carwash 47 Posted March 8, 2014 Use what you got i guess. I had 4 sticks of 1.5x2.0" .120 wall tubing in the shop.... and I'm tired of taking vinyl in and out of boxes and wanted the shelf space back... so I made this... 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kauffman21 32 Posted March 8, 2014 Yeah.... We need one or two of those! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mabscotthandyman 1,410 Posted March 8, 2014 You could hang your vinyl, cutter, truck etc on that lol nice work. What is that 1x1.25 tubing 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaybyrd 3,770 Posted March 8, 2014 Can we say overkill??? SWEET! Better than any cheap China crap you'd normally buy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dawn's Design 403 Posted March 8, 2014 It looks like it works good. But what does it weigh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaybyrd 3,770 Posted March 8, 2014 You could hang your vinyl, cutter, truck etc on that lol nice work. What is that 1x1.25 tubing I was wodering about the weight myself. May end up with some heady duty casters if you end up moving it a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
security802 686 Posted March 8, 2014 Nice Rack, I am trying to figure out what to buy/build for my vinyl. All these give me ideas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joker 618 Posted March 8, 2014 Me i would throw that thing on some casters so you could roll it around Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dwp99 283 Posted March 8, 2014 Very nice and I agree with adding casters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheKid 29 Posted March 11, 2014 I told my wife when I first met her the same thing. "nice rack" 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
louis clarke ii 202 Posted March 11, 2014 Nicely done. (End caps and powder coating) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carwash 47 Posted March 11, 2014 Probably weighs about 200#. No endcaps, no powdercoating, no casters. Was supposed to be quick and dirty and cheap. Built from steel i had left over from a fab job... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheKid 29 Posted March 12, 2014 Probably weighs about 200#. No endcaps, no powdercoating, no casters. Was supposed to be quick and dirty and cheap. Built from steel i had left over from a fab job... I would rattle can paint it though just to keep things clean around my vinyl. Nice work. Good use of leftover material. Tig welds? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carwash 47 Posted March 13, 2014 Dint feel like painting it... It's clean metal tho. Scotch brited and wiped down. Mig welded this. Faster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice&dice 2,451 Posted March 13, 2014 Value at $250. (sold by sign supply companies such as Grimco) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carwash 47 Posted March 13, 2014 That rack was my inspiration. I have more time and scrap than money. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sloozy8 1 Posted March 20, 2014 Very stout. But I'm sure it's heavy as all get out. Next time I go to the metal salvage yard-I'll have to eyeball some of the scrap laying around. It can still be pretty expensive. But it looks great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carwash 47 Posted March 20, 2014 Yeah, it would be cheaper to buy a rack if you had to go buy the materials to make my rack. Like i said, a customer had already paid for this stock, so it was a freebie... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
