Golf Club Rack Design and Build

Design

The design for this club rack was inspired by this post on r/GolfSimulator. However, I needed to fit the entire stand in 36″ space and also wanted to implement slightly larger spacing for woods and driver. I also wanted to move the “slot” for the clubs further into the cross-piece so that the clubs are less likely to slip out of their defined spots.

The CAD mockup actually was slightly wider than I ended up going. The gap between the furthest right slot and the right-riser is slightly smaller than appears in the rendering.

Build

  1. Cut all wood to appropriate lengths.
  2. Join all base pieces and risers with kreg jig using screws and wood glue for piece of mind.
    • Note that I tried to keep all pocket holes either internal or on the back so that they are less likely to be noticed.
  3. Drill holes for club slots in cross-piece
  4. Router all edges with either round-over or chamfer.
  5. Attach cross piece to risers using kreg jig, wood screws, and glue.
  6. Glue in pocket hole plugs for any visible pocket holes.
  7. Sand everything. 80 > 150 > 220
  8. Stain
  9. 3 coats of Poly, hand-sanding in between coats w/ 220 grit.
  10. Cut turf to fit base
