Aesthetic racks

[Rickyjuggler]

Hi, this is my first post and I would like to show you how I built my racks.

Fisrt you need some tools:
*Nut (More than many)
*Washer (More than many)
*Aluminum tube
*A drill
*Long screws
*Abrasive file
*Hacksaw
*Boards melamine
*Tape measure



After you get this gear.
Put double nut in each long screw and one washer. This is gonna be the base.



You need to drill all the boards with the same measures (4 holes by each one). Later put the long screws.





Cut the tube as the height of the tuppers. (I cut every 14 cm - 5 1/2 " )
And use the abrasive file in the edge tube. Try not to cut your fingers



This is gonna be the step that is repeated many times....
Board > Washer > Nut > Tube > Washer > Board > Washer > Nut...... and again and again.







When the long screws are in the end. You have to put a different nut. This one needs to be longer. Like the photo. And put a new long screw in each big nut.



Ater this... you can do the same: Board > Washer > Nut > Tube > Washer > Board

And then... is finished!


Don't forget to adjust very well the nuts on the screws.
Now it´s time to put the babys in the new house.





One photo of the tupper on the top with my carpet eating...



I hope to be helpful.
If you have any question I'll try to answer.
Sorry if my english isn´t good, but I'm learning

Good Looking rack and good idea...

Very original design, I like it. Looks nice and simple, but time consuming to cut and file down all of the aluminum tubes haha.

That is very nice! I'll have to keep this design in mind for sure.

Nice rack but IMO melamine looks cleaner and "more asthetically pleasing." Also have to wonder about the sturdiness of the rack, being held together with thin long screws... there has to be some wobble to it.

Kind of looks like a Retro snake rack. Good build though.

Wow! Very good looking rack!

I agree, but kudos to anyone for building any rack: not something I have the ablilities to do!
