Stand of the pegs. Nice and simple

Something after the construction work on the finer drawn. I remembered seen somehow crafts from clothespins and decided to make a pleasant - to start podstavochku under the cupBut, as it turned out it is great for cups and a pot will even under the not very large pot just right.

Much to his surprise, found in our part of wooden clothespins - not a weak issue.

Sellers have complained that the goods are brought out of a bad defective wood clothespins often split, that's no longer ordered.

I walked somewhere 5-6 households. stores until fall for the eyes bamboo pegsChinese likely. Although they are smaller than conventional wood, he decided to experiment on such. According to the structure of bamboo and denser, more like as something opened, since the surface of clothespins little shiny, but perhaps it only seems.

One set of 20 pegs recalculated from the hryvnia worth 30 rubles. It took just three such as the plan then something else glue. How to make sure to show.

Vskidku thought to stand require less than 20 units. To dismantle 16 pegs and glue each pair of backs, causing PVA glue. Complete drying did not wait, and divided the entire collection of 4 pieces and then poskleival oblique surfaces in 4 separate segment (Photo 3).

When the glue is a little grabPrepared part of started to stick together. It turned out that the whole still lacks 3 clothespins. In general, turned a full circle stand to collect from 19 pieces of clothespins. Diameter podstavochki left almost 15 cm, which, it must be said, is not enough. Less thought out, but so, too bad.

Bamboo absorbs the glue is not as hard as normal wood and it was good, only half smeared with pegs slide over each other for a while.

The hardest thing was to align the edge of the pegs so that they formed inside the right circle. Pins, you know, a little bit different in size, even half a little different, so I had to tinker a bit.

It is also important not to overdo it with glue, as it stechot down and assembled pedestal is glued to the surface.

Cup set to align pegs in the plane during drying. In the meantime, the design passes the final manufacturing stage, I am writing this post. As it will be ready, I take off a short video and fasten here.
