Another tip, i personally only use pressure treated lumber if it's touching concrete or metal. I would have either built new walls in front of the metal framing or just attach horizontal pressure tested 2 by 4s every 2 ft up and attached to that
Tip. Drill the wood then take a 16 penny nail or a deck screw and punch a indention into the metal 2 by 2 and then put the screw in, either that or predrill ever hole, just don't over torque the screws either way out they will strip easy
Another tip, it's best to have an air gap in between your metal, insulation or wood/ sheetrock. Having it full of insulation doesn't allow moisture and air to rise as it's heated. You're asking for mold and rot behind that plywood. Hope I'm wrong but i never am
Thank you. The 1/2 hold small weigh just fine so far. I hung my stairs from it and I have had 0 issue so far. If I need to hag something heavy I screw a 2x4 to the wall and hang the heavy item off of that. That way the weight is distributed more and holding from a single screw

@@Leggobrandon40bang good point. Hopefully I won’t have to deal with mold but I didn’t think of that when I put it up
I like this idea but will you be able to hang things on 1/2" is? Also, I'd like to know how you did on the corners.

@@AB_thingsDFW also for the corners I did but joints and picked them together. Then out a 2x4 along the seam to keep them flush together.
@@DavidWadeDesign thanks for the ideas. I'm going to follow your corners tip. Will try to make a video on it
@@AB_thingsDFW please do. Let me know when it’s out and I’ll check it out
Manbun says it's all.
