Can be made pretty easily to, but for $50, who has that kind of time.

I do. I'm going build myself one. But I'm a guy who loves projects.

Good for you! Post some pics (and blueprints?) when you're done.

Ya, looks great. No brainer for that price. Thanks for the heads up. I only have two cases, but I'm sure there will be more in the future.

I went the cabinet route. The cases are in the storage closet and the herd is temperature and humidity controlled.

I have one of those racks as well and it's excellent value for the money and does the job.

I also have one of those "corrals" and love it.

I know it was a good choice because my wife loves it too!

Best,
PJ

Got my String Swing rack tonight. It just took a few minutes to put together and the quality seems reasonable. It has enough width two hold five Mono M80s: 1 dread, 1 semi-hollow, and 3 electrics.

The only 'problem' is that I need at least one more. Some messes, when organized, take even more room.

Given the utility and price, I think it's a good deal.

I received mine today. Many years ago I was a card carrying, Union, journeyman carpenter. No way I'd try to re-create this and save $50. The stand is simple but great quality.

Got mine yesterday. Since it only holds 5 cases (and one tucked behind it on the ground), I think it may help me with GAS. If I don't have any room to store the case, maybe I won't buy any more guitars..... or so I'm trying to tell myself.

I tried that, but I gave up and bought a second rack.

I only have four cases in mine right now...and one of them is an empty travel case. So there's still room for growth, though I'm trying desperately to keep to my one-in-one-out rule.

I also went the cabinet route. I have a cabinet for the acoustics and one for the electrics (and the mandolin). In addition to controlling humidity, the cabinets are beautiful pieces of furniture.
