You Need This! (Probably) | Mobile Clamp Wall

This article was originally posted on The Wood Whisperer.
Summary
The Wood Whisperer demonstrates a weekend build for a mobile clamp wall that organizes 54 parallel clamps, 14 F‑style clamps, and 16 pipe/bar clamps on a rolling rack with pegboard sides. Using home-center materials, he covers cutting outriggers, gluing angled supports, planning clamp layouts, and installing heavy-duty shelf brackets; plans and hardware links are included, plus a reference to a wall-mounted alternative.

Question: Would a mobile cart or a wall-mounted rack suit your shop better, and how many clamps would you design it to hold?

Let’s face it—there’s no such thing as too many clamps. But finding a place to put them all? That’s the real challenge. In this project, I build a mobile clamp wall that holds 54 parallel clamps, 14 F-style clamps, and 16 pipe/bar clamps—with room to grow. It also features pegboard sides for bonus storage and rolls smoothly around the shop on heavy-duty casters.

The build was done in a weekend using home center materials, with inspiration from Becca from Southern Pine Design. I walk through every step, from cutting outriggers and gluing angled supports to planning clamp layouts and adding shelf brackets strong enough to hold a small car, or at least a ridiculous number of clamps.

This mobile clamp wall is part practical shop upgrade, part excuse to use the phrase “show you my rack” without getting banned from YouTube. If your clamp collection is outgrowing your wall space, or you just want a fun and functional weekend project, this rolling clamp wall might be just what your shop needs.
