Here is the rack I have been working on. Finally got it mounted. Still have to paint and clean up a few things.

Made this up from 1/2 inch tubing. Will add more build pics later

 

very nice but seems a little tall

 

It turned out looking taller than I thought it would, but for the money, I can always build another.

I have less than $20 in it.

 

IMO it looks kinda flimsy . . how did you go about mounting it to the roof? and what do you plan on carrying in it? but props for building it yourself!

 

looks kinda thin... btw what percent tint do you have on there?

 

under 20 explain alittle

 

Here is my EMT Rack. I didn't want a super tall one and I used 3/4 conduit so it is a little more stiff. There is more info on it in my build thread.

 

Dont really have plans to carry much of anything in it but it is stronger than you think.

I agree that 3/4" would have been better and I will probably build another at some point in time.

This was an expiriment to see if I could do it.

I didnt like the height at first but after having it on a few days it is growing on me.

New baby and snow has put the hold on getting it painted and finished. Hope to cure that this weekend.

 

I have a dumb question...what does EMT stand for again? It's not like the paramedic term i'm assuming..right? lol but, looks decent to me!

 

EMT= Electrical metallic tubing It's the pipe that is run to put electrical wiring in. All the big box stores have it.

 

Yep!, Plus when you have some left over from wiring your shop it makes for some inexpensive building material.

 

i like the look of a roof rack good job building your own

 

Oh, conduit is what i've heard it called before lol I knew it was electrical something tubing haha but, I don't know if I want my rack circle or square tubing yet, cause they both have there pros and cons..

 

What did you use to mount it to the roof, and where can I get them?

 

Finally got some paint on
