Yes I see the big bow, that means I can't cut a straight line. But i'll have it trued up before I get it mounted.

Bravo! Use what you got!

It's a wonder I have any scrap wood to build this the way I cut. Measure 3 times cut4.

Top is still dry fitted but I have some l brackets and will secure it from the bottom.

Btw, that's a level bubble!

Cut it off twice and it's still too short.

I do get lucky some times. Totally didn't plan this but this rack fits right smartly.

Will the other chunk of drafting table stand at the back of the new bench for racks and tool holders, then?

I think so, I don't like the idea of drilling into the dry wall for anchors. No drywall professionals were used in the installation of drywall. @errains

My old computer shop sigh it's pretty solid so it will work on the higher stuff.

Anything I mount to a wall is done into studs. I bought a stud finder years ago and use it all the time.
The wire shelves in my walk in closet were done weird and one morning I came in and the partial shelf and pulled out of the dry wall. The dip wad just mounted a shelf for clothes and stuff to just the damn dry wall. MORON.
Anyway. I removed the rest of the shelf, got the required parts to remount it and moved all the mounts where thy went into the STUDS. It aint coming down again anytime before I sell this place.
