Default Built A Storage Rack Today

Ok, so I have been looking at buying a wall rack for my detachable TP, but just didn't want to spend the coin. One of the members here sent me a detailed set of directions and man were they nice, however they were just more than I wanted. So, a buddy of mine builds grass rig fire trucks and monster trucks. I went to see him and this is what we came up with. Just simple and to the point, exactly what I wanted. Oh yeah I got less than $35 into it with paint, lags and lunch. Bryan

Who got you the instructions?
Looks like a project I'd be wanting to try out.

Made mine too.....nothing fancy but it serves the purpose. This is the prototype. Plan to make one out of all hardwoods. Made it out of dumpster wood from the condos they're building across the street. Going to make a few with various paint schemes and maybe sell them.

I don't have instructions for this one. We just built it to fit. Bryan

Well between here and rg.org I can sell about 10 so far. I can ask him but not sure he is wanting to do to many of these. $100/ea may entice him though. The $35 is because I helped him and I got the buddy deal. Bryan
