okay I'm going to try and explain what I did to my stand...
Dis is what happened.
I didn't really like how the legs were free to slip around if they so choose to. So I brought my stand with me to my mums house a few weeks ago, and when my grandpa showed up(they live in my parents back yard in the summer... weird I know) we got talking about it and this is what he came up with.
He used a biscuit cutter on the dowels at first we thought that he would need a cut on the thirds of the dowel... but we botched that and it was actually on the 6ths(You'll see the mistake in a few pictures...
then we cut some slots into 3 smaller dowels and glued some biscuits into them
then we let it dry for a few hours and I made a whoopie sling type thing to keep the dowels from sliding apart.
All of the dowels are interchangeable and come out easily. It feels much sturdier on a slick floor
I'm lovin it. Feel free to ask questions because I know this doesn't make tons of sense, my brain just isn't working right now...
