Here's a photo, I made this one out of cheap ply wood to see how it came out i will be making another out of nice hardwood next R&R. The spacing on the one in the photo is a little large but it fits 6 boards and look kinda cool in the board room...

Would be happy to knock a few up and sell for a fraction of the cost of some other ive seen online.

Thanks, just not sure if it would hold the boards as good, and it would be a bit less economical to cut out a sheet..

Hey All,

Racks are looking great!

We have some really great news too, we are near the end of our first batch and am looking to run-out remaining units so we can get another order underway.

We have some of our Cactus racks on sale until the 17th of April or until stocks run out.

Enjoy!

This how I keep mine atm.




I use blocks of foam about 6" thick by 8" wide by 2' long and the fit between the boards.

Its ok when you are not using them but its a pain when ya want the one at the back
