As always it’s not very exciting,but I thought I’d throw it out there and maybe figure out how to post pics again .
I find my bumper plate storage racks are not very refined looking . The concept was great ,but they look a little cheesy on the top and bottom . Probably because I just used a 2/4 .
I had another idea in mind , as I wanted to be able to adjust the height , so I used 1/2” think iron welded to a piece of 2x3x1/4 angle iron .
To make it look better , I routed out the 2/6 vertical sections on the top and bottom in order for the angle iron to sit flush .
Then as I suspected, angle iron is not square on the inside corner, so I had to use a round off bit to remove a anall amount of material.
2nd pic is the old version . (I still cannot remember how David explained how to have text between pics )
First pic is the new one with machine feet . I haven’t tapped a hole since grade 10 , and back then it was in aluminum
