Will hold 64 clamps and I can add another leaf to it for another 32 when I need to. Pretty simple to make, just took time to cut the slots.  |

Just kidding, where do you live? .gif) Seriously, a clamp rack is on my to-do list. Think I'll make a rolling one though. I've seen a couple of neat ones in other posts. I don't have much open wall space and I'm lazy, roll the clamps to where I'm working. |

I used some leftover plywood. To mill the slots, I clamped all 4 pieces together, Marked the slots and plowed them out on the table saw. Simple but time consuming. |

At least you were smart enough to clamp all 4 pieces together, and cut them in one pass. I probably would have done all 4 individually....

It's a double door and that was the inactive panel. |
