Hobby Room Re-purpose

Postby up148 » Mon Nov 22, 2021 11:46 am

Wife got a new cabinet to store her sewing thread in and asked if I wanted this. Can't think of a use in the hobby room, but don't like to throw anything out. We don't need a key ring hanger. Suggestions?

What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. It also gives you a lot of unhealthy coping mechanisms, trust issues, and a dark sense of humor.

Not too far off from a Plinko game.

A few minor modifications required, lol.

Oddly, I almost have a use for that, with a tiny bit of modification; notice that I said almost! :mrgreen:

You can always pop out the dowels and drill the holes through, then hang it off the ceiling over the workbench using cup-hooks and lamp-chain. Chuck your screwdrivers in, and they stay organised and easy to find rather than piled in a drawer.
