When making a hanger with your own hands from wood, the surface of the board you use must be treated with a blowtorch. If it is not, the board can be burned over the burner. In this case, you must be careful not to injure your hands.
The blank must be attached to the wall. There are several ways to do this. You can attach the “ears” to the back of the board by drilling several holes for fastening, or fix the resulting workpiece to the wall.
The hooks must be secured with screws. Such a hanger will look better if hooks decorated with antique are attached to it. The design will look more spacious if you select a triple hook.
Floor Tools

Floor hanger manufacturing procedure
When working on the lower part, you should first make a cross. The bars for the rack-hanger must be cut in half and treated with sandpaper to remove burrs. After that, they should be connected at an angle of 90 degrees.
To make the connection more tight, use the chisel to select the recesses near the elements of the cross throughout the bar. By connecting these areas, you can see that they are fixed motionless. After that, using the fitting, you need to cut out the supports of the product and screw them with screws.
Before screwing in, drill a hole so that small cracks do not appear on the wood, reducing its service life. The diameter of the screw should be larger than the diameter of the drill. Screw in the screw only after the holes are filled with glue.
In the manufacture of the upper part, the following point must be taken into account: it is better not to attach the hooks to the barrel, but first mount them on a small square. Alternatively, you can step back a little from the top and attach the bars to the trunk.
