My Rocket Rack

[Cigar]

I was sorting out the loft the other day when I found what looks like the end of a bed.
It gave me an idea for a rocket rack

I also found a 3.6 metre length of 22mm overflow pipe from the old water tank that used to be in the loft.

I cut the pipe into 70cm lengths and rested them against the frame.

I just need a quick trip to Wickes at the weekend to get some pipe clips to attach the pipes to the frame, and a couple of hinges and two lengths of wood to act as supports and it should be done

I will post an update when its complete.

What do you think?

Is a good idea if its something your going to keep then id get the pipe clips etc but if its gonna end up on the bonfire by the end of the night just drill a hole either side of each pipe top and bottom and secure with cable ties that's what ive done more than strong enough

Good idea recycling an old bed part! If you attached some stakes of some sort to the feet you could drive it into the ground and it would support itself.

I managed to finish my Rocket Rack over the weekend. Got some pipe clips from Wickes for 59p and added a couple of hinges from the main rack to the supporting legs. The supporting legs are longer than the main rack, which means I can stake them into the ground for extra support if needed. As the legs are on hinges, the supporting legs can fold flat and also means I can angle the rockets as desired

Here is the completed project:
