"necessity is the mother of invention"

 

(I used to think that was a frank zappa quote)

​

   hangwell is, plain and simple, the result of the need to hang the quiver of boards my family had acquired over the years, which was standing, stacked upright, in a corner of the patio. if the wind blew too hard, they'd fall. i looked at board racks for sale and most needed to be attached to a wall, but i didn't have the wall space. there were others that attached to a ceiling, or with pully mechanisms for garages, but my car port ceiling was too low. There were wood stand-up racks that looked really nice, but I knew they'd gather a lot of dust, leaves and debris underneath.

   no model I saw fit the space and I thought maybe i could design one...

so i did.

Then some of my friends saw it and started asking where they could get one and if I was ever going to make some for sale... so i did...

and that led you here!
