With the boat, the bike, the gear, the parts, the tools, the cabinets, etc, I find I need a way to store my waterskis. Dad used to have them each set on a couple of dowels coming out of the wall. I dont have any walls left. So far, there are about 15 skis.
I wondering if anyone has a good idea on how I could suspend them from a finished sheet-rocked ceiling?

Ceiling ( Or Ski-Ling as my brother calls his: With yours you could put some eye bolts in and string some ski line.....

And your brother has coined a great phrase - I love it - I dont have the skis to warrant using the title though - He has one hell of a collection - ENVYQuote:

It will take me a couple months to have time to do anything so keep posting up any other ideas
Yeah, they are resting on the top plate... He has 4 rows just like the other pick ( 100 or so ski's) BTW i see you're in Clovis, He lives up in San Juan.. Frequents Bullards alot!Quote:

Would you mind show us the build? I'm curious how it will come out and what the process is. Many people don't know this but I have some construction knowledge and find it fascinating. I also like Do It Yourself projects.Quote:

ive learned over the years that this process saves me time and money from having to do it several times as the idea gets better
short attention span doesnt help much either!
