HW/Weihrauch 24 on the roll

[crowski]

A few weeks ago SpiralGroove did a post on his gun rack. I expressed I may have to convert my racks to vertical storage. Beertheif mentioned a rack with wheels. Don’t know if being serious or sarcastic, it set off a fire storm.
I had a hockey stick rack that was in my store and I converted it to hold ply wood. Eventually it made its way to the scrap pile, was going this spring. I pulled it out of a pile all bent out of shape.

The tubes filled with water froze and turned square pipe, round.

After a day of thawing I cut it down to 56 inches.
Now I not going for Better Homes and Gardens award. No paint or stain. I found some Watco, could have used for shoe polish. I’m looking for stability, compact and generous storage.

My shop is a total write off. Don’t like working under these conditions. I was able to make a jig for the holes. The dowels are 1/2 in. I actually had to go buy.

Finally finished, No beauty Queen.

Now to avoid a heart attack and drag it to the house.
‘After a wipe down I had to reassemble it. HW 30’s on top and HW80’s below

I‘m really happy with the sturdiness. I can spin the cart with no fear of rifles falling. You can see the angle of the pegs.

On the other sides 50’s on top and 90’s below

One 50 on floor waiting for delivery of a Ricord coming from the other side of the pond.
This is absolutely the answer to my problem. Equivalent to 10 ft. of wall.
‘Thanks Beertheif

[Lead Slinger]

Thanks. The FWB’s are special. Wish I had a few more. Crow

Thanks. I don’t think I’ll run out soon. Crow

Thanks Brett. I could use it to hold up a hammock, it’s so rigid. Worked out well. Looking at it earlier I think I can stash some pistols on the ends. Crow

 

[imtrigerhapy]

You could always put about 5 or 6 on the inside bottom just angle the dowels more

Nice job! What kind of wood did you use?
You could make a pull out rack in the bottom for some pistols or a few more rifles. Awesome springer collection and storage to boot.

It’s red Oak. I cut down the trees and milled the lumber off my property. A long long time ago.
I’ll use that space somehow. Crow

I thought it was, looks real classy.

Nice job Crow. Looks great. It’s a lot to wrong at once however. Owning a several furniture stores, makes me take great caution with things on wheels.

Thanks. A lot of the wood is still ruff cut. Didn’t go through the jointer or planer. Just sanded off the burrs. Oak gives nasty slivers. Crow

Thanks. Trust me, as I was building, my mind was sceptical. I was certainly concerned about tipping or wobbling, especially when over 7 ft high. Also the original frame was bent and only touched with 3 wheels, it was so cockeyed, never did get the spring out. But the weight held it down.
I made the dowels 4 inches to allow movement and give a little security.
‘Because it’s all angled to fall back in the center, when I move it, it just seems to tighten. I‘m impressed with the rigidity. No wobble.
‘This was way easier than moving a wall. My boarding, taping and muddying, drywalling days are over. Crow

Well done Crow, but you must be single, or you make sure to buy your significant other plenty of shoes?

I noticed that you disappeared, and I said to myself, "Yup, Crowski is building a gun rack"
It came out great!
If I'm not mistaken beerthief has a roller with vertical racks, and that was what I thought you were going to go for, so I was surprised to see a horizontal roller.

 

[.20calguy]

That's an awesome collection. I can only imagine your pellet stash!

He had to build a cabinet for the pellets, and another for the scope boxes. Lol
