My metal storage rack I built

Used what I had I got for cheap. 1/4 thick 10in x 2.5in channel. Then 4in for the arms . Also 1.5in square tube for connecting the 2 together. she is a tank but rock solid for sure .

And shout out to my buddy jim with the old dodge helping move and stack it all up .

Only site that loads my pics funny .

Re: My metal storage rack I built

I need to build something like that. How do you plan to protect the steel from the weather?

Re: My metal storage rack I built

I have a lot of steel protected the same way...

I'd like to figure out a way to have to grind less rust in the future. I'm thinking about building a rack like yours and just putting attachment hooks for a tarp at the top.
