I am still waiting on my new kayak to come in but in the meantime I went ahead and built my stand, I used 1-1/2" PVC with 4 90s, 4 tees, and a set of cheap straps I got from Harbor Freight. Really wasn't difficult at all. I bet I have about $50 invested in it.

Looks good. You'll love it when you start rigging your yak!
You might consider putting a couple of straps on the bottom too so it doesn't try to spread apart.

Why the 4 tees???? Looks good just curious

I went with the 4 tees on the bottom to give it a little more flat surface to sit on as opposed to the 90s. It has worked out great for me and holds my 115x like a champ.

Can you provide measurements please???

The long pieces that make up the top and bottom are 60" and the shorter ones that make up the legs are 36". I drilled the holes 16" from the top and used 5" bolts. It's been a good rack for me and my Ride 115x, its supports it with no problems and even with the summer temps in my garage it hasn't warped.

cool!

how about this for $20 bucks? Nice work...I built something similar for all my RC planes

Stand

Don't mind if I do!

thanks for the idea!

You're welcome, mine is still working great for my WS 115x.

Very nice work

I like the looks of this one better than the harbor freight stands (which i currently use. The harbor freight stand are a bit wobbly and almost too tall for their own good. Im gonna have to try this for sure!

I think I'll try this over the weekend!
