  • HiLo Clothes Dryer
    Created Date: 2015-06-06 / updated date: 2015-06-22
    Steps: 2 / Memos: 7
    Inspired by a great hanging dryer, but put off by high cost and long distance shipping, I decided to make my own, low-budget version. There are components that could be higher quality, and prices are indicative only - it depends what your local suppliers have available for you. I got most of the components from Bunnings and Pete’s Emporium in Porirua (NZ). I also decided to do something Low Tech instead of designing with digital fabrication in mind. Some simple tools and you're away with this project. Take as much time as you want to. I made this over two weekends, not rushing, and in between other activities. But I don’t have to tidy up if I don’t feel like it... Fineprint: All measurements are in millimetres unless otherwise stated. All attempts have been made to keep jargon to a minimum. ‘Usual’ in New Zealand may not be ‘usual’ globally. Do everything safely. The instruction pages are in the Memo section, not the Recipe section.
