next time you have a lot of finished pieces to let dry try using kid's playing jacks as spacers instead of painter's pyramids..

cheap and w/ their ball ends less prone to dimples and piercing...
very useful when you are applying finishes to your pieces horizontally too...

    For those that have scrap wood around, but not jacks -- http://www.woodworkersjournal.com/making-finishing-pyramids-scrap/

    That's how I made mine.

     

    Also took my pneumatic finish nailer and shot a bunch of nails thru a scrap of 1/2" plywood. Set it nail points up. Rest the finished piece on the nail points.

    This is a jig I made to stain and finish table legs (which I remove from the table via the bolts and corner blocks)
