Lumber Rack pics in ABPW

Folks -

I've posted pics of progress and this duplicate text over in ABPW....

Well, school let out about a week ago, so I've got some time back in the
sho...covered patio! Rose and I put up insulation over Memorial Day wknd,
and I built a rack for all the lumber that was stashed in the garage and
along the walls of the shop.

I lag bolted 2x4 verticals to the studs of the formerly exterior wall of the
garage, and then built an "a-fram/lean-to" type of an arrangement to
transfer the weight to the slab. I've angled the shelves back about 10
degrees and ran 2 - 20 circuits along the underside of the lower shelf for
power. A dust collection duct and gates will fit between the "a-frame" and
the garage wall, and I may cut a pocket and install a header in the garage
wall so that I can save some floor space for the 12 Bosch chopsaw swing...
To the left of the chopsaw is the router table; to the right a small RAS
will be set up, All of the tabletops will be at the same height when it's
all done.

More to come!
