Simple Rack Keeps Hammers Handy
Larry Fulton’s hammer rack makes it easy to find the right hammer. Wheels on the rack allow him to move it to where the work is, so he doesn’t have to go back for a different hammer in the middle of a job.
  “A friend of mine built one, and I liked it so well that I made one myself,” says Fulton. “I made mine with bigger wheels so it rolls easily.”
  The simple rack consists of two 82-in. tall uprights salvaged from old office equipment. Six sets of cross members are welded to the uprights. Each one alternates between being attached to the front or the rear of the rack. This creates a slight angle as the hammers hang from the first and rest against the second cross member.
  A single cross member hangs about 30 in. from the base for hanging longer handled hammers and a pipe bender. The 25 by 26-in. steel base keeps the rack stable and provides more storage. Fulton butt welded pipe stubs to the base to hold bars and other odd tools. Four 5-in. wheels attach at the base.
