Here's a picture of a quilt (wall) hanger I made for my wife for her
birthday this month. It's made of 3/4 in. stock, 5 ft long x 2 in wide and consists of two boards that are clamped together to pinch and hold the edge of the quilt. The inside of the boards have a 1/2 in. wide x 1/8 in. deep groove just up from the lower edge about 3/16 of an inch to catch and hold the quilt edge. The knobs are face turned and have small hanger bolts screwed into them with the other end screwing into T-nuts recessed in the back of the board. The hanger attaches to the wall with key hole slots. This one is made out of Bird's eye maple with cherry wood knobs.. Hard to tell from picture.. Maybe should have popped the grain a little.. |

Nice.. Artsy.. Let your creativity go.. kind of project From appearance
looks like you had fun building with all the joint work.. My wife now wants what appears to be a (quilt) ladder for the next one.. Of course there are many other honey do's lined up.. At present, deep into crown molding, new baseboard molding, new window and door trim, built-in bookcases, fireplace mantel and recessed lighting in living room.. So ladder will have to wait.. Thanks for sharing.. "RonB" wrote in message ... "mapdude" wrote in message . .. I did one too.... Me to, but kinda wierd by conventional standards. RonB |

Nice.. Work in progress.. I have a very similar (portable) workbench..
Much easier to move around than one of those heavy hardwood jobs with all the vices, etc. Give me a handfull of clamps and I'm good.. "mapdude" wrote in message . .. I did one too.... |

Actually the joint work was much easier than I anticipated. I build some
hardwood rocking horses to that have about 100 parts in them. Folks look at the quilt (afghan) stand and think it is super complex. It takes 60 hours to put a horse together. The stand can be done in a weekend; and a lot of that is waiting for glue. RonB "Jim Hall" wrote in message ... Nice.. Artsy..
