[QUOTE="pharaoh2, post: 173559, member: 4445"] I built mine out of 1x6 boards on the top and bottom and four 3/4 inch dowels, two on each end. The dowels are about 36 inches tall. I cut slots in the top for the rods to stand in and shallow holes drilled into the bottom for the butts to sit in. I put wooden molding along the bottom to dress it up, then stained and varnished. I'd take a picture but it's in a storage room right now full of other crap we need to toss. If you do build one, keep your rods vertical not horizontal. Leaving them horizontal can cause your rod to form a permanent bend, or so I read many years ago. I don't know if that applies to new graphite rods. [/QUOTE]
