- In this video we are building a wooden swiveling bike rack for easier, better, and cleaner looking mountain bike, road bike, e-bike, or any other bike storage! I show you how to build this with both hand tools and power tools. These types of bike racks are the best because you can move it out of the way when it's not in use. And if you have lots of bikes, it's very easy to store multiple bikes next to each other.

The Wood Clip you made on your Instagram was SICK!
Awesome look. I discovered a trick when designing a Murphy bed using gas pipe. If your vertical pipes were 3/4” with T’s top and bottom, you could mount two horizontal 1/2” pipes stood off the wall slightly that would pass through the 3/4” T’s. Now your racks can swivel and slide.
Next we have to figure out a rack that can hold a rear wheel and we’re really saving space!
Pro-tip: When gluing end-grain, especially with oak, put some glue on the end grain and massage/press it in with your finger so it will absorb, wait a few minutes, and then apply more glue and assemble the whole thing. The end grain of wood is basically just a bunch of tiny straws, so it tends to soak up glue, and as a result the glue joints tend to fail. By presoaking them with glue and letting it harden up a bit you can reduce the likelihood of running into problems with it.
Being so young and enjoying the craft of Woodworking is impressive and You're an inspiration for all your age. Your patience and discipline is next level. Keep it up young man, you have a bright future
Massive respect for showing construction using hand tools and basic methods! You prove we dont need a fully stocked woodshop to make something great!
Right, I particularly enjoyed the part where he pulled out a dovetail jig and Dewalt router with dovetail bit and did it by hand ;)
Yeah but I still want a wood shop... With all the new and old tools of course
Hey Seth! Fellow Missourian/MTB girl here! Just wanted to say that the production quality of your videos is outstanding! Also love your passion for woodworking and how you’ve integrated it into your mountain biking hobby. I enjoy both as well!
Thanks so much, I've been looking for something to hold my bikes that was out of the way and now I can build one that just doubles the fun!
Definitely going to build this look sick and saves space
Dude, that'so sick! You give me so much inspiration!!
Thank you for another weekend project!
With the bitter cold weather we’re getting in Missouri this week I would love to see some bike cave content!
Love the "Woodwright Shop" background music 🎵🎶 while using the draw knife 😁
Quick way to get the inside radius-you can drill a hole using a hole saw (whatever the radius is). Then all you have are the straight cuts.
I really like your hand made vibe, with the hand powered drill and many other antique woodworking tools
Hey man love the build, I was just starting to plan a swivel rack for my bikes and this is perfect. Thought you might want to know the term to "level side to side" is to "plumb" . Great work and thanks for the sketchup plans!
Love this idea! With having maybe a couple to many bikes this will help clean up my shop area a lot! I will be taking this project on for sure!
I’m really really enjoying the woodworking side of this channel keep up the great work👍🏼👍🏼
Whoa, this is awesome! Game changer for bike storage, no question!
This is an awesome idea. I was impressed by the inginuity and skill.
This is a really kewl project - thank you for sharing your talent and idea with us all!
Great idea! Love this design
just finished making this and it has saved me tons of space I previously couldn't fit my car in my garage and have my bikes in there, after making these I can now have my car in my garage also. :)
I've watched this twice and I'm still impressed. Suck part is I just remodeled my garage last year. Might have to rethink.
I would love to have one of this on my wall, great diy tut.
These are great! I have been looking all over You Tube and these look the best by far
Love your woodwork videos. And really appreciate that you did it with hand tools as well. FYI: checking that something is "level side to side", ie perfectly vertical, is called "plumb". There's a tool called a "Plumb Bob" that you can use to check if something is plumb.
Great video. It inspired me to build my own to replace the floor based bike storage I have in my work shop. I actually built four of the racks using different types of wood. First rack I built out of Red Oak. It's definitely strong and holds my Specialized Roubaix with no problem, Rack # 2 I built out a Red Oak & Poplar. Again nice and strong and holds my DIY Bamboo Gravel Bike with no issues. Racks 3 & 4 are built out of Birch and are for my Mt. Bikes. I built all four over a period of 5 days and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I gained just over 20" of floor space and the bike storage looks 100% nicer. Thx for the video once again
Finally! Someone using the draw knife in a video....
Good Job.
Dude! I’ve been trying to figure out how to build these. Thanks Seth!
-Nick 😃👍
Awesome idea like always. Very creative!
Looks awesome !
Cool build man, very well designed 👏
Very inspiring, great job!
Fantastic. I was researching just this. And was wondering how to put the swivel parts in. Awesome 👏
That's a dope accessory. Nice!
