Everyone will be lost. There will be no Peace, Harmony, Enlightenment and Balance in this world. That will set it up for disaster in 2012. But we'll still have beauty, so not all is lost.

HA! I built a rack about 10 years ago when i was working at my aunts shop, I made it all wrong, this would have been a much better setup.
my setup involved plywood sticking out perpenducular to the floor, and instead of cutting out the grooves, I hammered in 2x4's to rest the metal bars on.
horrible failure. I'll build my next rack at home like this! thanks guys!

no i never did
but i do want to add a bar (not that kind of bar) under the bottom roll over the workbench... maybe thin metal through a hard plastic tube... to act as a roller. i mask and laminate small stuff right there been meaning to do that for a while now.

jiarby, are you giving everyone permission to use your eps design for your vinyl storage rack?
If so, I would like to use it, I'm going to modify it a little, I have been sketching a double sided version ever since last July when GG posted her weekend project.
My goal is to make my rack out of one sheet of 3/4" thick furniture grade birch plywood and put four 3" locking casters on the bottom. Just wanted to get your OK to proceed. If not, I can just redraw very similar slots in my end panels.

Nope, I'm just making my own design, goal one sheet 3/4' plywood, 4 Harbor Freight casters, 7 pieces of 1-1/4" gray sch 80 PVC pipe 10' long, cut in half to make 14 rods.
Just about got all the details drawn up.

I was not able to use your design, two things, I'm using 1-1/4" gray sch 80 PVC pipe for my rods, so my slots are going to be 1-1/2" dia, yours were 2", and my rack is sloping at 86°, not 90° like yours, so I didn't use yours, started from scratch making my own CAD drawing.
Thanks anyway.
