Multiple Guitar Rack and Roll!

This instructible is for a 6 multiple guitar stand / rack with rollers.

How to make your own multiple guitar rack/stand from materials that are lying around in your backyard. Well at least I have so many junk in my backyard i could probably make an M1A1 tank out of them and put a stamp "made in china" on it! hahahaha.

Step 1 Materials

materials:

+ round metal pipes any diameter (can be bought in your local hardware stores or junk yard)
1 piece of 7' footer
1 piece of 64" inches of pipe
1 piece of 35" inches of pipe

+ square bar (2x2) or any (also from your local hardware or general milling industrial store or if you have a work out bench you are not using it will do the job. Mine did.
1 piece of 40 inches

for this project:

+ welding tools
+ nuts and bolts
+ roller casters 4 pieces
+ foam pipe insulation, or pipe tubing, or the like
+ black paint

Ever thought of doing the same thing with some small diameter PVC pipe?  Should be faster to work with, just cut to length, glue it together., plus more lightweight.  If you use some threaded pieces you might even be able to have a stand that you can disassemble, throw into a bag and take to a gig.  Just a thought...

AGILES RULE

[raxel]

Hell yeah! They rule but aparantly someone was not too happy about it. The midle Agile on the rack has a tremolo on it and wifey was not all too happy that I've purchased another guitar, so I'm sad to let it go. I just bought it last week. Anyone interested? Let me know... =(

Great work, the final thing looks pretty professional. I suggest maybe splitting steps 2 and 3 up a bit, you have plenty of pictures there to add a bit more description, and make it a bit clearer.

I'm on it but it seems that every time I try to make a mouse over on my pictures, they tend to disappear and not get saved every time I click save. I don't know if its my browser but I tried IE and i can't even do a mouse over on the pictures. This sux!

Those further steps are much better, makes for much clearer reading! I also have trouble with mouse overs. I normally switch over to Opera, or Firefox if needed.

I will have this organized in the coming days. I'm a bit under the weather and can't spend a whole lot of time staring into my monitor. Thanks for those replies and for the interest and remember... if you have JUNKS, sell it! if not recycling is your best friend.

Oh another quick tip. Put a picture of the final thing as the first image on the intro step, so people browsing see it in the thumbnails.

Especially metal junk, you can get a bit for metal at the scrap yard.

I think my mouse over is working now. I think I am done... so I think.

Mouse overs seem to be working!
