I made racks from long pallets, about 5 feet long and about 3 feet wide, some were piano pallets. Several were solid, planks all the way across, others had gaps so I used salvage lumber from other pallets to fill the spaces. One stands in an unused corner, another is on wheels. I  made shelf standards out of 2x4's at intervals I determined would work best for my purpose, placed the pallets and screwed them to the crossmember on the shelf standard. The mobile one has an angled crossbrace on one side from the upper RH corner to the lower LH corner to keep it square. The stationary one is attached to the wall. I also used some carpeted(indoor outdoor)display shelving purchased from a building supply store that was closing that I use for finished cabinet parts. I think the whole thing cost about $25 for the 2x4's, hardware and shop casters. <br clear="all">Mike<br>-- <br>I AM, therefore I THINK!<br>Michael Magness<br>Magness Piano Service<br>608-786-4404<br><a href="http://www.IFixPianos.com">www.IFixPianos.com</a><br>email <a href="mailto:mike@ifixpianos.com"> mike@ifixpianos.com</a> </div>
