I threw this stock rack together because i needed something. I realized right away that it sucked trying to get a particular bar out of a stack of bars....it just didn't work well and there is more wasted space than stock. Filled up it would be impossible to work with.
Today i decided it had to change. Most of my stock is under 6 ft. Much of it is around 2 ft. With this new vertical storage I can practically utilize 70% of the vertical area for actual storage. Longer stuff toward the back. I can practically expect to fit 8 ft long stuff vertically
Once finished the entire first section will be divided for vertical storage and I'm planning on doubling the shelves on the shelf section.
With this storage I can mark the barstock on the end and pull it out pretty easily. The few six foot pieces I have will be less convenient so i may remove or modify the top layer if needed.
I will be able to see and retrieve stuff I didn't even know i had.
