Systems and methods are provided for customizable cabinetry framing. The systems presented describe components which can be assembled into customizable framing modules for cabinetry in outdoor kitchens, farming sheds, restaurants, warehouses, or more. The methods presented describe making each component by cutting sheet metal or other sheet material, and then by folding the cut sheet metal, and using some fasteners. Standardized components may be assembled on-site into customized modules. These materials and assembly eliminate the need for costly and time-consuming welding at point of manufacture or assembly, while providing advantages in strength of the assembled framing modules. Various components may be packed for shipping in relatively flat units. The present invention solves problems with the currently available means of manufacturing and assembling outdoor kitchens and other custom framing built on-site. Lower costs of materials, manufacture, shipping, and labor for assembly result in more cost-effective and/or stronger framing.

A method for utilizing the aforementioned collapsible organizer is also disclosed, comprising: rotating the pair of the side walls; and inserting the pair of top rods to the slots of the pair of side walls.

METHOD FOR MAKING SHELVES
20220071389 · 2022-03-10 ·

Beams and posts are disclosed. The beams and posts may be used for racks or shelving. The beams and posts may be formed by folding a sheet of metal. For example, the beams and posts may be non-volumous or hollow. Optionally, a portion of the wall of the beam or post is thickened, for example, by folding over the metal back and forth. Optionally, the thickened portion runs the length of the beam or post. In some embodiments, a fastener (e.g., a loop and/or hook) is formed in the thickened portion of the wall. For example, the fastener formed by punching out of the wall. Optionally, the fasteners are used to connect the posts to the beams.

Method and apparatus for storing clamps
11154133 · 2021-10-26 · ·

A tool storage system has a universal mounting bracket coupled to a support surface formed with a plurality of apertures that align with differently sized support arms that support a tool therefrom. The apertures are aligned along a common horizontal plane and the support arms have different heights that allow tools to be hung therefrom in a nesting relationship so that more tools can occupy less space or area relative to the support surface. The nesting relationship of the tools provides for a first tool supported by the first arm to fit within a space defined by the second tool supported by the second arm. In some instance, the first and second arms may be part of a pair of support arms, respectively.

RESISTIVE EXERCISE HARNESS, RACK AND CART
20210322814 · 2021-10-21 ·

The present disclosure relates to a resistive exercise harness, a rack for use with the harness, and a cart for transporting one or more of the harness, the rack, or weights. The resistive exercise harness can be used to perform various functional movements/exercises and simulate loaded carries/movements relevant to certain occupations/sports/recreations. The resistive exercise harness can promote efficient biomechanics and decrease mechanical stresses on a user's knees and/or lower back relative to other resistive exercises such as a barbell squat. The rack can be assembled in a variety of indoor/outdoor environments for harness usage and disassembled for convenient storage and/or transportation. The cart can interface with the harness and disassembled rack for convenient storage and/or transportation in a variety of indoor/outdoor environments.
