Rotating Food Storage Can Rack - Build Your Own

(Posting this so it doesn't get lost in the dusty recesses of my brain...)
**This post contains various links for making food storage racks. I have been adding links as I find info I don't want to lose.**

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I WANT one of these! (Or several, stacked on top of each other.)
Food Storage Can Rack (Watch this Youtube video) So so cool!

For a simple version, here are instructions for building small can rotators from cardboard - these would sit on your existing shelves.

Or if you want the real thing and know what you're doing, here are some instructions, or you can buy plans here. (I *think* this is the type in the youtube video above.)

Some free online plans: http://www.wikihow.com/Build-a-Rotating-Canned-Food-Shelf

Or, here's one for #10 cans, you would still have your "wall space" but it stores 200 cans. http://peaceofpreparedness.com/Resource%20Library/Emergency%20Prep/Canned%20Food%20Rotator.pdf

Here's a site showing how to make shelving to hold water barrels, plus rolling storage for #10 cans (or you could certainly do regular cans, too.) It has pictures and plans. (See links at the top of the site.) http://waterstoragerack.blogspot.com/

I might just have to figure out how to do this!
