Post by: _Jon_ on November 30, 2010, 11:46:33 pm

Finally got my Bow Rack built out of scraps in the shop.  Did'nt turn out so bad for my first attempt.   :)

Jon did you write down all the measurements to share with us?

Yeah it's pretty easy to recall.

Sides and bottom are 1" X 4"

2 @ 48"  for the sides.  The bow slots are 6" apart centered.

3 @ 22" for top and and bottom back

I used a piece of underlayment for the back.

Everything came from Lowes.

There aint a thing wrong with that.   Looks good.  I want to build one but not sure where I would put it.  I am out of wall space in my study.  I guess I could put one in my bedroom.

Can the bows sitting in the rack on that angle negatively affect them over time?  Like causing them to twist or something.
