That looks really nice! Sucks how much that PVC costs though. I wonder if their is a way to come up on scrap pieces from a sign shop that they would sell at a discount. Worth a shot...

I guess, but if you compare it to the cost of a plastic rack from a quality manufacturer, it's pretty cost efficient.

Definately beats forking the dough for a commercial rack... I really like the idea of sourcing the PVC... I just thought, working in manufacturing, with material like that...often times companies end up with odd ends that cannot be used for product, and most places like this have a "scrap bin", Now whether they will have pieces around the needed size is another question.... Just thought that it may another possiblity to save some dough.

It defiantely looks cleaner than the typical melamine Rack.. Thanks again for sharing.

Jamie- I've known you for quite some time now. I've seen you work with wood and wire materials. Not so nice.

You, my friend, have found your calling!
PVC is your gift!
That is awesome. I am so impressed with the craftsmanship.
I cannot wait to see it (full of all your new bad A$$ morphs)

and tell that Wysocki fella that he has to get in line behind me for your rack building...I got dibs on a 16 hole shoebox rack...

Hahaha..Now that is funny!

Charlie, I've known you for a while as well. You are a good friend and if necessary a large scary man to act as my bodyguard. I've seen you work with wood and wire as well. Sometimes not so good (tubs mysteriously falling out!?).

Thank you for the kind words and knowing that I have a gift has made my life worth living again! I can't help you with a 16 hole shoebox rack, but how about a 20 slot one??

See you this weekend mon fraire.
