ok...I decided to build my own rack system a few months ago and started work on it. I work a lot of hours and am not a master carpenter so there were set backs and economic restraints...but I finally finished it today!!! I know there is a big gap above the top left hand rubbermaid...but I will just stick something under it. If you are not into building things...and just want to do it to save money, DON'T!! It is a major hassel when you are learnig...but I enjoy it...so it is worth it!

CB...you are right...he does do a really good joh. Eventually I will be taking these down and replacing them. For know though, it will work. I still have to put the back on it, b/c of some last second troubles, but that really should not be a problem.
This little exercise really taught me some patience.
Thanks for the kind words you guys.

Neat little rack...from looking at the picture, it doesn't look like it would be much trouble to pull the screws out of the left side top and drop that shelf half an inch. Leave the rubbermaid in there and drop till it's flush and screw it back in. I gotta build one sooner or later for temp housing babies.
Oh!! This is really important. When you bundle up a bunch of electrical wires and roll them up and duct tape them together, You have just created something very similar to a coil. It will eventually overheat and catch something on fire.

see what kind of electrical genius I am?! LOL [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]
I went and cut the tape off those cords as soon as I read that. I think that is the last thing I want!
Thanks for the advice Brett!
