3. pass a string through each hole on the rod and board, such that the string connects the board to
the rod.
4. Tie a knot around each opening on the rod and the board so that the string stays in place.
SHIRT STOPS:
1. Cut two 1.5 inch segments from the excess wood dowel.
2. Cope (using the mill) one edge of each segment to match the curvature of the rod.
3. Measure 7 inches from one end of each rod. Drill a hole through the rod and into the the
segment. Screw each segment into the rod so that the shirt stop is facing the exterior.
4. See Figure 54 for what the shirt stops should look like.
Figure 54: Shirt stops
CROSS BAR:
1. Measure the distance between the 2 rods. Cope each edge as done earlier with the shirt stops.
Make sure both coped edges are in the same plane.
STRING HOOK:
1. Measure approximately an inch from the top of the board and mark this point
2. Measure 8 inches from one side of the boards such that the place where you measure will end up
in the middle of the 2 clamps on the top of the board.
3. Screw in the Hasp at the holes at the locations that were just measured.
4. Attach the latch onto the hasp using screws. See Figure 55.
