Pledge: Vertical Wood Rack

The proposed wood rack

The proposed location for the rack

Pledge opened: Sunday 30th March

Pledge leader: [Felix]

Introduction

The wood pile in the basement workshop seems to have a life of its own. It takes up a lot of room, and there are no proper guidelines to what should or should not go into the pile.

The idea is to install a wood rack, which makes better use of the space (ie use more of the vertical space) and keeps the wood more organised.

Budget estimation

We will need to get various bits of wood, some brackets, screws and rawl-plugs. All this will come to around £200.

Dimensions	Lengths	Price (per length)	Qty Rqd.	Total
2"x6"	3.6m	£9.85	11	£108.37
2"x4"	3m	£5.51	6	£33.05
2"x2"	3.6m	£3.34	2	£6.67

Specification

Will has put together a SketchUp model of our proposal using 6"x2" sawn timber for the uprights and 4"x2" timber for the arms, based on my earlier very rough design for the proposed location (i.e. where the woodpile is now, but with a smaller footprint). See the PL(A)YWOOD forum for further discussion.
