 After 13 years of supporting my boats, one of my PVC work racks broke.

 Made these for about 70$ and took just a few hours to construct. Sturdy and portable.
I consider them a must have for rigging work, both at home and on adventures.

Nice work! Could you describe the top fabric and the purpose of the T's on the one side?

The T-piece widens the foot of the thinner half of the work rack, increasing stability.
The saddles are made from a strip of single layer diamond cut hydro-turf.

New racks are functioning well.

Nice and simple and cheap. Easy to take with you on adventures is a big plus. Nothing like being on vacation, having to fix some broke wiring with the yak on the ground. My knees hate that shit now. Solid work Terry.

Next time you are down here we can crank out a set for you.
I really need to ramp it up on the kayak projects.
