This project had a few goals in mind. I had very specific dimensions to stuff this rack so I measured carefully and built to fit. I wanted to use long carriage bolts to hold the feet to the uprights and I used one additional carriage bolt out of the one side to put hangers on. Everything is built from 2x6 as usual and I used some matte black exterior paint because it was premixed and cheap. I had to let the paint cure for days before the fumes went away and I could bring it inside. The supports for the shelves are Kreg'd into place and had to be hammered between the uprights, they are really tight and strong. Which is ironic given that they hold boxers, socks, shirts, etc. The strength of the feet to the uprights (and the clothes hanger-hanger) could probably withstand 1000lbs of force but alas they will never support much at all. Built to last, as always.
