A robust, freestanding wooden dish drying station designed for superior stability and efficient batch production. At 36 inches tall, this unit offers significant vertical storage, replacing a conventional countertop rack with a more permanent, furniture-grade solution. The design features a dedicated upper rack with dowels for plates, a versatile middle shelf for bowls and glasses, and a solid bottom shelf. Stability is guaranteed by a fully captured back panel set into rabbets, eliminating any side-to-side racking common in other designs. The plan utilizes strong, repeatable dado joinery, making it ideal for a small production workshop. An optional hanging utensil caddy adds to its utility.
