Abstract
A drying center comprises a cabinet and a drop board pivotally secured to the cabinet and movable between a dropped position wherein the board is substantially horizontal and a raised position wherein the board is substantially vertical. The drop board defines a plenum and in the dropped position has an upper surface defining a plurality of spaced apertures in gaseous communication with the plenum. The center further includes an air source for blowing dry air, a connector for selectively operatively connecting and disconnecting the air source and the plenum, and supports normally disposed within the cabinet for supporting objects to be dried over the apertures when the board is in the dropped position.
