Anyone interested in custom racks/storage?

What do you need string? I do the 6 board leaner on occasion, but mostly I hammer out the production 5 board rack. If you want something special, let me know.

I'm looking for a leaning rack actually.

Let me rephrase that, if I don't get a leaning rack soon my wife is going to kill me.

I never heard anything from him. Maybe he's locked into selling through Stoked.

I finally made two of my own. The 20 board, double sided rolling rack. Then made a single sided 10 board rack and put furniture sliders under it.

Square, skillsaw, drill with one bit and a cross tip, pen, pencil, some screws and wood. With nothing but visuals from other racks shown in the fish, an afternoon (each) and you can make your own. Go for it.

**Camel** · 07-10-2009 08:54 AM

Is this the kind you want?

70 plus shipping. I can make it by Wednesday.

Not locked into Stoked. Was on vacation for a bit and had a broken shoulder for a while. Sorry if I missed you 8ftbed. Glad you had fun making your own.

Whatever you need String, let me know. chaddhall<@>gmail is easiest to get me.

I followed the GFH add to look at those wheels they're advertising. Snooping around their site, here's a 10 board standing rack for $80

GFH BOARDS | 10 Board Skateboard Rack

That's a good find. Gravity had one too, but it said sold out on the website for months. That is why I made my first one. Since then, I think that I have made around 30-40 of these things (the 5 board ones). I have made 2 or three of the big ones, but those aren't the norm. I wanted to keep the smaller ones as cheap as I could without screwing myself over.

There are lots of cool/weird ones out there:

Skateboard Racks
Steel Skateboard Racks That Will Hold Three Skateboards
Sk

logy Single Skateboard Deck Display Kit (W/Drill Bit) at 360Skate
http://www.silverfishlongboarding.co...ard-racks.html
RAX 4x4 Skateboard Display and Storage Rack: CozyWinters
Board Rack
GRAVITY SKATEBOARDS | ACCESSORIES - 6 Board Rack

So there are interesting alternatives. But mine is made with care by a fellow skater and silverfisher.

+1 and with your foot tapping gravity experience, we're both proof that necessity is the mother of invention.

Had a certain humped nomad not been out on a walkabout, I'd personally have dromedary droppings piled in my garage and guest room.

Couldn't find my patience pills though and needed to protect my investments, so I took your lead and whittled my own.

LOL, that's awesome man. Your literary prowess is quite potent!

**GFHBoarder** · 07-10-2009 02:38 PM

For the money the GFH racks really are a great deal. There is a lot that ends up going into making a rack and with the finish work they are a pain. The GFH Boards racks come lacquered where many others do not.

**8ftbed** · 07-10-2009 03:03 PM

off topic slightly but will serve to keep this bumped up and maybe generate business for Camel...

GFHBoarder... are you riding their wheels? How about the Chubbies, have you tried them yet?

**Camel** · 07-12-2009 08:40 AM

I agree with GFH on the finish work. It's a pain. I did that for a while but it raised the price. I just do a finish sanding and some wood putty. That leaves it ready for paint by the end user. It keeps it cheap enough for college students which is my general market looking at most of the orders. I finally built one of my production racks for myself, I had the original prototype on the wall forever. I mounted the new one below it. Now I can rack 10 boards. Keeps the garage nice and neat. With the added plus of 2 shelves for stray parts, wheels, pads, etc...

**Lit** · 07-12-2009 09:02 AM

hey Camel, the board with the flys. what is that?

**Camel** · 07-12-2009 09:20 AM

That's an '07 Landy Chinook.

**mace the bass** · 07-12-2009 09:25 AM

did you chop up a dervish and but gbombs on it? and the racks look great. i would be very tempted if i had enough to fill one up.

**Camel** · 07-12-2009 11:23 AM

Why yes I did. It was a cracked Dervish, so no foul.

**Pleinair** · 08-30-2009 11:05 AM

Will be buying a rack in the near future!

**Camel** · 08-30-2009 07:11 PM

Awesome. Custom or regular?

hey are you still making racks? interested in the 6 board leaner

and was also wondering if the leaner has the possibility to fit a snowboard(either with or without bindings) i think you said a friend had a snowboard on his wall mount and since with the leaner since you dont have worry about it weighing down on the wall it mite be able to support more than one snowboard

props on the craftsmanship

My problem is this. i am building boards. i am going to move out of my parents house back to texas to college, in a friends house back there. i need a 5 board rack now, but i will need a larger rack while back there. is thee any way i can get a say, 7-10 board rack for back there when the times comes. i don't know it i need it to be a wall, or a floor yet. i need to talk to my friend. i just want to make sure that my eccentricities don't take up too much space.

right now my quiver is this

50" dancer
40" Cindirch 3P
soon to have a Deeznutz
36" single kick
37" beater board (soon to remake now that i have enjoyed the shape)

but there are so many board ideas in my head, and CAD'ed in my computer. i just need to start doing some more building.

just shoot me a PM so we can get the ball rolling. thanks
