How Do You Build A Bike Rack Out Of Wood?
A bike rack is not only a good way to keep your bicycles organized, but the best way to keep them safe, too. You can build your own bike rack out of wood in only a few hours. Step 1 Lay all 10 of the 26-inch beams flat on the ground parallel to each other, with alternating distances between them of 5 and 7 inches. In other words, lay the first beam, then leave 5 inches, then the second beam, then leave 7 inches. Step 2 Place two of the 59-inch beams across the edges of the 26-inch beams on both ends. They should be long enough to hang over 2 inches at each end. Step 3 Drill holes into the 59-inch beams. Use screws to attach them to each of the 26-inch beams. You should now have a latticework that looks something like a ladder with uneven steps. Step 4 Flip over the frame and attach two more 59-inch beams to the other side, directly opposite the first pair of 59-inch beams. Be careful when screwing them into place not to drill into the screws from the other side. Step 5 Stand the frame
