These are the instructions it came with. It looks really straight forward and it was as easy to assemble as it looks.<\/p>\n

\"1)
Build the Bottom Unit, the bottom of the String Swing CC29 Guitar Case Rack.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is the first step. 1) Use a Phillips screwdriver to attach the B pieces to the A pieces using the pre-drilled holes. Be sure to keep the T-nut flange facing outward as shown in the picture above.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Glue from hole to hole.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

First Apply a thin line of glue from hole to hole on one side of the contact surface of parts A & C, shown in steps 1, 2 & 3.<\/p>\n

\"Gorilla
Gorilla Glue is water activated.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Gorilla Glue is water activated. So first Cliff dampened the area to be glued.<\/p>\n

The water activated polyurethane formula expands into materials to form an incredibly strong bond to virtually anything, making Gorilla Glue<\/b> your solution for almost any project or repair.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Then he put a line of glue from hole to hole.<\/p>\n

Cliff screwed the two bottom pieces onto the front bar with the flange facing out.<\/p>\n

\"2)
Attach the side pieces to the bottom end pieces.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The next stem is 2) Attach the D pieces to the bottom end of the C pieces using the pre-drilled holes. Be sure to keep the larger, beveled bottom hole facing outward as shown in the picture above.<\/p>\n

\"3)
3) Attach the D pieces to the top end of the C pieces, using the pre-drilled holes, as shown in the picture above.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

OK, so he did this out of order. He attached both top and bottom to each side. But it came out the same.<\/p>\n

At this point he wiped down where the Gorilla Glue had foamed out at all the connections.<\/p>\n

\"4)
Attach the top to the bottom.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Next 4) Attach the assembled top unit to the assembled bottom unit using the provided bolts as shown above.
\n*Make sure horizontal brace bars are facing out back of rack<\/p>\n

Attach the top to the bottom using the bolts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Push the bolt through both holes.<\/p>\n

Washer and Wingnut<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Put on the washer and wingnut. On both sides, of course.<\/p>\n

\"Completed

And here is the completed rack. It took less than half an hour to assemble, including time looking for a lost screw. The wingnuts can be loosened to fold the rack.<\/p>\n

\"Two
Two String Swing CC29 Guitar Case Stands corral a lot of the clutter<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Here it is filled with guitars (and a banjo). It holds five on one rack and six on the other, depending on how thick the cases are.<\/p>\n

The wood is beautifully finished. I’m really happy with them. They are available in two finishes, Black Walnut and Ash. This is Ash. Either finish would have done. Ash was less expensive.<\/p>\n

Cliff has talked about building shelves to hold his guitars for years. He had converted metal storage racks to hold guitars in his office\/workshop before we moved. But, this works and looks way better. It probably didn’t cost any more than buying wood and hardware.<\/p>\n

I would like to find some way to add casters to them so I can roll them out to vacuum.<\/p>\n

String Swing makes all kinds of displays and organizers for musical equipment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
