Storing spray cans in my shop has always been a headache. While I’ve seen a lot of different storage ideas, a recent mission to use up some of the small scraps in my shop led me to the can holder you above.
Slant Shelves. As you can see from the photo and drawing below, the can holder is a wall rack. Three slanted shelves hold the cans in place. The holes are drilled with a hole saw, and each shelf is the same, with the exception of holes in the upper two shelves. The great thing about this design is that you can expand it to hold as many cans as you need by simply making more shelves and lengthening the sides.
Wall mounted. The rack hangs on the wall with a couple of screws through the back. A hardboard cleat holds the bottoms of the cans. Now, I can store all my cans of paint and lubricant where they’re easy to access.
