This is an old trick to organize pieces for painting and hold them until assembly. My parts rack is two pieces of 2″ x 8″ lumber stacked and drilled with numerous holes. (Pieces of 2″ x 4″ or 2″ x 6″ would work fine, too.) You can use scrap wood and drill the holes to your liking, making it thoroughly adaptable to your building style and virtually cost-free.
