How to Make a Fishing Rod Rack for Only $25​


Alright ladies and gentlemen, here is a video that should appeal to you crafty anglers. In this tutorial, I will show you how to make a rod/storage rack for your garage and keep your budget under $25.00 that is if you have all the necessary tools already. The tools and supplies that you need for this project include: 1x4 inch pine boards (42 inches) Jig saw Drill with two inch cup bit Sand paper and hand sander preferably Clear coat or stain for the finish C-Clamp Tape Measure In the first part of the video, I show you how to lay out the boards to start marking the holes to be cut. Stacking the boards on top of one another will help insure good placement and minimize mistakes. Starting three inches from the edge, you will start your first hole using the two inch cup bit. After this hole is drilled you will continue to drill a hole every four inches. You should end with a total of 10 holes. Utilize your sand paper to smoothen the rough edges. For the second board you must cut grooves, so that the rods can easily be removed from the rack. I utilize a simple level and tape measure to mark one inch groves that will later be cut with the jig saw. After sanding and a little clear coat your rack is ready to be hung with simple “L” brackets that can be purchased in the hardware isle of Home Depot.
