Subscribe for new videos every week. I had a last minute change of plans before building this. I realized that using pipe for the arms would be a lot easier and less expensive. I also read a few instances online where people have used 3/4" EMT conduit for the lumber rack arms with good results after several years. So, that's the route I went with.

@mikewest712 8 лет назад

great tip about countersinking the backside to allow for drywall.

@k2thah286 8 лет назад

I think the most elegant part of this design is how little sawdust it collects if nothing is on a shelf.

@woodturningjohn 10 лет назад

Great tips, one of these racks are on my to do list, just have not done it yet. If the weight ever does start to be a problem, just slip a dowel, pvc pipe or ??? into the conduit, a tube in a tube is very very hard to bend. If the conduit wants to bend the weight is spread out over the in side tube which makes it that much harder to bend.

@JayBates 10 лет назад

woodturningjohn Great thinking John.

@billstrader4326 8 лет назад

I just finished building mine, but I made one design change. Instead of the 6" screws holding the boards to the wall, instead I used the holes I'd already drilled with my forstner bit. I could only go about 2 1/2" with my cheapo drill press, so it left me about 1" of meat to work with. I pre-drilled holes through to the other side, then used 1/4 X3" lag bolts with washers to attach the boards to my studs. Of course, the lag bolts are hidden once you install the EMT pipes. I have 20" pipe lengths, and they are holding up like a champ.

@itsmeforsure5475 5 лет назад

WHen I watched this vid, I was thinking I would use lag bolts too, but I'm not a structural engineer. I like your idea of hiding the bolts, guys like us will look at it and say, how the hell is that hanging up there.

@countrylifetales2700 5 лет назад

This was so helpful. I'm in the design process of building one of these and, it just so happens that I use that conduit to build 'cat proof' fencing. I bend the conduit to create arms that hang over the main fence and then I attached netting. The cats can't get out after that. What a great idea you had using the conduit. Thanks for the video.

@rmpennin 10 лет назад

I really appreciate the speed of your videos. I'm usually hesitant to watch shorter videos because I figure they gloss over too much important stuff, but even worse are the ones that take an hour to stammer through every tiny detail. The video editing / fast forward through obvious and repetitive steps is awesome. Thanks man, just subscribed.

@christopherhamblet213 3 года назад

Thanks! I’m building a woodworking shed that has exposed studs. It’s tempting to just drill the studs and mount the EMT, but I think it will be easier to drill new studs on the drill press and mount them next to the existing ones.

@JamesTatePa 7 лет назад

Loved your lumber rack so much that I built one very similar for shop that I am building. I used 3/4" EMT and drilled the holes with a 15/16" spade bit. Was planning on using a forstner bit but all I had was 7/8" or 1" with one too small and the other too loose. All I could fine locally in 15/16 was a spade bit but it worked fine. Took some pictures and was going to upload but don't see an option for that.

@billyblackie9417 Год назад

That is a great project and a great idea. I love how you give the measurements it help my age group retired and medical conditions added to our age at around 60 plus and your idea gives me a great help as I can stack the woods off the ground and I can also mount these lower to suit my conditions. Thanks a million. I love your videos and I'm very impressed with your camera views of your works and explanations in case I miss something and when I don't see or understand something your great explanation bring it home. You're great

Thanks for the video, Jay!!! I did this in my shop this past weekend and it worked out great!!! The only thing I did different was to use 6" lag bolts instead of the the washer head scews because they were more than half the price of the screws.

@RobbsHomemadeLife 10 лет назад

Conduit is the cheapest and strongest material you can buy at the hardware store and it is not used in DIY projects nearly enough. Thanks for making and sharing.

@JayBates 10 лет назад

Robb's Homemade Life I'm beginning to find that out!

@swilhelm3180 3 года назад

That may be but the conduit is not anchored into the 2x4's, right? Just pressed into its hole? If you're pulling out something heavy from the wall won't it pull the conduit out a bit? You'd have to be continually checking it to see if its slipped out. Can't we anchor the conduit to a flat surface somehow? Another problem with this design is its 3.5" out from the wall. That's wasted space. 7" if its used on both walls. But wall standards have brackets that would use up valuable vertical space because of their needed height so you couldn't use them. Perhaps a bracket that's curved underneath the shelf? Not easy. Most people are just using wood for brackets. The great thing about conduit is its so narrow in diameter. So you can use several levels without using up much vertical space. The more levels the less weight each needs to hold. If there was conduit with an adapter for wall standards that would be great. One could use maybe 3/8" plywood anchored to the 2x4 verticals to make sure the conduit doesn't move out from the wall. And then you would never have to worry about heavy objects denting the bottom lumber.

