Default T-Top Rack

a long time ago someone posted a pick of a home made T-Top Rack the was mounted on a wall and had a couple eye screws that had a dal rod (spell) holding the t tops on, the tpo themselves were resting on a pice of wood and held to the wall by the rod

if ne one can find the thread or IS the person who made it, could u please post the pick or the link or the thread with the pic on it

thx

Miles

This is a great (and simple) solution.
Make sure you use screw anchors or screw into the studs.

I use hooks that I got at Home Depot for 4.99 each. One hook is more than strong enough to hold a single top .. and I stretch a bungee cord across the top area of the tee top.

I'm the guy that made this thing. What doesn't show is the angle brackets screwed into studs from the underside. Cheap and easy to do with left over stuff. The eye hooks go into studs as well and the wall carpet was glued to a 1/4" piece of plywood then attached to the wall.
