Hey,

Loved your tank rack!!! That is exactly what I want!! I just had no clue as to how to do it.
Did you make it yourself and what are the dimensions of each compartment? What gauge steel (is it steel?)?
The PVC sewer pipe looks like you cut into thirds longitudinally, is that correct?

Very cool!!

Yah, its just 1x1 inch steel square tubing, with Pig PVC pipe cut into thirds.
I got sick of all our crappy shelving and such so I built that and the rack and the selving unit. I used to have about 9 tanks stacked in a semi pyramid, but it always made me nervous.

Excellent, did you weld it yourself or did you go to a metal fabrication place?
There is one close to my house, that's why I ask.
My tanks do take a bit of floor space, 35 as of last count w/o including 4 sets of doubles...
I think I may have a sale to get rid of some...
I like the design. Thanks for posting pics and explaining.
Dive safe!

I welded it up myself, but I'm sure a shop could do it for you if you dont ahve the equipment. It's a prety simple design.

Basement works for me......

Hey! why do you have a window in your basement!?!?
lol, I'm a floridan so I may be wrong, but that don't make sense.

Its a Georgia thing I guess, I dunno, Ive only been here a few years.
Its kind of split level properties here.

Must be North GA or somewhere where the water table is not an issue. We lived around the Savannah area and basements were called indoor pools
No, really. We had a similar arrangement with our house in Tennessee, very convenient, and it sure gives your house a lot more storage room!
Thanks for posting the pics!

I was on hear to look for some gear and saw this. I would love to discuss all about pvc rack, and epoxy flooring and all that other cool storage stuff; but I hear my life calling.
thanks for the amusement though

YTah, The PVC rack is the best tank rack I have evr had, I used to have one of those wooden ones where you have to make a little pyramid of tanks. but that doesnt work to well (cant get stuff of the bottom)...
