Re: pic: Wooden Rack - Center

By the way....

The real one is going to be made out of pretty thick lexan (specs anyone?).

But.. I predict the one in the center at one event (at least) may break/crack if someone lifts up very hard on any one Spider Leg on the middle row for any reason at all (intentional/accidental).

Just something to think about.
Play hard & play fair, but go easy on the field ok people?

That lexan disk is very thick, but from what I tried at kickoff in Manchester, NH, lifting on the Spider Leg makes for a heck of a leverage bar. The force relayed onto the disk when that happens will be quite a bit.

Be careful!
