Anyone have a lumber rack system they are particularly proud of? I am about to build one for my ERC. It has to stay out of the sun. I don't like deadstacking it out in the weather so I have built a shed, but I now I need to build a framework to hold 1Xs and ostly all I am going to stock is 8' 1Xs because that is what most people have been requesting.
I haven't given much thought because I figure there usn't much to it, but I figure it don't hurt to ask since there usually ends up being more to stuff than what I figured.  ::)

I'm building mine based on the one used by Tom-From-St.Louis. I checked his gallery to see if he had photos of it in there, but he doesn't nor has he been on this site in a while. If the admins. don't mind, I can hook you to a thread on Woodnet where he has a couple pictures posted.

Might be over kill for what you need but it is a versatile design that allows for growth.

Wow. That's quite a rack. I think I can massage the design enough to fit my requirement. Thanks Brad.
