One could stretch a line or two and hang them from it so that they can dry from all sides. This way you could put it in an out of the normal walk way area and continue on. Thanks for sharing these with us. DW I don't do nearly that many at once, but I use a line with slip knots tired every so far and bend paperclips to use as hangers. Works great. I should say that I use mason's twine which is cheap and easy to work with. I have used fishing line for some longer runs, but it is not as flexible as the twine.

I got the idea from this video although this guy uses the guttering for applying his finish. Rob This was in my thinking when I was given the idea of hanging them.. since I really not interested in finishing my floor and surrounding areas.. a gutter or drip pan of some sort would be a must have.. Thank you for sharing the info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck on your sales. Thank you! you'd be surprised at how fast one can build up some inventory on the ornaments by stack cutting etc..

If I was you all... I'd start stock piling lumber.. won't be too long and we'll have a shortage of Poplar and Cherry.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
