Jobsite Photos
Real shops. Real jobs. Real material.
None of these are studio shots. They are jobs our customers ran, and a few of our own, on everything from kitchen cabinet doors to 24 foot cedar decking. Each caption tells you what is in the stack and which kit built it. The idea behind every one is the same: stack up, not out, so 16 layers of building material dry in the footprint of one, and nothing touches the freshly painted surface.
1x6 T&G oak boards and primed trim.
Left: 16' solid oak tongue-and-groove, roughly 2,500 lbs per stack, two stacks, each built on a Shop 96. 16 drying layers in the footprint of one.
Right: A Pro 48 drying 12' 1x6 and 5/4x8 in the same stack: two bunks, twelve layers, two board sizes. All in a 48 sq ft footprint.
Heavy oak or mixed trim. Same Blox, no tools.
4x8 sheets of SmartSide, Crew 72.
15 4x8 sheets drying in the footprint of one. Try that on a rail rack. First sheet to the last, every one goes on top.
Kitchen cabinet doors. Pro 48.
Left: Paint a door, stack it, paint the next. The rack gets built as you paint,
always loading from the top.
Right: Kitchen cabinet doors of every size, drying in one stack.
16' crown molding. Crew 72.
One wide stack instead of two narrow ones. 8' strapping/furring strips used as stickers (sold separately), with a Blox at each end and one in the middle, so the center Blox does the job of two. Virtually unlimited configurations.
Deep red 5/4 trim with a flawless gloss finish. Project 24.
Glossy red trim shows every mark. Each board goes on from the top, never slid through a rail or support, and it comes off the rack the way it went on.
1x4 and 1x6 oak trim. Shop 96 (split in half).
Around 1,700 lbs of stained 1x4 and 1x6 oak, 26 boards a layer, eight layers high, with room to keep going.
16' 5/4x8 trim. Pro 48.
The on-image line says it: no fasteners, no tools, just stack and go. Gravity and friction do the work to hold it.
Trim for a 40' x 84' Vermont salt shed we built. Shop 96.
2,400 lbs of composite trim drying in 96 sq ft of shop space. No clamps, no hardware. The weight of the material locks the stack together. Supports 1,000 lbs on the bottom block of any single stack.
Composite trim, drying outdoors under cover. Shop 96.
More salt shed trim, drying outside the painter's shop under a canopy. The rack goes wherever there's room. The Blox travel in one box, 20x18x11, under 20 lbs. Strapping/furring strips used as stickers, sold separately.
20' and 24' cedar decking, acclimating, ready to install. Project 24.
Not just for paint. Cedar decking acclimating right on the job, next to the deck it's going into, stacked and spaced for proper airflow to reduce cracking, cupping and warping before it goes down.
20' and 24' 5/4 cedar decking. Project 24.
Got 20' and 24' in the same delivery? Not a problem. Mixed lengths, one stack, 5/4 thick.
5/4 trim, and a close-up of the Blox. Project 24.
Left: 5/4 trim on long strapping. A middle row of Blox carries both sides, so the stack needs fewer Blox.
Right: How it works, up close. The Blox interlock, the strapping/furring strips (sold separately) sit in the Blox, and the weight of the material locks the stack together.
Primed 5/4 and 1x trim and casing. Pro 48.
Several profiles in one setup, a different size on each layer, stacked high in a small footprint. The photo on the right shows the spacing between layers: sized for 5/4 and 1x stock, with room for air to move around every board.
Finished painted trim, outside on the deck and inside the house. Pro48.
Out on the porch or inside the house, the rack goes wherever the job is. No tools to set it up, no tools to move it.
Trim and siding, pre-finished on the job. Crew 72.
Pre-painting before installation. Far easier to coat the material on the ground than overhead or 20' in the air.
