Ah found it - I think that's bloody great!! Very nice! You absolutely should be proud of it too!Not in the league of the fine achievements I see every time I visit this thread but nevertheless I finally got around to making the 1st of 2 or 3 cd storage units. All because I have them on a shelf in my small workshop along with 100,s of vinyl albums and singles taking up valuable space .It was a case of using what I had so not perfect . I did however enjoy the whole process from design to construction so here it is …
I made a few mistakes I’m sure you will spot but overall I’m pleased with it.
A tip for coat racks is to hide the fixing screws under the hooks.Sometimes I end up making things that I don't consider to be overly exciting but needs to be done...

Coatrack for the utility room
Then I needed to move the clamps from the wall as I needed the wall space for something else, plus there wasn't room for the other clamps I want to get so I decided to make a mobile clamp stand, it's not the best looking bit of woodworking in the world but it works and it only sits in the workshop...

Thanks - i, m planning a 2nd but unfortunately a recent worn out clutch has left me £700 lighter so it will likely be a little later this year . lots of examples of the members work here and like I said it’s from an across the board of skills and abilities.Ah found it - I think that's bloody great!! Very nice! You absolutely should be proud of it too!
Nice work, I bought a bunch of those covid systainers as well, some of my original ones are getting knackered and I need to get organized. I like your rack design, its nicer than the normal plywood slabs.I’m in the process of swapping vans & as it’s a completely different make I need to make new racking, I’d seen a thread about cheap medical systainers & found someone local selling them for £10 each which I figured was a bargain & ideal to base the new racking around.
The systainers are quite tall so I decided to make ply boxes to fit inside so I could easier access the gear at the bottom of the box, a mate cnc’d me the base of the boxes from a program someone posted on hear, after that it was just a case of cutting the sides to size & running some grooves in the bases.

I made 12 two for each systainer simply glued & pinned together

They fit nice & snuggly, I’ve added a simple dowel handle to lift the top box out.

The systainers are going to sit above the rear wheel arches so I made a start on a unit to hold them.

I’m trying to keep the weight down as much as possible so it’s made from 60x24mm redwood & ply, this is as far as I’ve got up to present

There’s more to do to get it finished but I think this will work well & eventually hold 4 systainers
