Instructions On Build A Mobile Clothes Rack

PVC pipe is often used for clothing racks.


Organize wardrobes and wheel them from closet to closet with a mobile clothes rack. Make a simple mobile clothes rack using PVC pipe. Connect the pipes together using various PVC joints and PVC glue. Mount a set of wheels to the bottom of the clothes rack for mobility. Clothing racks like this are not complicated or time-consuming to build. They will not require more than a couple hours spent in a workshop. Does this Spark an idea?


Instructions


1. Glue one end of each 14-inch pipe into the top two holes of two T-joints. Glue an 8-inch pipe into the base hole of each T-joint and glue the other end of the 8-inch pipes into the top holes of the last two T-joints. Position the base hole of the T-joints at right angles to the aligned 14-inch pipes.


2. Glue each end of one 60-inch pipe into the base holes of the two T-joints. This connects the feet to your clothes rack. Glue the 50-inch pipes into the two open holes left by the two T-joints.


3. Insert the ends of the last 60-inch pipe into the elbows. Position the elbows so they bend in the same direction. Glue the elbows on the 60-inch pipe in this position.


4. Glue the ends of the 50-inch pipes into the elbows. This is the top of your clothes rack where you will hang clothes from.


5. Drill a 1/4-inch hole through each 14-inch pipe. Position each hole 1 inch away from the ends of the pipe that are not glued in the T-joints so the holes are parallel with the 50-inch pipes.


6. Insert the caster on the wheels through the 1/4-inch holes so they're on the bottom of the rack, and screw a nut on each caster. Tighten the nuts using your wrench.
