Tape holder shelf, and prototyping

This video is about making an organizer rack for assorted rolls of adhesive tape. It is constructed using 3/4" plywood and PVC.

If you don't have an extra spade bit to mod, you can still make this using a standard 1.125" bit: Just set the pipes in place with some silicone. I've just encountered this problem more than once, and so this was the excuse that I needed to act.

I spent a good deal of the time here focusing on the development process, so the actual build is kind of rapid fire. I didn't want it to become too boring or redundant. Pay close attention though, because there are lots of little tricks in this one: For example, did you catch that little rubber band on the coping saw? That's so when you disengage the blade on one side, it doesn't pop out from the other! The coping saw is a severely underrated tool; I use it quite a bit, but for some reason it doesn't make its way into very much footage. I would suggest that you learn to use one, because it is both elegant and effective (once you become accustomed to using it). It does everything that a scroll-saw can do, and much, much more. As an aside, it often amuses me when a commenter complains how a such-and-such tool is unrealistic or inaccessible to most people, when a squirt of ambition and a simple hand-operated alternative will still get you to the same place as any of the motor-driven conveniences that I use do. Sheesh, were my methods crude when I was younger. But there is much to be gained by early employment of primitive procedure. Not only technique is gained, but appreciation. Besides, skills gained early on with basic tools are transferrable in the long term, so it's not like you wasted your time learning how to shape and whittle with a utility knife when you were a kid out on the trails in the summertime. It was more productive than smoking.
