Here's what I've been working on the last couple of weeks. Hopefully this should save me some floor space in my 30' X 45' pole barn. I've done most of the work myself. My father inlaw cut the stair stringers.
I used only the 6" X 6" poles of the building to anchor on to. I did not attach any joists to the 2" X 6" girders that the pole barn's sheet metal is attached to.
First section Roughly 10' X 12'. I will build 2' deep shelves on the cantilever.

Second section I will also build shelves on the cantilevered section. That way, I wont have to put up any railings.

Sheeting D*mn that OSB board is high priced! The gap in the bottom is where a step will be, eventually.

Peak I will probably build some shallower (probably 1.5' deep) shelves on this wall. As you can see, I can go pretty high.
