Upper half.

I've given you a clue - it is not on Ken's or Darren's rack. Therefore is must be something to do with the part that I added to the back.
Something to do with how the rack holds the metal.

Plus I said I can change it quite easily. One operation say four times.
Some times errors like this are politely called "built in redundancy"

The very top back does not have the horizontal dividers sticking back to support the stock from falling out the side?

If I show the corrected drawing you will just compare and say "ah those bit(s)"

Considering you don't have a rack that is pretty damn good - it's wrong but still you are on the right track.
The initial design for me was that it should be capable of supporting 3 meter lengths but only on one side. The other side will only support  lengths up to 1.8 meters, so I don't need the top support on the back.
Yikes you are close.

I even did this with a 1.8 meter long piece of metal in the rack and I still didn't see it.
