  • Using nothing but scrap materials, I made a modern coat rack that looks super nice! I didn't want big coat hooks sticking out, so I figured out a cool mechanism that gives this piece some modern character. Come see how I did it so you can make one too!

    Superb design, looks very nice. I would probably add something as a backer for the lowered end of the hook piece so that someone dropping their coat onto the hook wouldn't jab the bottom of the hook through the drywall. Also if the plate is integral to the rack, it'd keep the coats from trying to push the rack off the wall.

  • @murphymmc
    @murphymmc 4 года назад +4

    Nice Bob, the only drawback I see is using the drywall as a stop for the hook. A heavy winter coat hung on the same hook ( we are creatures of habit) will eventually push in to the drywall a bit. Lightweight stuff, probably never an issue. A thin piece of sheet metal like a roof flashing material on the back would be an easy fix and never be seen as it would only need to be at the hook location. Just a thought.

    Total beginner when it comes to woodwork, carpentry, DIY etc but this is something I'd love to have a go at in the future. Got 3 questions
    1) do you do instructional videos?
    2) is there an alternative method of joining the blocks together or a different way to cut the dado?
    3) What's a good project for a beginner to start with? I'm thinking a mug tree or an even more basic coat rack.
    Many thanks :D

    Legitimate question: Something like this, to me, can be patented and can easily become a very sellable item with the correct distribution strategy and sales team. Do you not pursue these sorts of ventures because it doesn't make financial sense when your RUclips is doing so well and is possibly more enjoyable than a sales venture? Beautiful and simple design by the way!

      I don’t know how easily you can get patent for this. But I’ve seen 3 of the same design at container store in the last year so. But most likely it’s what you said, the cost benefit of making these to sell isn’t worth the opportunity cost. Especially when YT is doing so well.

    Cool hangar! The only thing I would change is to add a small, light weight spring behind the bottom of the hooks. Light enough so that it stays open when something light like a hat is hanging from the hook, but strong enough to push the hook back closed when nothing is hanging.

    @lynn858 Год назад

    No drill press workaround:
    Keeping deeper holes square is a nightmare without a drill press, and I don't want to build a rig, or buy guides. I don't need them enough.
    However... I could cut the wood pieces a bit long, drill the holes in each piece individually with a template. String them all on the dowel for alignment. Glue up. Then cut the ends flush. Any pieces where the hole ends up angled, can give it a try again through the other end, since the mistake will be hidden.
    This is a great option for the end of the hall where a hook sticking out with nothing hung on it would be easy to not notice and hurt myself on.
