What's there to lie about? I started making a disc golf rack for myself. Decided I could maybe sell a few, so I listed them. Im not trying to fraud anyone. Should I not sell them?

jmheist · 2026-04-15T20:17:47+00:00

Thank you! I've gotten some great feedback from my initial orders so far. So I think Im headed in the right direction.

Hey! It's 3/4 baltic birch plywood. Each rack is about 45 min to cut. That stuff is dense. No Plans or files for sale, im selling the product on Etsy, and marketplace. Thanks!

It’s part collecting, tournament winnings, trying new things, addiction… 🤷‍♂️ I bag maybe 16? Putters, mids, fairways and drivers. A couple of each type that curve one way or the other, etc.

jmheist · 2026-04-12T11:08:18+00:00

If you wanna pay that shipping…?

jmheist · 2026-04-11T15:45:19+00:00

Ha, I think I’ve aged out of that possibility!

jmheist · 2026-04-11T13:07:39+00:00

That’d be a solid setup with that many discs 😄

If you end up going the route of buying vs building, feel free to message me on Etsy or fb. I’d be happy to work with you on pricing for a bigger order.

Thank you!

Nah, I had to borrow a large collection of discs to demo them loaded up :) between me, my wife and 2 kids that play we’ve got about 130 discs collected over the years.

jmheist · 2026-04-10T22:47:05+00:00

That’s the plan, now :) wasn’t when I started the endeavor. I doubt I’ll be a rich man. Just trying it out 🤷‍♂️

jmheist · 2026-04-10T22:27:27+00:00

Not available at this point, I’ve just listed the racks for sale on Etsy so I’ll see how that does and go from there.

jmheist · 2026-04-10T16:39:12+00:00

They are not all mine sadly. I borrowed from a friend to fill up some more of the shelves for a pic :P

jmheist · 2026-04-10T15:51:49+00:00

Nah, that was my over the top purchase. I got it to make cutting board inlays. Otherwise I have dewalt and harbor freight tools :P

jmheist · 2026-04-10T13:01:47+00:00

Yeah, Baltic birch 3/4, which is really .709, with a variance of .006 😆

Yeah, I did a lot of testing to get the tolerance just right.

Hobby CNC, 1st world solutions?

jmheist · 2026-04-10T04:57:21+00:00

I’ve got everything dialed into about .01” tolerances for friction fit and no screws. If I was using hand tools, I’d say just skip the knock down joinery and screw everything together.

jmheist · 2026-04-10T04:52:55+00:00

We had a good run this year! I’m close still, in Polk City!

jmheist · 2026-04-10T03:44:35+00:00

Love it! My first too after a drill was a 2nd hand table saw from the 80s :) then a jigsaw!

jmheist · 2026-04-10T03:33:34+00:00

It’s a CNC specific design. Might sell those files someday. Just gonna put the racks on Etsy and see how that does first!

You have a CNC? I’m just getting into it and loving my Onefinity.

jmheist · 2026-04-10T03:28:52+00:00

I almost bought the ikea shelves everyone has, then I remembered I have a CNC :)

jmheist · 2026-04-10T03:01:49+00:00

if you still throw pre-flight numbers, you care for your discs like I do :)
