I purchased plastic board holder on line years ago. Over the years times broke off of almost all of them. I considered making a new rack out of pvc but decide to go with wood instead. Specifically two 2”x4”s, 20’ of 1” dowel, 20’ of pipe insulation with a 1” I’d , four lag bolts and two cans of spray paint: here is what the result looks like. 9C00E5F7-0B6F-401B-820B-596617EAC69F.jpeg
Edit: here is a pic of some of the racks I replaced.

Here is one of a close up of the new rack, well one of the tines at least. There are 14 of them and only vary in length.

Much more elegant than my Home Depot solution

Actually I like your solution (i was going to type “rack” but that would have been weird). Looks like a lot less cutting and drilling. Funny you should mention it I got all of my materials from Home Depot as well.
