    Abstract: A rack for drying or curing items can be disassembled for storage or transportation. The rack includes a pair of rack units, each rack unit including a base, an upright and a series of elongated members, or poles, on which the items can be supported above the generally flat surface on which the unit rests. The base includes three legs that engage the flat surface. The series of poles is supported by the upright. The upright is hollow and can be used to store the poles and base legs. A cap is provided to close the upright to keep out moisture and dirt when the rack is in use, and to ensure that the poles and base legs remain in the upright, and are protected, during transportation or storage of the unit.
