Nuts? - Where did you manage to find black 1-1/2" nuts? I've been hunting for those same style but in 1 inch. Can't seem to find them anywhere. »

Schmitt + Company It's actually very heavy 1 1/2" threaded steel rod w/ nuts on top & bottom of shelving. Big erector set. Rods took time to clean and degrease carefully and wax.

Where can I find wood like this? - I have researched these shelves and I understand the hardware needed. I'm wondering where I can find unique wood? A large home improvement store only carries pressure treated and other basic woods. Where can I find reclaimed wood? Would a lumber store have it or do I need to look at a different type of store? Thanks so much! »

zpdedoda Local architectural salvage companies (our local also salvages the old timber joists from city buildings). You might also check with smaller lumber mills in your area.

Wall Unit/Shelves - Did you use 1.5 inch bolts (top and bottom) to support the timber? This is very cool. Thank you! »

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Shawn Gauthier to Get Your House Back-to-School Ready
Load your kids' rooms with shelving; they’re going to need it to help them stay organized. Plus, starting them with basic organization tools will help them kick off the year on the right foot. This design is a great space saver as it includes both shelving and a desk.
added by Pangaea Interior Design, Portland, OR to Create a Customized Office Look Without Built-Ins
Think big and fill the wall with your storage. These free-standing shelves with incorporated desk surface were made from reclaimed, thick planks on long, threaded rods.
14. The contractors at this office made this fabulous bookshelf out of salvaged timbers and large threaded rod. The lime-green wall really makes the bookshelf pop.
