As I have the workshop today, I have a huge pile of wood scraps under the chop and miter saw (much to the children's delight!). Much of this is construction timber. When I have my workshop, I haven't planned for there to be "that" much waste from studs and boards.
The question is, how do you store wood studs and boards before handling them, and where do the small pieces go later? Throwing away boards the size of A4 or larger is not an option. A lumber cart is one idea, but are there other good ideas out there...
Unfortunately, I don't have a good answer, but I do have the same problem. Therefore, I'm also very interested in what smart solutions people might have come up with!
Some like these on one of the inner walls in the garage:

And a few more like these:

At the bottom of each row, you place some studs or boards.
Over them, you can then place shorter leftover pieces.
The smallest ones are cut up, split, and end up in the fireplace for the winter

Ok, those were the studs. Mine are in three places. Full lengths, half lengths, and meter-long. Under 60 cm becomes firewood, at some point.
What are your thoughts on boards?
I have a smaller ceiling rack where I store relar and narrower boards. Otherwise, I have boards standing upright pushed behind floor-shelf-cabinet against the wall. Difficult.
I have some OSB boards standing against the inner gable in the garage. There are seven of them.
And two masonite boards, which I've secured with a couple of screwed-on planks.
The OSB boards are left from when the house was built, and before I laid proper flooring in the attic.
I should really give them away or sell them. Does anyone want them?
In my case, I have space for timber in the loft of the workshop, but I'm stumped with sheet materials as well. I don't really have space for such things the way the house is built, I feel. Just over two meters of ceiling height doesn't exactly invite having it in the ceiling either; plus, I have lights "in the way" there. I could find some space at the very back, but then I would need to get past the combo machine, band saw, drill press, and put wheels on the machine cabinet which makes it a bit tricky. If I didn't have cabinets above the bench, I could have stored sheets on that wall, I suppose? So my solution is to go and buy when I need it and then only save what fits. Someone else has said I can't have "such things" in the garage or in the storage part of the house where the workshop is located...
