Not quite made with, but definitely Scrollsaw related! :)

Our next two seasonal craft fairs are two day affairs, but due to cost we could only afford a single 10x10 booth, so we needed some vertical expansion room. After pricing a few commercially available options and recovering from the sticker shock I headed for the shop.  The pyramid shaped one has 11x6" shelves and is about 24" high in the center. The other has 19x7 center shelves and 11x7 side shelves and is about 18" high. Should enable us to get more on the limited table space without appearing over crowded. I figure about $25 or so in materials and about 2-3 hours of time.

 

Hopefully it'll inspire others to make rather than buy.

Like what you did, only question that comes to mind is can you take them apart and store them flat?  Would seem a bit difficult to carry around if

they can only be full size.  That should give you about 3 times table space.  Great idea.

Everything comes apart for storage and fits in a single box. The legs are pegged into holes in the shelves so if I want to add shelves or change heights or layouts I can just make more legs!

Great idea and execution for expanding display space.

[frankorona]

Amazing job and wonderful idea.        

[Phantom Scroller]

Yes Dan I really really like these and the idea of pegs for the legs to hold it together for easy packing away brilliant thinking. I might have to do me some because I'm just running out of space on my tables and it would also be a great plant holder for out side in my garden. Thanks for sharing idea.       Roly

Thanks for the kind words everyone, and I hope a few were inspired to make some. The great thing about these for me is the only thing I had to buy was a coupe 1" and 3/8" dia dowels. The 1/4" x 3/4" slats and the 1" x 3/4" end pieces were all ripped from a 3/4" x 11" pine board I had in the shop. This gave me a total shelf thickness of 1". I glued a 3/8" dowel into the ends of the legs, left 7/16" protruding, so when I stacked the pegs would be about 1/8" apart in the shelf. Some wood glue and a brad nailer with 3/4" brads made short work of shelf assembly.

Great idea Dan. I might have to try it too!

[kywoodmaster]
