Cantilever Metal and Wood Rack

I've been trying to get more organized in the barn and something I've really been missing is a big rack to store all my wood and metal on. I bought some 4" x 8" H-Beams and set them up in the CNC plasma cutting table to cut all the holes on the face, which the arms bolt to. I set up a jig to weld all the arms, which I made from 2x4" rectangular tubing. To weld the cross bracing, I clamped two of the uprights down to the table and welded the cross bracing in place attached to them. The rack got a coat of paint and then it was set up in the back corner of the barn, once things were cleaned up. The new rack is going to hold a lot of material and should go a long ways towards helping me get more organized.

damn man your mom is a machine! Big Respect
I didn't expect another video for a while after you made that weight set. Nice surprise!
I’m watching this with my 2yr old son, while you’re doing the test fit of the frame, he’s yelling “careful! Careful!” 😂
anyone else always like his videos before watching? best content
This is honestly the best channel on KZread. One Request: more drake please!

It really is. His projects are incredible and work he puts in to them really shows in the end.
Good ol' Mom! Mine was a farm-girl that could work circles around most and was the toughest person I've ever known. She went home April 19, 2019. I think about her every day.
Your sponsors must love you- the work that went into that ad would have been a two part video for other channels 😂
Since being deployed I have binge watched every video you’ve made. Awesome work!

GO MOM!!! Showing why farm moms everywhere are badass! Cool rack, great video, like always.
“Mama Rainfall” This son of yours has some mad skills! Not many I’ve come across has his kind of talent, and at his age makes it even more impressive. Major respect from an old man who has seen much.

He's got skill no doubt. But I'm way more impressed by the willingness to go for those huge projects and than actually finishing them without compromising the quality. Those things are built to outlast his kids.
What a mom you got there I'm impressed! I'm so glad you seem to be getting back into publishing more content. I really missed your hiatus.
Helpful tip; If your welding table top plate is perfectly square, you can drill and tap some 3/8 holes around the perimeter. This allows you to bolt on tabs where needed for 90* corners and such. It was a game changer for my table. I used 3/8” x 16.

Well if you ever need to store the forklift, on top of that rack will be just fine. Built like a TANK. Cool shop, lighting is fantastic
Moms are the best! Another great build. Keep the uploads coming. I enjoy them verry much.

Super Mum. Great job, how great to see it all organised. Thanks for sharing
Your priorities seem in the right order. I have a priority 1A/prime directive, do not die. When building stuff.
Your Mom is Awesome! She raised you Right Too! Excellent project. Well done!
Stumbled on this channel searching for CNC plasma info a few years ago. Now I just get excited when I see the notification. Love the variety of your projects and the versatility of your skills.
You should contact Fireball Tools to see if you can get some squares and clamps.

Glad you know the difference between H-beam and I-beam. Most people are ignorant and would call it all I-beam
Nothing is impossible for a man with his heart in it (and a CNC plasma cutter in his barn).

Wow, what a rack. Kudos to your mom for helping you out. Waiting for the next adventure.
"I've been dreading this for awhile." Then you immediately just do the incredibly hard task. You're even better at being anxious than I am... damn!
*****When are you going to show the completion of the Studio AND the Camper Van Remodel? Did you ever finish them?*****
Damn. This guy works.
Mums a strong lady! I see where you get your work ethic and great values from. Great video. Keep them coming :)
That's awesome having your Mom give you a hand to put up the steel rack, way to go mom
Amazing build. Your “mom is a trooper.” my mom has caused trauma to everyone around her. Blessed you are, good sir.
I was working in a shop once and told a coworker I needed to hit the gym. He turned around and said "This is the gym". Great build. Inspires me to get stronger so I could do a project half this scale.
Yes! Been waiting for a new vid! Perfect way to end the day, keep kickin’ ass!
OLD LEATHER SMITH here, I basically subscribed 2 U 4 UR welding, because I am also a welder, It's nice 2 C U R finally insulating that great shop of yours, I personally do everything the old fashioned way, not all the fancy equipment, but I do enjoy your videos on welding, GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃
Great work and a really solid project. Your mom is a real trooper.
The thought, effort, care and dedication you put into your projects is inspiring. Thank you, once again!
Your mum is a legend
great build. 2 tips. #1 Lift with your legs not your back. #2 make a small triangle brace on the bottom of the uprights for they have to hold all the weight leaning forward
That’s badass your mom stayed and helped piece everything together. She’s prolly very proud of your ability to create👌🏻 fabrication is king 🤘🏻🤘🏻 nice work on the metal rack.
Nice job! We make certain to overbuild things that are going to be required to handle such heavy loads. That way there is no anxieties later on that we or someone else on our property could get seriously hurt or killed
Young man, you are a true artistic crafts person. The way you think things through, including possible needs in the future for what you are building is amazing. I so look forward to your videos. Thanks
Doing projects with mom is the best! :)
Glad you helped your mom building that rack!

Exactly. I was a bit disapointed when the video ended and we haven't seen the rack full and fully "in operation".
Youre very fortunate to have a mom whose not a girly girl. Was nice to see her giving a real helping hand to her son. I'm sure your mom knows you would do the same for her :o)
I thought he was going to start making the statue a liberty or somthing LOL .....Amazing Job ...and your Mom's a keeper, My mother Avoids work like it's got Covid or somthing LOL
Makes my little roll around cabinet I made for my shop look like a toy. Great job!! and a great surprise seeing another video so soon; watching your videos is what has gotten me back out to my shop and making things, so for that, THANK YOU! Don't think my wife thanks you, but I do!
Love watching your videos bro, your an inspiration. An dang you must be strong and have serious endurance to lug that stuff around all day. But then your mum comes in and starts lifting those beams with you. She is an absolute legend and clearly were you get your work ethic from. Great channel

Absolutely amazing! You are such an inspiration to those of us who build things.
I just found your Channel, Great content, videography and narration. Looking forward to catching up on your videos.
I’ve always been impressed by your craftsmanship. Well done, seem inadequate of this and others your have shared.
Holy crap my back hurts watching you build. B-e-a-utiful shop fixture your great great great grandchildren will be picking from.
Making material racks are a prime necessity for any workshop. I was given a virgin job. I chose the largest and thinnest sections that were suitable for the stock, because girth and not weight mattered most. Lots of small braces stop twists and warps. Make racks for light - medium - and heavy weight stock. Keep them fairly short, for tall racks are dangerous.
thank you mr rainfall
What an epic project... Incredibly handy. Anyone who is a wood worker or metal worker needs one of those!
I love your projects.
Mom is the best
Like the mother, like the son. You two are incredible. Such a massive rack!
Wowsers that is definitely beefy. It turned out very well and hopefully it gets great use out of it. Can't wait to see what ur next videos will be. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Keep Making. God Bless.
Beautiful!
In all the maker videos I've seen, there are a few special ones where moms are helping out. Like this one and some of the Adam Savage videos. That's so awesome.
