Ok so I was sick of not having a rack at my shop, so today I decided to build one, I dont know if this will help anyone but... here goes.

I went to Home depot and bought

(3) 10 ft sections of 1/2 conduit. 2 dollars a piece.

(10) right angle hangers like what you would use in a closet 3 bux/ea

(1) box of #10-12 x 1-1/4" ribbed plastic anchors 5 bux

measured it up on the wall, drilled the holes, put in the anchors and screwed in the brackets. took me an hour(that I have cause I had a cancellation :[ )

Not a finished picture I took it while I was still doing it, and I still need to shorten the conduit a bit, but it is the basic idea.

Those look nice.I have something very similiar.

Do yourself a little favor and drills holes in the pipe and holder and slip a bolt in there.

You will be pulling one day and an end will slip out.

Nice job though :rollin

ya I was thinking about what I am going to do about that, I think screws or bolts would be a PITA everytime I have to switch the rolls or pull them off, so I was really thinking about welding something on the end to still allow the tint rolls to slip over, but stop the conduit from falling off.

and..

what is all this talk about dust? is the dust going to settle on the hangers? or on the film. I am not too worried about dust on the film itself the top layer will be getting used just about everyday. the wind, however, is another issue, but my shop only has one entrance and it is generally very calm inside.

Thanks for the words

finished