@joedance14 2 года назад

Hi Jay, hope everyone is staying healthy. I started on the conduit lumber rack, using 1/2” conduit because I had it on hand. It measures .706” outside diameter. A 3/4” hole is kind of loose (tried a 3/4” Forstner bit, spade bit and drill bit), and 11/16” is too tight. At this time, I’m inclined to increase the angle from 11 degrees to 15, and go with the 3/4” drill bit. I found the 6” Timberlock and Headlock washer head screws, as well as some 3” washer head screws, instead of wood screws. I like the concept and should have it completed soon. The use of conduit enables this rack to be more compact, in terms of vertical space. Three levels will fit above the Wood magazine plywood cart and below the mini-split. I’m also planning to install two or three levels above the garage door. Thanks again!

@ericmueller8957 5 лет назад

Great job. Easy design and better than almost all the commercial products. I went with 1/2 inch black pipe and the rack is super strong.

Even though you made this video 6 years ago, I am relying on your test of the strength of the 3/4 emt conduit! Just built a similar rack and put a load of cherry on it. I used green 2x4 (actual size) rough cut Hemlock from my local mill. Now I just hope that the thickness of the EMT Conduit has not varied since you did your test! I enjoy your videos, thanks.

@threeque 10 лет назад

Most economically practical wood storage I have ever seen. I think this is for me. My first wood storage I made years ago I did the same, but used dowels. Much more expensive than EMT. Great idea.

@JayBates 10 лет назад

threeque Thanks! How are the dowels holding up?

@threeque 10 лет назад

Jay Bates It is long gone. Was very light duty for balsa and wings for RC planes. It was probably only 3/8" dowels.

@mkbcoolman 5 лет назад

I just scored a lot of great hardwood at an estate sale, and when I got it home I needed to upgrade my lumber rack to store it all. I debated on building something similar to what I already had using wood racks (wood whisperer style), but then I saw this video and decided it would be the easiest. Wow...this system was crazy cheap to build, went up super quick, and is pretty much indestructible. The only part that that really took any time was over at the drill press. I would have never thought to use EMT, but I've got my new lumber rack packed to the hilt and it's solid. I'll be looking to EMT for a few other things in the shop now.

@eewhite25 10 лет назад

Thanks for the video!

@MechanicalMind7 8 лет назад

Jay, thanks for sharing this design. I ended up modifying it into a free-standing version (sits on the floor) since my basement isn't framed yet, but otherwise stuck with the EMT/2x4 design. I also pinned in the pipe arms with some 1-1/4" self-drilling drywall screws (the kind for going into steel studs) since I'm concerned about them working their way out over time. I think it will serve me well.

@volcomseco 8 лет назад

+Jay Bates What size forstner bit did you use? 3/4" conduit is the measurement of inner diameter of the pipe. the outer diameter is bigger than 7/8" but smaller than 1 inch. i started this project but split the 2x4s when i used the 7/8" forstner bit, i had to force the pipe in. and 1in. forstner leaves too much play. I guess ill have to order a 15/16" forstner

@volcomseco 8 лет назад

+Jay bates nevermind. I did it with the 1" forstner. worked perfectly. Then i read someone elses comment below on the same thing. haha sorry man. GREAT VIDEO

@IAmKyleBrown 7 лет назад

I know this is an old post, but I just built more of these using an 15/16" spade bit, fits like a glove. Cost about $2 on Amazon.

@jameswoyciesjes3902 7 лет назад

Thanks Jay. Just built a lumber rack using the EMT conduit. I did make some alterations. I put the conduit holes through the 4" face, opposite of the face you used and I did wind up using a 7/8" Forester bit. As the 7/8" is a little tight, I drilled the 7/8" hole, then offset by 1/16" and drilled down with the 7/8" bit to make the hole oval in the vertical direction. I was able to pound the conduit in with this little relief and it is held nice and tight. Having the tighter hole will add some support to make up for what was lost by not using the board the long way from your design. Important note though, you have to be careful how close to the end of the board the last hole is. If it is too close, pounding the conduit in with the squeeze could split the board as it did to one of mine. I'd leave at least 6" from the end. Thanks again!

