Building a machine shop workbench with steel storage rack

I use a pvc pipe 6" dia. X 12' + long with couplers and screw in caps mounted in u straps bolted or lagged to the shop wall out back it's amazing how much steel will fit inside easily. I buy full lengths and have the cut usually in half . They're easier to transport and store. Just adding this as an option to indoor storage . They don't rust in there either surprisingly.
 
I've seen it done with PVC pipe, sheetrock tubing, steel racks, but i don't have need, my machine shop hasn't got length to fit full size length material, plus the steel store sales material in meters and centimeters, so i buy only as much as i need and the steel store is 4 km from me.