Dude, you are a craftsman. Impressive for a young kid. Good job.
I really dig the multi-method instructions
Solid. Was looking for something like this. 🤘
Awesome build
The production quality on this episode is super clean!! Love those sounds of the wood creaking and cracking, so good.
Great, just what I need, another project. 😉 This looks amazing! I will definitely be copying your design.
Very talented. Nice job.
i love your idea. this is the one i was looking for.. i have to try for myself one. Keep making video like this..
Solid video saved me money
The legend is back!!!
I love the hand tool vids
Dude! Great presentation. Excellent people skills and attractive behavior! Refreshing to watch you do your thing.
dude your videos are so awesome and make me want to get out there and ride.
I like these so much more than the Steadyracks I have!
I need one of these!
Woah, thats awesome!!!
Thanks i'm going to build one now.
Dude that was awesome
What a nice video, thanks!
Brilliant !
Super nice!.
Great build, couldn't find the plans. Would love them to make a few of these. Big Thx
This is really dope
cool build
I really need to make that.
I have waited so hard for this video
Very Nice job
This is some insane craftsmanship. Amazing job! I’m going to do the same thing but with a sheet of plywood, some screws, and a jig saw! 😂
This video is awesome
Super nice! I wish you made that video a month and a half ago. I bought a bunch of bike hooks because i couldn't find a DIY swivel mount option.
I like the idea, I wish I have space in my small apartment for this.
I've been holding onto some oak for "a project" lol. I now have that project. Nice work!!!
Yea .. you gotta have a complete woodshop as a prerequisite for this project
good job
I store my bikes this way. I put a micro fiber rag over the grips/levers to keep them from scratching each other. Mainly they are to help keep us from getting a bar end to the face though.
I’m a kid and I love this lol
Very nice.....yep ordered metal rack.
Would you have preferred a rack on rails that slide horizontally? Would that save more space?
Nice video 👍👍
awesome video
Nice.
this is exactly what I need. Btw, do you think PVC is an alternative option for building the wooden part?
I love your vid’s
TY!! I wanted to diy a swivel houseplant shelf but I couldn't figure out what people were using to make it lol
Looks dope ;)
Video suggestion: Try and make a kicker ramp that can be disassembled and re assembled without using any screws and you can wear it as a backpack for transportation, very similar to the mtb hopper ramps.
Hi, what type of timbers are good choices to make a vertical bike stand?
Super cool bro. I guess I found a new channel to follow🤷🏽♂️
Beautiful racks. Although I wouldn't put so much details (like dovetails) for something mounted in my garage.
Thumbs up! My wife has been after to hang up our ebikes! Great timing for a winter project. Thanks
Would you consider making these as kits? Like you get the hardwood, cut them so that they just need to be assembled, and then package them and sell them? I would definitely order one! (I don't have the tools to make this but really want it!)
looks so sick will have to try this sometime. whats the wood you normally use in your projects normally (i forgot the name but it has the slight red tinge to it)?
Does storing your bike like this damage the fork seals ? seems like all that weight pulling on the stanchion could damage it over time
I can't wait for another subscriber trail!
I'm headed to check out the next possible location of the subscriber trail today!
@@BackyardTrailBuilds Epic, can't wait.
He should do more videos of his garage, he could hand make benches and stuff. Kinda like how Seth Alvo did on Berm Peak
What oak lumber did you use for the build? 8ft 2x6?
Whats good my man
10:00 I didn't see any, but you might want to add washers onto the bottom of the piping, so that the wood swivels on the washer and not on the wood base! If you want to save cash, use 2 plastic washers stacked on each other, cut out of a soda bottle.
Hi, can you show us the exact dimensions? Especially how high the vertical cutout must be. And how much distance do you have between 2 holders so that no bike is damaged?
Seths bike Racks
You have a dovetail jig and porter cable router but a hand brace instead of a cordless drill
Question!! What do you think it cost for all the material to make it? Awesome vid...
Great work. Only thing I would change is the width of the holding rails. Could be better to make them half inch or more wider. Would be a shame if they snapped from the weight of the bike after all your hard work. 👍
Any concerns on storing hikes vertically?
I have seen similar bike racks but have always wondered if this puts any pressure on the fork and bolts....leading to having to tighten them or check them each time.
I just built one of these, and it seems like all the weight is put on the tires. My assumption is if your oval cutouts are sized just larger than your tires, you would have the same situation, and no extra stress is put on other components. Remember, the bike bears your weight when normally riding, plus all of the extra force from drops/jumps. Bikes are plenty strong.
Isn’t there a problem with hanging vertically bikes with hydraulic brakes?
