From A Concord Carpenter:
Milwaukee PACKOUT Shop Storage

Milwaukee describes the method to attach to wood studs. A Concord Carpenter demonstrates three methods of mounting - blocking between studs, horizontal strapping (which is what I did) and sheathing the wall in plywood.

Huge shout out to Bill @ammerconsulting who recommends mounting 3/4 inch plywood to the wall to serve as a foundation for the Milwaukee PACKOUT wall plates along with fastener suggestions. He goes on further to say:

"That way there is no limit as to where you can put screws. A screw designed for wood has a sharper tip and there is less chance of splitting the wood, especially when the screw is placed at the end of the board. There are also screws that have a larger head, much like a washer that helps to spread the load and keep the screw head from pulling through the material. GRK makes a line of great cabinet installation screws with larger washer heads."

Thanks Bill!
