Just installed new squeegee racks today

Got these from Ryonet they're pretty cheap and look great. Way better than the plastic ones that blackline makes.
Got to get some more to finish out the wall.

Nice, I see one thing I might have done different. I would have used something other than the waffer board , maybe something with a  laminate surface that would make it easier to clean, because I know I'm going to put a squeegee on there with ink on it. What do the racks cost if I may ask.

I thought about that too but this area is for clean squeegeeing flood bars only.
I think they're like $15? I think the whole set up you see you there was less than $100

I think I'm more envious of your pristine squeegees and floods.  Mine only look that clean when new.  :(

Nice. MHMers are lucky in that we only need peg-board to hold ours. I'm gonna build a rolling squeegee
rack at some point.

Can you post a pic of that? I just took a 2x6 and cut a few slits in it so they would slide in (for the dirty ones. The clean ones go in a drawer. I try to hide as many things as I can so my shop doesn't look cluttered.  I am not sure I like it yet so I am still looking for options.

Picture<thousand words.

Regular old peg board with the tool holder things. Goes in the hole where you
connect the squeegees/floods to the presshead.

Okay, I'll try and get a picture.

I get it so they hang so you see the side of the squeegee. Make sense.
