Progress but not done yet. I got close enough to done to start living with it to see what needs to be adjusted. Also, other things had been neglected long enough.
These boxes are mostly empty. That way, it is much easier to shift them around until I get a fit I like. That will help with cutting the plywood in the most useful way. At a minimum, it needs two approximately 4' wide x 23" deep sections of the main shelves. Subdividing the two middle shelves might be good; I'm less sure after trying boxes on the biggest piece of leftover piece of plywood. It may come down to whether I put jars straight on the shelf or put them in the boxes.
Yesterday, I took a can of paint in for shaking. It is for the rest of the braces, two of the 1x2 beams (furthest back - by the studs), and all of the end boards. I might leave the 2x4 beams white.
I still want to fiddle with the details - different end boards maybe, trimming, and so on.
