yes that right, it's a placemat storage rack. swmbo has placemats for every season and holiday and wanted a rack to keep em organized. so i said no problem. a simple one day project using up left over 3/4 and 3/16 plywood. no fancy joinery just staples and glue. finished with rattle can lacquer. this is only part of her collection, there are more in the kitchen ! sorry but no long narrative with a 100 pic's on this one !
working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.
Looks a lot like my table saw (and RAS) blade storage, except infinitely nicer lol Good idea for it, I wouldn't be opposed to making something like that for towels too... I hate how they don't stack right and then you pull one out and you get them all...
thanks guys it made her happy. some of those are table cloths. i dont think i made it big enough, thats only a portion ! i asked before and she said thats all she wanted.

I used to use a lot of sheets for autobody work. Have 80 - 2500 silicone carbide. Probably over 1000 sheets that I also don't really use anymore. Now it is just discs, belts for the DS, and foam pads.
Nice one Pottz, a functional piece of craftsmanship that makes good use of stock inventory, pleases the individual it was created for, and - it didn't require a lot of time thus providing a relaxing day in the shop with instant gratification for you. Looks like a home run sir, great all around.
Idea: if you had a 3/6" of ply under the place mats it would act as a slide. This way you can pull out the stack of pace mats out and take way you need and slide the rest back in.
I did that for my golf shoes for my locker. 2 pair per slide. Guys are now copying my slides.
