Great atty stand for less than a pound!

[feldy]

Hey everyone, thought it was about time that I contributed to this great forum instead of lurking in the background and just feeding off your fantastic vaping knowledge. 

Anyway, you are all probably wondering how you get a atty stand for less than a pound!?.....Well, the other week I stumbled across this.....



Found it in my local 99p store! Think it is meant to be used in your garden to put bamboo through and support plants. However, the moment I saw it I was wondering whether my atty collection would fit. With a strange look from my girlfriend I bought it (we don't really have a garden) and now I have this.....



I think it works pretty well, all my attys fit perfectly in it and it almost feels like it was made for it.

I know it's just a plastic bamboo thingy majig but if your on a budget and are looking for something to keep you attys in I highly recommend you pop into you local pound shop or I'm sure most garden centres will have them and find yourself one of these.

That is a great find !!!!

here`s one delivered for an extra pound if you can`t get to a shop:

for that price if it doesn`t suit, you can just throw it away.....or even support some bamboo canes

I`ve just ordered one to try out, I won`t even see it if it`s on the higher shelf - but all my tanks etc are rolling around in a box at the moment.

Why thank you Kaaru. Just saw it and thought it would be great and it is! lol.
Good find on the ebay link. I imagine these are pretty easy to get hold.

Nice find and inventive cross purpose use..Need to get one..

[richvapers]

Very nice find feldy, and also available at Amazon, two for £2.34 including delivery.

And no reason why these cant be sprayed in any colour you want.
The simple things are always the best

Cheers Rick

Thanks Rick...yup simple is best and generally cheaper.
Good idea about painting them...hadn't even crossed my mind!

[GunJack]

if you paint them, though, the paint'll end up flaking off onto the attys and that would never do

[kailey]

Great find and a wonderful idea. Must get myself one of those too.

Can hold up to 12 attys, great find

feldy Welcome.

Lurk no more, a great find, looking forwards to your next postings.

Nice atty collection.

Happy vaping.

Thanks guys. It's great for what it is. Though if you do get one I recommend putting some paper towel underneath it as you always get a bit leakage and it saves getting you shelf top all sticky with e liquid.
And thanks jeffc, it is very pretty and shiny isn't it.

I bought the two from Amazon on the link provided by richvapers and sprayed them black using Black Hycote Bumper & Vinyl Double Acrylic Paint.

Been using one of them for a few days and no cracking or flaking as yet.

Cheers for the heads up feldy, they do the job nicely.

[Kaaru]

Fine bit of black there MarkS....it`s not going to come off unless you start wiggling it about.

[richvapers]

Very nice spray job their MarkS, looks good.

My two should be here this week, and i may have plans to make two of these into a mod stand if pos.
will see how it goes.