Nice idea. I would make a small change and give it a slight upward angle on the holes so you could use it for plumbing pipes not just wood.

@MichaelOlsen-Engineer 10 лет назад

Sweat job Jay! Just a quick note aboutthe strength. Given the amout of "deflection" with you standing upon a length of pipe, a reasonable estimate is 200 lbs. Assumeing the wall mount to have "infinite" sheer strength (i.e. only consider the weight the pipes could hold), each level of your rack would be able to hold 1200 lbs (~1/2 ton)!

@JayBates 10 лет назад

Michael Olsen Plenty strong enough for my needs.

@Mattai80 7 лет назад

But then...it's attached by 2 washer head screws to the wall (or some additional ones in the holes)?? This is the part in my project where I fear more that on the pipes/arm strenght holding the wood.

If you do a similar project, my experience is starting at the top makes hanging the uprights easier overall. Sure, you'd have to hold it against the wall while standing on the ladder, but since you're butting each against the ceiling, not all that difficult.

@petergillock9533 10 лет назад

Good question. I would think the weight would be distributed enough, unless you had a large stack on top of it. You could cut a pool noodle and slip it on the conduit if you were worried about it. That might prevent damage to the wood.

@DIYTyler 10 лет назад

Thanks Jay for your inspiration...I just completed a much needed rack of my own, based on your plans. 🤘

Glad you included footage of the very "scientific" strength test. Now the data cannot be refuted. Lol lots of nice tips in this one. Thanks for the info.

Very nice. I loved the "hologram Jay".

@JayBates 10 лет назад

Bill Hantzopoulos lol. Just put it there to see if anyone would notice.

Thanks! I did this and it came out great! Avail wall space was a little smaller so scaled down to fit. Great vid! Had to get creative on angled holes, w couple scraps of 2 by assisting the tilt. Need a better drill press now. :-)

Great way to test the design. thanks

@TheChrisPineWorkshop 10 лет назад

Excellent idea for a quicker cheaper solution! I use that conduit on pipe clamps, have for years... cheaper than black pipe!

@JayBates 10 лет назад

Chris Pine Pipe clamps? Really.... hmmm...............

@TheChrisPineWorkshop 10 лет назад

Jay Bates I used the heavy duty conduit for the pipe clamps... It is as thick or close to as thick as pipe

@TheOrcasRule 4 года назад

I was thinking about doing this, too, but my concern was more about whether the studs can handle that much of it being bored out (I was going to drill the hole directly into my garage studs? (Maybe it's better to sister on some 2*4s ??) I ended up building 6 shelf brackets instead from leftover OSB and stud quality 2*4s, and it works great. (Not as elegant as the conduit, but it was totally free because I had a bunch of otherwise useless scraps from the roofing and siding materials of the garage.)

very nice - i have some conduit kicking around - going to try something like this : )

@ericwright7643 10 лет назад

Very cool design. I had a flashback of the peg board that my high school gym teacher used to make us climb up.

@JayBates 10 лет назад

Eric Wright Dude!! What was that called? We used to have one too. Climbing up wasn't hard but getting back down with every peg hole was.

@ericwright7643 10 лет назад

We literally just called it the peg board and yes it was very difficult. There was this guy a grade ahead of me. We called him 410 because that was his 1RM for bench press. He would do a one arm pullup every time he moved a peg up or down. He was taking some crazy black market roids from mexico so he probably doesn't have a liver now but, man everybody though he was the coolest. :)

@russveinot5754 10 лет назад

great idea! I don't know how many screws you put in each vertical 2x4 but they are carrying all the weight. I always put a horizontal 2x4 under the vertical boards to take some of the pressure off the screws.

@JayBates 10 лет назад

Russ Veinot but isn't the bottom 2x4 held on by screws as well? So basically it's just like adding more screws to the vertical 2x4s, right?

@threeque 10 лет назад

Jay Bates That's the way I see it too. Again, not a problem. Too many screws for failure, even for a fully loaded rack. If this was a problem, I would go right to the ground with the verticals.
