What'S good world it's your boy, rick smith, aka, ammo, dad and today i'm gon na be showing y'all how to build a 10 braiding rack stay tuned. What'S good, thank y'all for stopping through today on hood home improvement, we're going to be making a 10 branding wrap. You heard right ten dollar bread and wrap got everything from the dollar tree. The dollar 25 tree. We'Re not gon na need any big tools, any fancy setup. Once this thing is done, you'll be able to do your braids. Uh. Hang your stuff on there put some material on this rack and we paid about ten, maybe eleven dollars for anything so come on over here to the table, so i'm gon na show y'all what we need. Okay, all we're gon na need is. This is the only tool that we're gon na need because we're gon na need to cut the yarn, but other than that we got everything from the dollar tree. We got uh these small little pegboards here, 1.25, a piece, so that's five bucks before them. We got this yard 1.25. That'S 625. We got this little shelf dollar. 25. That'S 750! We got two pegboard hooks. That'S two figures: that'll take us to ten dollars right there and we got us some accessories. You don't have to get these, but we got us some custom cup holders and some little small square shaped peg holders, just in case we didn't have enough material, but just for the sake of keeping that ten dollars we're gon na put this stuff over there. Nah all righty um, so we got our four peg boards here now what we came up with my wife and i we're gon na cut these yarn pieces and we're gon na cut this yarn into pieces about like that long about about six to eight inches. So we can cut enough of these to connect all the peg boards together. So this is gon na serve as our stability and our structure. So i'm gon na go ahead and cut a bunch of them. I'M gon na try to fill each corner up with support yarn man. I want to use some tools, so bad man, you know i could have just cut these things down and made them into um and made them so they fit into each other and locked into each other. But i'm gon na show y'all that i got skills to pay the bills, all right, so we're gon na start with those. Now i'm gon na thread them through on the outside. I mean i'm they're gon na be on the outside, so thread them through the inside. Like so, they got some little grooves in them. I just seen so i'm gon na connect the grooves together and then they're gon na kind of interlock with each other, and i'm gon na still turn them up there. We go so y'all kind of lock in here. Tie this up real good y'all know i was a boy scout too, so i and make it so long everything look real clean. I became the guy like the perfect size, so i should give me a little piece of table, so you got. Some tape misses locked down, bam. Okay, so now we got this right here. No, we ain't gon na get no tape. No that's cheating tape is cheating. I talked one two. I said we're gon na make this with one two we're trying to cheat with that tape. This is one two one, two one two, that's it all right now we got so essentially what we gon na do is i'm gon na go through every hole, you know so a support, but i was just trying to you know, say the gist of what i Was gon na? Do you like that? Then you, like you, you like that, did you you like? Oh that's what he was babbling about. I know okay and then you don't want to time too tight because they got to be uh unfolded out. So once that unfolds out just you know, just tighten it down perfectly off all right. So what we did was we just pretty much fed the yarn through the back of the peg boards and tied them up and knots at the top. We got four of them left together. So what's gon na happen, is it's gon na make a box now? What we do is we retire last um yarn at the top and the bottom you're just gon na complete the square. So now you have a free standing and it's pretty sturdy too not to mention this - our this our first run on this. So you know - and it's actually pretty sturdy - get that like that. So that's what you got to watch! I'M gon na try to keep this video as raw as possible. So you see the look for so you kind of want to if you're doing it by yourself be mindful that it may uh it make bounce back, and if you got somebody with you, they can hold it square, but actually i'm just gon na tie this up Tie this up uh now you know if you want to store it or take it apart. I wouldn't recommend threading yarn all the way to the bottom, probably three, three at the most one, with the top one, the bottom and one in the middle, and then you can take it down for easy transportation all right. So now you got your box pretty sturdy. Gon na take your hooks all right now we got our pegs here. This is the magic we're gon na. Take our pegs and they're gon na lock right in like this, and if you want to get fancy, you can run pegs from the top to the bottom. What we gon na do run just like this um like that we'll get about three o'clock. We can. We can squeeze another one in there, but we really don't have to all right. You see how that move, and it was still pretty sturdy, just hit something up. Like that right there, then, since we have a couple extras, left and go ahead and run two on the end, so it's all right. Oh there's, one more left. Okay, so now we got our rack filled up. We got a shelf for for your products. We can put the shelf on the side on the back anywhere. You want to go so now you got this hooked up like this. You got your rack. Take your hair. This is this. Is my hair i'm going to take our hair when you're doing those breaks and you're just gon na drag it across each one and there you have it. Let me give me a couple more pieces of here. You can hang it off the edge of the table like that, got some hair on there. Okay, so there you have it, you got nice sturdy stand. We got our cones our scissors, a couple of tools over here for working. We got our strands of hair, that's going to hang if you want, if you're actually going to be braiding with it, and we got our product over here so and um. This is set up for travel, but if you want to make it more sturdy pop a couple screws in it use some glue uh anything that'll make it here together and it's and it's a pretty solid tool to use um i mean to make your job go Faster pretty clean and at the end of the day, 10 bucks got a nice sturdy tool. There. You have it in this episode. We make no dust y'all, we got a nice handy, compact tool, 10 bucks or less. If you got some yarn in your house, it'll take you down to about.
