  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Pipe Racks

Ok so I went to pack a couple boxes but everything was in the way. ( ie pipes and pipe stuff. ) Decided I needed to do something about it. So I built two pipe racks out of oak dowels.

One thing I don't like about pipe racks is they are spaced too close together. And don't slant far enough back. I always knock pipes over reaching for one.

So I designed my own. Each holds 11 pipes.



But I still don't have enough room.

Nice racks, BTW.
Still trying to figure out which way I want to go there...
Overall, are you pleased with the results?
(our has this just become "version 1"?)
Yes i am very pleased. just not sure what to do next. i haven't glued them up yet. make sure i don't need to alter them. think I'm going with clear finish.

Holy pipe porn batman! Mad respect for someone who sees a problem, and instead of looking for and buying a solution, makes his own solution. Nice work, very cool.
