Hello,
I really like the jeepinpete conduit roof rack, but I wanted something with an open back or where I could add a removable back bar. Lots of times I need to grab some lumber etc. I don't have any roof rails either, plus I have a sunroof. The dimensions I've come up with are about 84" long and 50" inside by about 6" high.
What I'm doing differently... instead of making little fishmouth/coped intersecting 3/4" pieces, just through hole the 1" pieces and slide the 3/4" through. Not sure how much time constructing it in this fashion might save, but you could probably reduce some prep/drill/cope and weld/grind/warp time.
Here is what I'm thinking so far.
From a quick measure it looks like 84" would be fine and probably about the max length you'd want to go. 52" Outside should give me ~50 inches inside and should be enough to fit 4x8 sheet materials.
I might need to add more to the floor, but I would like to keep this light.
Thanks,
Perry
