check out this rack

 

 

I saw a thread recently on building racks - here's what I've been doing:  I like building with wood rather than PVC, but the PVC is perfect for keeping boards safe and ding free.  I take the plastic pipe and cut it longways on my bandsaw, then I pop it onto 2 X 3 fir, and build from there.  You can attach the wood to existing shelf brackets, or like in one of the photos, I built up a free standing rack for my kayaks.  A tip for cutting the pipe: set up the fence on the saw, then follow the writing thats printed on the pipe as it is usually perfectly straight.

guess where I got the idea for cutting the PVC and squishing it onto the wood??????

 





Good idea.

thanks spuddups - now if I can only figure out how to upload pics better on my Mac - I think I.m making them too big maybe…

I’d say you got picture dimensions just right.  Large enough to see some detail.

Nice idea for racks.  Perfect for polyethylene kayaks.
