Organizing made cheap
Well, this is going to be my first post over here at tinyrc. I already belong to another rc forum and want to add this one to my list.
Here is something i made a while ago. It's made from card stock, skewers and hot glue.

Yes, it would be easier, but would'nt be as much fun nor as cheap. I only used some paper and skeweres for a total price of like 50 cents. You have to go to the store, using gas, which costs money, buy the organizer, and drive home using gas, unless you have a bike then it would be cheap too; you still have to buy the organizer though and it would definatly be more than 50 cents.....

You could use the time you save driving the ZipZaps and not storing them. Also we picked ours up for like $2-3.

Ah, timed saved verses hand made. The bane of the technological world. Handmade is always better and more satisfying. Shame we are forgetting that as a culture.
One day, after we are gone. Family will toss out all of those 3.00 time savers as the junk they are. But those handmade one of kinds, even if they are not the best quality, will be put on a shelf as memories of that person. It's the only real reason to make anything and get good at it. Objective immortality I say!
I'm not saying this storage rack will become a family heirloom, but I bet anyone that takes the time to make their own storage bin from scratch, makes all sorts of cool stuff.

Nicely said Azimov.
Anyways, it did take a while to make it, but probably the time it took you to go to the store and back.
It's still going strong! I've used this organizer a lot actually since I made it.
