Title: Drying Rack
Post by: mimosatexas on September 26, 2014, 12:16:29 PM
O also, I had a spare 48" metal wire rack sitting in the back of my shop waiting for a purpose (picked it up for $20 at an estate sale a few weeks ago, little rust on the bottom shelf) so I just built one of these drying racks.  Took $25 of pvc, some bolts and zip ties I had laying around, and about 30 minutes this morning.  Holds 18 screens vertically.  Here's a few crappy pics, ignore the clutter and random doors and drywall from my screen room build out :D

Classy looking piece of equipment, you officially get to join the tighta$$ fraternity.

 I like the furnace filters on top, now put both fans on a single power strip so when you turn one switch both shut off.

Filters on all my fans are a must.  My shop is dusty no matter what I do, old building and all :/  Already on a power strip :D

I was just thinking about how to keep the floor dry.  Can you take a photo or link to what you're using eb?

Something like this:

Rubbermaid under bed thing (http://www.globalindustrial.com/product/itemKey/30982889?infoParam.campaignId=T9F&gclid=Cj0KEQjwnZShBRDfxqzr55rcyMEBEiQA1iRNPxFDJvwBNReBNrWLk2fpfP746R7M9fI9hlQPIUqBV0QaAgtp8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds)

But longer.

Honestly, I don't know how much it helps. The floor is still pretty wet.
