nice sides. Did you put a wood frame across the back window too? Save the windows and also use as a "headache rack" for those extra long pipes and such
Take a guard off of the back of a refrig. and use it as the "headache rack.Quote:

With your design only the screws/nails keep that board (and heavy item) from pushing the boards off the 2X upright
I can pull them out and turn them the other way, didnt think about that.Quote:

not bad should help you haul quite abit more
Either stain them or paint them white then add your scrapping logo, phone # to the top board.
Are the posts just in the bed rail holes?Quote:

John, thats what I figured, just move them over. It does make sense and I didn't screw the main rails in, just used some wedging to tighten it all up.
Focker, they came in handy tonight - I was able to stack 18 stackable chairs behind the window when I'd never be able to do that before! I wont have to offload so quickly now!!
Mechanic, I thought about that too! At first I wanted to put, ''Yeah, I'm a badass scrapper now!'' LOL!!!
I'm also thinking about how I could fashion a removable board across the two top rails with a winch attached to it for when I'm alone and come across something too heavy to manually lift myself.
But, best of all, they were free! Brand new boards I picked up scrapping - they still have the tags on them!
Then you would need commercial platesQuote:

^^Yeah, I wasn't sure how high I wanted to actually go and the wood I found was just enough for what it is now, I figure I can always add some more height to it if I need to.
wow that looks awesome mine looks always like crap since I use wood I find people throw out or construction site dumps but the frig grate I do use too
