Another homemade rack
Written by mike.hess82 on 10/20/2010 at 11:38 am

Actually I did sell one to someone in Roswell NM. I am in the process of making
another one. If you are interested send me an email and I will send you some
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.
