2tier Rack In Use...

We got these pictures from one of our customers of how his 2Tier Case Rack worked out for him. All of us here at DRS and our customer couldn't be more pleased!

First a picture of what he was working with... a closet PACKED with cases, guitars, ect.

Just exactly how much stuff was sitting in that closet!

2Tier rack assembled, moved into the closet and loaded up.

There we go! How cool is that!

When one is not enough

Hello everyone. Time for some new updates! First, at some customers requests we've designed a modified version of our Racks for storing instrument cases. We all know what a major pain storing a dozen or so cases can be so we came up with a solution. Using the same sides as our instrument racks, the case rack has a different back. Instead of a fixed wood "comb" the back is slotted and uses plastic rods that can be slid left to right and then locked into place. This allows for any dimension case and provides a space between each case. The best thing is because of this, you can remove one case at a time and the entire stack doesn't fall over.

We also had a request to make a 2 level high case rack. So we mocked one up in the shop yesterday with a guitar rack on top. This can be configured for case OR instrument racks. The best part is this entire two level rack will fit inside of most closets (and will clear the closet doors).

Plus it just looks awesome! Check back in a couple days to see the full production versions.

this just in...

Today we got the first batch of Solid Rustic Alder Racks back from the finisher. HAD to snap a picture!

always improving

We're perfectionists around here and there had been an issue that's been bugging us for a while. Even though you can't see the bottom OF the bottom once the rack is assembled, the seam wasn't as clean as we'd like. Well a friday brain storming session came up with this answer and now the felt on each rack is sewn and then slipped (pulled really) over the bottom leaving a perfect seam. Huzzah!

May fever!

Its a nice sunny day to roll some stuff out of the spray booth...

Lastly some snap shots of the racks we custom stained for Nick Greer.

Rustic Alder...

So every once in a while we'll hear about something interesting through the grapevine... this time it was one of our lumber suppliers. Turns out they had glued up and surfaced a large order of Rustic (aka Knotty) Alder and while they were doing it the customer went out of business.

So they called us and asked if we were interested. Turns out they glued them to the exact size we needed and frankly Rustic Alder is pretty much our favorite wood out there. I'll be honest, we are wood FANATICS and the grain, knots and other "imperfections" in Rustic Alder is right up our alley. Well it came in today from Eugene Oregon so we wasted no time cranking out a set of sides.





We were able to get enough planks to do 25 racks. Check it out in our Web Specials

Roll Out....

Something new we cooked up today. This is a super rough mock up but it conveys the idea. Same pinned system as our Pedal Display Rack but with a roll out shelf instead. This is ideal for people who already have pedal boards and just need a place to store them or lots of cables and miscellaneous items. Production models would match our racks and would have a black shelf and black drawer slides.
