In reply to: Someone broke into my truck in Joshua Tree over the New Years holiday. I had most of my rack in the back, other than specialized wall gear. -Kate.
ugh, that's terrible...
I would cry for a few days straight if I had ANY gear stolen
I can't even imagine a whole rack.
with all these stories of stolen racks I think I'm going to start
hiding all my gear in the spare tire spot in my trunk.

Wooo Hooo! Thank you Tradrenn!
That is the rack that was stolen, minus about 20 cams and a set of nuts. If they sell it peice by peice on ebay it will take a lifetime.
If you look closely at the alien that is sticking out of the computer drive, it looks like there is a dimple! Is this true?

You're welcome.

Can one insure a rack ?

Jeez, tradrenn,
You're making me look bad. A tipped out black alien and cams that lost their colour coding.

better??? the flash made my shiny unused gear look even shinier and more unused.

sorry to hear about your rack. Did you get compensated through insurance?
And that alien doesn't have a dimple! stamped 1102. would you like it? 35 bucks. place less than 10 times (more likely around 5). anyone?
Best

I am working with the insurance company now. Because I was away from home they only want to cover a portion of it. Luckilly, I have a really good string of work right now, so I can replace it while I wait.
At the end of the day, I have a much lighter, newer rack now, whether or not I get reimbursed, and I have a job to pay for the new stuff.
Everything happens for a reason, who knows why, but it was time for me to have a new rack, I guess.
-Kate.

a zero or a ballnut would likely fit.
but remember, the smallest 2 zeros are body weight only.

I have been avoiding this thread for a while because I didn't have a rack for a long time. I should post a pic ASAP I wonder if we could get a rack growth over time for some users.
Myself, I started with nothing, but now I am up to a rack to head up most walls. If I get into aid in a couple of years, then I will have to get about 5 times the gear. I will have to repost then.

In reply to: Can one insure a rack?
In general, yes. It sounds like Kate is having some trouble with her insurance company, but many renter or homeowner insurance policies cover personal property in the event of theft, etc.
Some general information can be found on About.com. As always, it pays to carefully review your particular policy.
