Here's what I did:

I made it from scrap, but not like the "scrap" most people mean when they say scrap. I mean stuff that was otherwise unusable, and about to be burned or thrown out. Random bits of poplar, torn plywood, saw kerf tests, etc. TRUE scrap :)

I wanted to try it and see how the dimensions worked out. I think I'll rebuild it out of nice wood with plane storage, and some other random storage someday, but this works for me, and took me all of 20 minutes to build. Glued and screwed...nothing fancy :D

Actually, it almost resembles a paper towel rack. May not be a bad, cheap, premade source for saw storage racks if you can find one that's dimensioned properly.

Nice driveby there, with that matched set of LV saws.

Simple and quick is good - it's shop furniture, after all. It's a lot more usable than MY saw till .

HA! That stealth gloat was so good, *I* didn't even notice it :)

Nice saw till John.

And a timely post, as I recently acquired a couple saws and am facing a "where to I put these things" situation.

So there may be a clone of your rack on a wall near me sometime soon!
