Making frames out of broom handles
« on: April 17, 2011, 20:15 »
Can anyone help, I've accquired several broom handles that I want to make frames from to cover my veg beds but not quite sure the best way to attach each handle together, so that it will look like a table frame. Any suggestions please folks  :blush:

depends on thickness of the brooms but you might be able to use the corner joints off an old gazebo. I think theyre about 15mil

drill a hole through the ends and run a loop of stiff wire to make a joint.
