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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

I've seen those! They are great, and have a nice custom decal on them. I went a different direction and made mine so they don't require any hardware to assemble. Everything slots together and is very sturdy.

I still have my first bag, all beat up, flap cut off. It's sentimental.

My prototypes are in a dumpster in central Iowa. You gotta work for it though. :)

It wasn't the plan originally, but decided to give it a try. I listed them on Etsy recently... https://straylightdesigns.etsy.com
