Fast Drying Rack

Issue 257 - Feb/Mar 2016

This simple drying rack is perfect when spraying cabinet doors with lacquer. With it, I can spray a door, wait 15 minutes until the fast-drying lacquer is dry to touch, then flip the door to spray the other side. If any tiny marks are left on the edge corners, they can be scratched off the next day with a fingernail, leaving no visible marks.
