Great instructable JJ, thanks for sharing. I was thinking of making something like this to replace an existing bathroom radiator. question, can you post a link to the hooks shown in the picture ( towel hanging from ). That was one of the items I have been thinking about.. do i make towel loops of copper? short perpendicular stubs of capped copper? hooks? thanks!
- kenbob commented on Garage Avenger's instructable Lazy Susan 2.0 (Sushi Train)View Instructable »
omg, love this! I am a big fan of the lazy Susan,, and not just so i don't have to talk to my table mates ;) This is a super creative and fun solution to the non perfect size table problem. Oh, and great instructable. Thanks for sharing! Now i am thinking of how it could be done in a "configurable" path - like model railroad track. hmmm, adding this to my list!

@way77, short anser,, i copied the dimensions from articles i found online,, not really sure what happens if you go bigger, or how a better conductor would work. I would think you could use stiff copper wire like 12G and get similar results. As to the cross overs, all the designs i found had that pattern with four Vs on each side with a pattern of left right right left and the opposite. The crossover points are insulated from each other.

- kenbob commented on diymontreal's instructable How to Cut Hexagons Any SizeView Instructable »
Love this, great instructable. Thanks for sharing. One question, why not use your newly created jig to cut the angles on your stop block. It should be perfect and already set to the correct angle. :)

- kenbob commented on kenbob's instructable Garden Steel Pergola - for Kiwi and GrapeView Instructable »
That is a great, and reasonable question. I really don't remember the details. I only purchased the 1x2 box steel, and paint. I did buy expensive primer and paint - it has held up very well. vague memory , about $100 on steel and $100 on paint. I am not counting welding wire, gas, scrap steel, concrete, etc. - If i did it again i would use heavier steel , at least for the legs, then i could put up a hammock :)

It could,, if you can find someone to do the custom design. all of the parts are in the plane of the door so it could be made to close against "weather stripping".
