Spare Tire Strap Rack DIY Fabricated

Yes this is essentially a knock-off of any of the commercially available solutions, but those also come with the "stupid tax" applied and at the end of the day, I was able to pull this off at a price point that is commensurate with what these really are; a couple ratchet straps and some scrap iron:

I too love to fabricate things. Great job!

If you have the time, the proper tools, and materials are available, I find it quite rewarding and satisfying.

Now, that said, if you had to build those and make a living solely based on that work, how much would you have had to charge for it?

Nice job! Looks very clean!

Nice. Size of the scrape metal used?

Nicely done!
May I suggest you swap the tank and shovel so you can actually open your tailgate…
