    I am me,
    I am free,
    You can not change me.

    If you try, you will see,
    That I am unchangeable,
    Because I am me.

    ?!?

    sniper is waiting patiently to see what this is going to be...
    Give a man fire, and he'll be warm for a day!
    Light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life!

    If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.

    This is what she told me about it.

    I have been wanting something like this for a long time. The shelves I had just weren't holding enough and I had so much wasted space. Trying to keep things rotated and organized was driving me crazy. So... Hubby and I started brain storming and going over different ideas and things to use. I had drawn up the kind you see made out of plastic and we discussed making one out of wood, too pricey. As you can see in the back ground, we have tons of scrap this and that laying around. He grabbed a piece of PVC, went in and got a can of food, tried it, it fit! Then he took it to the miter saw and started cutting those little circles, laying them out and seen we needed 4 10' PVC pipes to make it 5' tall.


    They are so blessed with having a team like that, one who thinks it up and the other who knows how to make it work and build it. Every team group needs that.

    Generally, I like it! it is a great way to force rotation. But I can only see this for lesser used items, as it doesn't hold enough to be applicable to the main staples, unless multiple tubes were filled with the same thing.

    The other thing I REALLY like about it, is the accessibility to multiple things in a small space. Perhaps a modification to it, would be a pair of lazy suzans connected on a track, several feet apart, with a chain or belt drive system?

    .OOOOOOOOO.

    Sniper, it holds 96 cans, and we are planning on building two more this size so we have enough room for all products we eat. Also going to make one with 4" pipe for pie filling size cans. We are currently working on a wooden one made totally from scrap wood we had laying around hope to finish it this week end. It is too complicated to explain, but I will post finished pictures.

    Also, we learned some things about this one, so our next one will be even better. (We are famous for our prototypes) Some of you know us, HD was Tinkerman on another site.

    Thanks TazBaby,this had to take you FOREVER to post.
