By Chrisjob
"You gotta just love when something really old gets revamped with a modern twist...Little to no detail has been provided about the conceptual project, but based on the pics I’m gonna say it is actually functioning. Placing the pencil on the sensor will provide a digital readout of that point’s length and to give it that authentic ruler feel they’ve added a transparent wood facade."
I'm in awe....

By ModHomeEcTeacher
Oftentimes it's quite simple to improve on an old idea. This DIY Hangable Hamper took me two hours, tops, to design and complete.

what you need:
sewing machine
1 yard remnant or new fabric
large wooden mat
