So,
I was getting VERY tired :frown: of having ot move all of my fishing rods around as I was re-organizing the garage/shop..
I decided ot get them out of the way.
A friend owns a Window-Shade manufacturing business in Dallas and their stock is Rahador (sp) Pine from South America that is laminated and finger-jointed into 2-1/4" x 7/8" boards.
He gave me a bunch of scrap and I biscuit jointed two pieces together to make 1 4-1/2" board. I drilled the holes 1-3/4" and cut the slots on my scroll saw.
My fishing buddy neighbors saw them and just had to have some too...
I decided to make them better than the first set, so I glued, planed, jointed and actually took measurements this time. No free-handing... I used 1-1/4" R.O. bit to soften all the edges too.
They were a big hit and I made two sets for one neighbor and one set fo the other.
They are 26" long with 6 holes @ 4" on center. They will hold up to 12 rods in the holes and you can add two more on the ends with Eye-Hooks....
