After getting tired of drying out my hockey equipment on the hood of my project truck, I decided to throw together this quick drying rack to help clean up a bit, unfortunately the equipment used to be able to live in the house and be aired out inside but since the fiancee and I moved in together it has been kicked out of the house.
Letting the equipment sit wet will ruin it in no time. I've been playing ice hockey since I was 7 and have always air my stuff out, while a friend of mine from college never does and he managed to ruin a $400 pair of skates in about 1.5 years just from them being wet/moldy all the time.
Luckily I managed to have all of the material on hand, and only had to buy the rod for the metal shelves and robe hooks for the hangers. I didn't paint the metal rod and it is now rusting and discoloring some stuff the rests directly on it....need to fix that.
The skates are hanging from wooden rod from a closet redo in the house.
Figured I'd share since there must be other people out there with smelly stuff for either themselves or their kids.
