Thanks Ken, what a very clever design.
When you first posted it and I looked at the pic I though ..... mmm nice, then I read 1-1/2 x 1-1/2" x 1/8" angle iron , only 1/8" thick seems at bit thin to me.
However after spending a bit (a lot actually) of time looking and examining it - it's fabrication and the use of the angle iron in conjunction with the metal shelves it comes over as a truly brilliant design.
It's design is simple, very simple to the point of looking a little crude and it is precisely that why I think the design is brilliant.
Another point about the design is most of it could be bolted together and it will be just as strong as if it was welded.
Thanks Darren for your pics as well, if someone (besides me) wishes to build one your pics help a lot.
