Abstract
A disassemblable pallet or dry rack for supporting spherical objects, such as golf balls, during painting or coating. The rack includes a base, having a series of radially aligned perforations, and at least three elongate prongs having horizontal leg portions extensible through the perforations in the base and shank portions extending vertically above the base, so as to present at least three prongs engageable with the spherical surface. The rack may be used, also, for suspending the golf ball in an inverted position during "dip" painting or coating and in an upright position for drying.
