I made this rack for my beaver boards. I can put up 18 beaver at once. You need 3-56" 2x4, 3-15" 2x4, 12-3" wood screws and 3 sheets of 3/4" plywood to make 9 beaver boards. cut 9-13/16" slots in the long 2x4's, 5 1/2" apart, on center. Once done, you can remove the top board and take one beaver board out of the rack just like a book from a book shelf. Takes very little space to store the whole works. Hope that some beaver trappers out there can use this. Happy Trappin'

nice post, it definately is a spacesaver in the furshed. I like the way that your stand gets them up off the floor for better air circulation! ;D

Thanks for the post. I'm doing the same thing in my 8x8 fur shed. When it's that small you have to do a good job of organizing or you find yourself skinning outside.

That's a good Idea on the beaver rack. I try to keep mine separated with whatever is handy but I have to move them often and it's a pain..I'm going to build a couple soon..Thanks for sharing

instead of building a rack, u can also drive 2 16 penny nails in the wall about 2 inches apart and space them about every 6-8 inches down the wall.

Good tip Earl. Sometimes there's an advantage to being a procrastinator.
