My best advice is to get out the skillsaw and a sander and make your own. Talk to @Philpug I think he has a whole wall of homemade.

Yeah, speaking of https://www.buttonskirack.com/, I think I happened upon the explanation for what happened to Hang Em Right here: https://www.casemine.com/judgement/us/5b99e054342cca319d1fc47c

I had bought just a couple Hangem Rights (still haven't put them up yet), with the intention of trying a couple Totti buttons as well, but am now finding that prospect a bit distasteful, despite still wanting a couple more hangers. Don't hate the player hate the game I guess folks would say, but still.

(Suppose I should try to avoid politico-economic debate on a subject matter forum like Pugski and not go into my opinion on the value of patents like for this ski hanger.. The obvious result of such laborious and highly technical development, the benefit of which society clearly would never have received without providing the incentive of legal force against any competition. Or something. Apparently.)

I found that a few day ago and was going to post it but never got around to it.

Too late. ;)

A patent is a patent and if I took the effort to create something I would want to protect it be it something that was the artificial appendix or a better mouse trap. Who's to say where the line should be drawn. Right, @The Dad ? our resident patent lawyer. What to me is sad is the Hangemright was indeed a better mousetrap. I always had it in the back of my mind to design and market my concept and I am now glad that I didn't put forth the effort and just will share our design.

Looking at doing something similar after finding this thread. Looks like you used 2x2 for the rail and 1x4 for the hangers?
2x3 for the rail, 1x3 for the cleats.
