I needed to make a stand for a tall mirror for my gf who is doing a sale tomorrow and needs people to be able to stand in front of a mirror. Had to do it with bits and scraps I had lying around, and I didn’t have a long bolt suitable for the hinge so I just used an old door hinge. Worked fine. Not a piece of art but very functional and doesn’t look bad.

Kory,

A drill press would probably make this task easier and more fool proof! If you make some, please let me know how they turn out. I still use mine each year at my craft show.

It seems so simple. Why did it not work as well? I mean, it seems like maybe it wouldn’t work, but that way I could just throw it on a drill press with the middle piece. Not sure if the holes would line up once you flip it around though. Was this the issue?

I had to create two to hold a display that was wide rather than tall. I also added a chain to keep the back leg from going back farther than wanted.

Experienced woodworkers would first make a “jig” that allows you to hold (by clamping to other wood) the piece to be cut so safety is not compromised.

And…kickback scares the daylights out of me, too!
