Default Decided to start hanging my RCs on the wall

This is the first of 3 wall racks I have built to put my multiple RC Cars and Trucks hanging on the wall. Saw something about a week ago and decided to go for it

Pretty simple to build ran out to Home Depot and bought 2 1 x 6 x 6 Boards, Six 4 foot 1/2 inch Dowel Rods, Gorilla Glue, and 50 pound hangers to put my RCs off the shelves than onto the walls. Like many of us with over 10 Remote COntrol Cars and Trucks we start to run out of bench and shelves to hold them all. Thought I would share.

Cut the 6 foot boards down into 2 foot lengths and drilled out holes for 9 inch long dowel rods and glued them in place using Gorilla Glue.

Will add to this post a few more times as the other Wall Mounts are built

Few more hung on the wall still have 2 more Wall Racks to build to fit them all. In the end I will fill the entire wall with just my Trucks and Cars

On my Heavier Trucks I used extra support and only hung 2 to a Wall Mount.

Nice display! I've been thinking about doing that, too. My shelves are packed with the 16 kits I have now. Problem is, I don't really have wall space, either......

Thanks it is going to take up the entire wall because I still have 4 more R/Cs to build racks for. Still trying to figure out the best way hang the TMaxx because of the way the frame is shaped
