Make a Portable, Collapsible Clothing Rack From PVC for 10 Dollars in Under an Hour

My daughter needed a small portable clothing rack for a dance competition. Make this one out of PVC pipe and fittings in an hour for about $10. Don't use glue and you can take it apart for storage and transport.

You need:

• Two 10 foot lengths of 3/4 inch PVC pipe
• Six 90 degree elbows (3/4 inch)
• Two tees (3/4 inch)
• Two couplers (3/4 inch)
• Some colored duck tape fro decoration
• A saw

Start with the two 10 foot pieces of 3/4 inch PVC pipe.

• Cut 4 pieces to 24 inches for the uprights.
• Cut 1 piece to 18 inches for the cross bar.
• Cut 2 pieces to 18 inches for the long bases.
• Cut 4 pieces to 5 inches for the short bases.

• Take the short bases and insert them into the inline sections of the tees.
• Place an elbow on each end of the short base and tee assemblies.
• Connect the short base and tee assemblies with the long bases.
• Place an upright on each of the tees.
• Place a coupler on each of the uprights.
• Place another upright on each couple.
• Place an elbow on each of those uprights.
• Connect the elbows with the cross bar.

• Take various colors of tape.
• Wrap in short overlapping segments.

It's cheap and quick to make. It only takes a minute to disassemble for transport and assemble for use.

Ready for any time you have quick clothes changes at your recital, competition, or whatever.
