🌀 How We Built the Ultimate Rotating Display Rack for Craft Shows

🌀 How We Built the Ultimate Rotating Display Rack for Craft Shows

Perfect for Ornaments, Stickers, Keychains, Magnets, and More

If you’ve ever stood in your craft booth thinking, "Where the heck am I supposed to put all these small items?"—you are not alone. That’s exactly where we found ourselves… until we built the Rotating Display Rack, our latest laser cut portable pegboard organizer designed specifically for craft show sellers like you.

This DIY display stand is laser cuttable, portable, highly customizable, and it spins. It’s the ultimate small product display solution for makers, crafters, and laser business owners looking to level up their booth game.


đź’ˇ Why We Created This Pegboard Rack

During a Master It Tier Patreon call, someone asked if we had a rotating ornament display stand. We didn’t—yet. But we did have a lazy Susan, a pile of ornaments, and a need for a versatile display that could break down flat, rotate on a dime, and hold more than just one product type.

Our mission was clear
✔️ Use only Illustrator and LightBurn—no fancy 3D software
✔️ Build something that assembles fast with quick slots
✔️ Make it modular and customizable
✔️ Test every hook, shelf, bin, and divider
✔️ Fit it all on a small table with a Lazy Susan base


🔨 Features of the Rotating Display Rack

This rotating pegboard display rack for craft shows checks every box for vendors who want more space, better organization, and a more professional booth setup:

  • 360 degree rotation using a 12 inch Lazy Susan (shoutout to Little Sue)

  • Pegboard panels with offset hole patterns for flexible hook placement

  • Interchangeable shelves, bins, and dividers to fit your product line

  • Double sided sign topper for booth branding or promo messaging

  • Quick connect tab system for easy assembly and teardown

  • Compact footprint perfect for 4 foot and 6 foot craft show tables

  • Designed for laser cutting with 1/4 inch MDF or plywood

  • Works with xTool, Glowforge, Aeon, Thunder, OMTech, and other CO2 lasers


đź§  The Design Process

We started sketching out ideas with basic shapes in Illustrator, using color-coded layers for tabs, slots, holes, and guides. Everything was tested step by step—starting with quick connections, slot spacing, and hook fitment before jumping into full-sized prototypes.

We made a few classic mistakes
đź§© First prototype was too big. Big Sue (our original Lazy Susan) took up half the table
🎯 We had to scale it down, redesign the base, and adjust tab sizing for painted or stained material
🛠️ Then we cut and tested every accessory—hooks, dividers, cubbies, and shelves

The final result is a fully modular, rotating booth display you can cut yourself or buy as a flat-packed kit.


đź’» Who This Display Rack Is For

This portable pegboard organizer is ideal for

  • Laser crafters selling at vendor markets or pop-up events

  • Makers who want a professional, branded display for small items

  • DIY business owners who want an affordable alternative to expensive displays

  • Craft show vendors who need to make the most of their vertical space

Whether you’re displaying engraved ornaments, printed magnets, acrylic keychains, or sticker packs, this stand gives you the flexibility and space to organize your products beautifully.
