Good job, I think that is probably a better and safer way to store made up rods, than horizontal storage?.Your idea looks like its much easier to store and choose rods than my horizontal storage.

Great idea for forming the necks of the tubes. I think I might try fixing the screw on spring steel tool clips to the frame, there would be no need to drill and screw the tubes then..

The tool clips I mean look like these
