Home made hangers

Post by silverpigeon »

.

If you've ever tried to hang a jacket on the inside of a truck, you'll know just how not-very-far you get before it ends up on the floor.


I made these and stuck them to the inside of my canopy using solvent free PinkGrip

Now the truck can bounce around as much as it wants, and my stuff is exactly where I put it when I want it !

Image


There is one each side, each with 2 'hooks'.

They're made from 20mm nylon webbing, hot glued to 30x20 tanalised timbers, with reinforcing points either side of the hangers

Tony,

Clever idea, I will be looking into something similar on mine at a later stage. Thanks for the idea, I am sure there will be others here that will benefit from it as well.... :wink:

You want CAMO ?

Forget all that Mossy Oak stuff !

If you REALLY want to get close (either for shooting or photography) you need a ghillie suit !

Take ages to make, even if you're modifying a shop-bought one .....

...... but to see rabbits, foxes and a whole host of other things wander past without knowing you're there, they can't be beaten :D:

Also great for scaring the hell out of trick-or-treaters ...... and courting couples who "think" they're alone :P :P
