Here would be mine. I built them and they are suspended from the ceiling on one end with some small chain. The other end is held up with rope that allows me to lower the one end to remove my wings as needed. It works real well for me. Good Luck, Dave

david.. i like that.. A LOT. I went with dowels perpendiuclar to a wall stud type setup but being up out of the way is much better.. and swinging down to remove what you need is a great idea.

I really like the way it works out as well. One of my ideas that actually works like I wanted it to. A rare feat indeed. Simply to build and not to expensive. I got everything at the Home Depot and it took a couple of hours to build and mount both of them. Really helped me out with my storage issue's. Hope it will work for you as well, Dave

Great designs are universal
Your rack looks a lot like mine. I have mine hinged to a wall with a gate latch holding the other end to the ceiling. Works great.

Nice rack and nice workmanship building it. However, you better tap that hinge pin back into the hinge before the entire thing is hanging down.

Good eye Bayward. Not to worry, hammered that puppy home long ago. Thanks for the kind observations.

Another nice rack. Simple to build and relatively cheap.
