Name: jeff... City: Stovall State: NC County: Granville Join Date: Mar 2006 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 6.77 over 30 days | I need to design a pen blank storage / drying rack - with storage for filled flat rate envelopes. I'd kinda like it to be about 7' tall with slide out drawers for storage of various species of blanks that have not yet been packed in envelopes. This will not be a furniture project but more of a plywood thingy.
Can you guys point me at some simple plans.
Thanks

The wire shelving would be light weight, and allow good air flow to help dry or keep the blanks dry and straight. Those "drawer" assemblies could go into a simple plywood carcass with dadoes to accept the tongues on the "drawer" sides. Put everything on some small casters and you're all set.
My $.02, Dave

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

Best I can remember the price was less than $20. It is on casters and the sides have an angle about every inch and a half. Trays rests on angles. It would be easy to make needed trays. |
