Abstract
A storage rack which may be attached to a support surface, such as a wall, so that one or more objects may be placed upon the rack to be stored upon the wall. The storage rack has a compact base with two or more pairs of peg holes, and two or more pegs that may be inserted into any selected pair of the holes. Objects to be stored are placed on and between the inserted pegs. The holes and pegs are threaded so that the pegs can be securely screwed into the holes. The peg holes may be at an upward angle in the base, and the pegs may be provided with irregular or scalloped surfaces better to hang items securely thereon, or with hooks or eyelets to improve their reliability and versatility. Peg segments may be connected in series to adjust the functional length of a particular peg.
