I love this material because you can build endlessly with it. I've made embroidery frames, a niddy noddy, several tapestry looms, all from the same basic bits and connectors. Since I can easily reassemble them into what I need,they can shape shift at will.
Here I deconstructed parts of a tapestry loom to get the members, and searched my bag of connectors and was able to create a hanger system for cardigans, now installed in the right closet.
I still have a couple of 8ft pipes which I can cut down to complete the base of this gizmo, to make it more stable, and make another for other sweaters.
This came about as I was wondering about buying a rack like the handy pants rack I bought a while ago. But I thought it would be more fun to just assemble one and see how it works. No tools needed.
No lights in the closet where it's set up, so I did the pic where I built it.
Rube Goldberg would be proud.
isn't this a wonderful invention? The best part of this stuff is, it doesn't rot, or rust, and it lasts forever. And when you weary of it as a rack, you can disassemble it and hide it in a box somewhere.
ReplyDeleteOr maybe I'll reassemble it as a bicycle when the weather improves..
ReplyDeleteI do love that these pipes and connectors are so versatile. :) This is really clever.
ReplyDeleteI bless the day I was looking for a cheap curtain rail for a massive patio door, big enough that conventional railings were too short, and a custom one was $$$. I thought of PVC pipe and my life was transformed. I think you can fix anything with PVC pipe, aspirin or pachysandra!
ReplyDeletecan tell you're an artist. Creativity in all realms!
ReplyDeleteAren't you nice. I hope we'll see you soon at hickory corner. The group's doing well.
ReplyDeleteSmart lady! Know what you need/want, put it together yourself.
ReplyDeleteThank you. When I need something my first thought is always how can I make it, rather than where can I buy it. Sometimes with comic results.
ReplyDeletePerhaps you should patent this one!
ReplyDeleteGosh, I shouldn't have published the top secret photo of it in action! Too late smart.
