1. Any "Vault Reserve" will have more personal storage, equal to the (base) salvage storage at your level. (Easiest to find is in pocket D.)
2. If your SG has a vault door - it also links to the vault reserve.
3. SG storage racks can now hold up to 30 pieces of salvage each - but be aware, anyone could take them.
4. The Black Market/Wentworth's. The 60 day limit no longer applies.

2. Where can I make things and is it possible without any of my own recipes?

Any crafting table, typically in universities (and abandoned labs, villainside.) Also, your SG may have a crafting table.
You will need recipes for every IO and temp power/costume piece that can be made, HOWEVER, if you continually make common IOs (usually of a pair of levels,) you can memorize the recipe and no longer need it, which will also save money.
ParagonWiki link on memorization, with how many of what to get the recipe memorized.
I'd bookmark the main page of paragonwiki as well. It's a useful reference.
PS - There are three other things you can do without recipes:
1. Brainstorms. Since you're new, this probably won't apply, but until recently there were two classes of salvage - base and invention. Base salvage went away, but it could be converted into "Brainstorms," which could then be converted into invention salvage. Like I said, being new... probably not an issue for you.
2. Empowerment buffs. If you're in a supergruop, they may have an empowerment station. This will use invention salvage to give you some sort of buff if you have the right salvage - say, Lethal damage resistance, invisibility, etc. The effects will last for one hour. There are three tiers of station, each of which has a few more available buff types than the one before.
3. Craft base items. Check with your SG leader before doing so - they show up in personal items, and if deleted, they do not give the salvage back to anyone.
1) There are 'Vaults' all over. Each regular Zone has one. Find them on your minimap. Vault storage is again as much as your personal storage capacity.
2) Blueside, there are 3 Universities with crafting tables, Redside has one University in Cap au Diable and a few Abandoned Laboratories or somesuch with crafting tables in them.
Without Recipes you can make Common IOs, but it'll cost you an arm and a leg because you also have to buy the Recipe from the crafting table.

All zones with a Market should also have a "Vault". This effectively doubles the personal storage your character has for Salvage. You can't store anything but Invention Salvage there though; no Insps or Enhancements.
Pocket-D also has Vault storage. All the Vaults are the same thing and you don't have to travel to a specific one to get your stuff back.
Bases can also have Salvage storage bins if your SG has one.

Blue side, all of the Universities have Invention Crafting Tables. You can craft Recipes for which you have the correct ingredients and purchase Basic IO Recipes at them (buying Recipes this way is almost always more expensive than getting them at the Market).
Red side, there is only one University; located at Cap au Diable. However, there are "Abandoned Laboratories" with crafting tables in Port Oaks and Saint Martial.
People with the Field Crafter Accolade badge can also drop a crafting table anywhere they want for a few minutes every half-hour or so.
Essentially, you need the recipe in order to make anything. You can "memorize" Basic IO recipes and craft them without a recipe after you earn a badge for making a whole bunch of them. But if you are making them for yourself, it doesn't help much.

1)a)Several zones red and blue side have vaults reserves, that hold a limited salvage quantity
b)A Groups Base can also have storage vaults if the designer of the base has enough wealth and space on hand to place one.
c)The Wentworth/BlackMarket stores, allow you to store anything that is sales worthy(eg. salvage, recipes) , up to your current maximum.
2)a)Universities are where you craft (Villain side also has some Invention"Laboratories" on 2 zones I think)
b)Group bases(see: 1)b)above)
c)If you have crafted enough you can develope your own crafting booth
Paragonwiki has all the details!
thanks for all the great answers, where are the universities?
I am wondering about these empowerment buff stations???? I am a sg leader and in the 20 months ive been playin ive never heard of them. How do I get one of these stations? Any help would be great. Thank you.
You can build them in your base, you automatically have access to them just by having a base. You click on the Empowerment Station and it gives you a list of buffs and the salvage they require. All buffs last for one hour after crafting. There are two "upgrades" for the Empowerment Stations that give access to rarer and more costly buffs. All the buffs are minor.
You've already gotten your basic questions answered. I'll just chip in that, if you are full of salvage, you should probably sell it. If you decide later that you need it, you can always buy it back. Just try to sell it for a bit more than the average price, and buy it for a bit less than the average price. That's easy as long as you let your buy and sell orders sit on the market for a day or two, to take advantage of the way prices fluctuate.

Not entirely. KB protection - 10 points, for one hour. That's better than the IOs, better than Acro (unslotted - and it doesn't cost END,) and IIRC better for many levels than some powerset KB protection (though they tend to have resistance as well.)
Grant invisibility - an additional 25'/250' (PVE/PVP) of stealth, with no END cost.
Attack speed increase (IE, recharge reduction) - 20% Maybe not earth shattering, but still useful.
Increase perception - 20% (100 feet) - going to deal with night widows? Bane scouts? Ghosts? Every bit helps.
Slow resist = 20%, same as the Winter's Gift IO. (If I'm remembering it right.)
Increase Recovery - 17%. No, you wont' replace Stamina, but again - early on, why not? It's better (again, if I'm recalling correctly) than either of the two big +Recov IOs (individually... believe one's 15%, one's 10%.)
Resistances tend to be either 5% or 17.5%.
