Another homemade rackWritten by denell51 on 10/19/2010 at 04:04 pmMike,
Any interest is making one for sale? Your rack sounds perfect but I could not
find the pics?

Whitney/Sears box I purchased a few weeks ago. It is made of 1/8 inch plate
steel and was cut using a jig saw with bimetal blades. I had to build a press
brake in order to do the bend I needed, it's crude but it did the job well.
After drilling the holes and doing a test fit I noticed it seemed a little weak
in the "arms" so I welded 1/4 inch square stock on the sides to give it
strength; that worked out really well. I now am going to work on making a
backrest to bolt to the rack so I can ride two up without the box.
