over the computer area to allow more helmets & the like...note: the desk with the toys is my sister's and eventually I probably will conquer it too...lol

Looks well organized!

Very nice setup!!
I'd consider strongly investing in a dehumidifier and run it several hours a day. As that looks like a potential humid environment.

You are right...I bought one 2 days before I "took over" the room....I run it pretty much constantly...cannot take a chance on ruining it all...

Wow nice!

I recommend humidifier. I have one in basement that is running 24/7 but check occasionally like once a day to throw away water. It works very well.

Hi Steven
Very impressive I like it

thanks guys!!!!

"Today the garage, tomorrow the rest of the house!!" Congrats!

Yeah, humidity levels are critically important. Too much or too little is a bad thing. I had some stuff in storage in an attic area and it got way, way too hot and dry there. Fibers literally dry out, which is (I think) not something which can be fixed. At least if you catch an over humidified item soon enough you can kill the mold/mildew before it becomes a problem.

the desert where I live is as dry as it gets , but in the house with the air in the summer things store real well , my biggest problem is dust !

what a great collection steve and good use of the room too
thanks for sharing
