last day before His Lordship hits 40. Much hilarity and old fart jokes.
BUT i did build an assistive frame for his ADHD brain (his spatial awareness ranks somewhere around a golden retriever puppy), as he's planning out the rail spacing for our pull out drawer clothesline. bit of 3D printing, bit of t-track and voila, he's got a solid three dimensional frame to play with, including full slide capabilities.
behold
Ikea cushion peg very much there to clarify, we want to be able to keep the pegs on the front pole, and they slide up when we put it away. So the pole placement needs to be calculated to accommodate the peg swing. T track is same height as the mid point on the drawer sides, the 700x350s are the same ones I'm using as height spacers for the slides. He just could not wrap his head around it last night, so I made up a mini system so he can slide them around and adjust, then just measure from the front to the pole when he's happy
Give his lordship a big happy b'day from the DT.
I shall!
Yay! Seconded! 🥳
Wow! Don't let ikea see this - just too useful.
that's just a shitty mini mockup, but yeah, a pull out drying rack shall be ours! Somewhere to toss our pants and towels when it's pissing outside
