Default Garage Upgrade - Tire Rack

Scored some abandoned steel (thinwall 1-1/2" square tubing) a year or two ago and ended up doing a hanging tire rack. Its way overkill, but it only weighs 33.5 lbs and its crazy stiff and strong.

Proof tested as if it was the monkey bars. Tthe boy is 6-4 and >200#, but it also supports my fat gut on either end. Lag bolts are good for nearly 1300#. LOL.

First real project with the welder. Good learning experience/skillbuilding activity. Good thing I'm not paying myself by the hour.
