Start by making the cuts per the plans. I used my miter saw to make the cuts but a circular saw works as well.

STEP 2 – BUILD THE RACKS

Start by building the frames. There are 2 types of frames – with the braces for shelves and without. Make sure that all the pocket holes are facing downwards as you attach.

STEP 3 – BUILD THE SHELVES

It is easy to make sure the spacings are right by simply using scrap pieces of boards cut to size. 

Step 4 – ATTACH THE SHELVES

Attach the shelves to the long frame with pocket hole screws and wood glue. This is easy to do by laying the frames on the floor and attaching them.

Step 5 – COMPLETE THE RACK

Finally, attach the middle racks using pocket hole screws and wood glue to complete the rack.

STEP 6 – FINISH

Be sure to finish the rack to protect it against the elements and wet clothes.  I also added a few hooks.
