I've got two of these that are frequently fully loaded with 10-12' lumber. These things are very well optimized to bear the weight that they do, take continuous use, and occupy the least amount of space.
To achieve this, at this incredible price point, bora uses physics and steel, in a form factor that I can easily install or relocate in 10 minutes.
I have made many shelves, all of them custom to order, on average at 30x the price, due to my labor as a woodworker and designer. I could build a shelf in this form factor, or a shelf to hold an equal amount of weight, or a shelf to this $32 price point in materials, or a shelf that takes only 10 minutes to build and install. Do you see where I'm going with this?
An equivalent wood shelf in form and function would probably take me 2 days, cost $200 in carefully chosen hardwood, and still I would be wary of overloading it or how it might sit over time with long thin arms supported only on one end.
Even if I were to take liberties with dimension, and use plywood, and throw any budget at it, to execute something similar in wood is a serious engineering challenge. Plans for wooden lumber racks abound on the internet, but $32 in my neighborhood will buy a single sheet of 1/4" luan ply.
Needless to say, these lumber racks are a design marvel. My 'shop' is a loading dock, the width of a truck. I know that i hover around the 600lb load capacity on both units. I stand under these at my workbench or when at the table saw, sometimes for hours, and never give them a second thought, except occasionally in gratitude.
I'd buy more if I had anywhere to install them. I've visited many professional shops and except for metal fabricators, these bora shelves are the industry standard in small shops for holding sticks and boards.
Even at full price: cheap, fast, and good.
