Just couldn't deal with mess any longer and once one of the 50wides went over the other night and took out everything in the room,it was time for a change like our Gub-ment. This is what it looked like before.
![]() So after copying an idea from a friend,the R&D department went to work. Now I know what some af yall are thinking,Bonita Dan just go to the store and buy one of those rod racks for a hundred bucks,I don't think so,Homey don't play that! The R&D guys worked tirelessly for days coming up with the design with the help of a long time friend "BEER". Somewhere in the neighborhood of of 6 or 7 cases of the stuff. So after a trip or 2 to one of the local large chain hardware stores for supplies,mostly sch.40-1 1/2" pvc pipe,some caps and a box or screws and then another trip to a friends scrap wood pile the build team went to work.Oh yea,cant forget the liquor store. Heres what they came up with. ![]() Purdy aint she! Thats old world craftmanship from the guys at Redneck Rodholder Inc. And heres the end result. ![]() No more mess! Total cost for the build has not been estimated yet but we'll just say $30 bucks for raw materials, gas traveling between the store and the factory $20 bucks and another $200+ for the Beer to make it all possible. Ha,really stuck it to the man this time!

One question to ponder.
How do you get 8ft rods IN & Out of it when you only have a 8ft ceiling? |

With allthe beer, the R&D dept had an epiphany to cut slots in the cieling to fit the rod tips.
Nice job. It cleaned up well.

I just finsihed cleaning my garage, and have the same problem with poles. However, I want something that mounts on the wall and puts the poles in a single row. I was at Pinksnappers house and had what I want, just can not remeber what it is I want. I forgot what it looked like and how he built it. So - if anyone has a photo of thier pole holder mounted on a wall, which will reveal how I could make mine. I would appreciate it.

BT,
Easiest way I found -- and what I use -- is simple eye hooks bolted into the studs in the wall. It hangs them horizontally with fairly even weight distribution. |
