Wifi Extender
My family recently bought a smart tv and to boost the wifi signal I made this. It is made with household items. Please vote this into the Weekend project contest!
Gather Materials
You need : a wooden skewer, can, scissors, aluminum foil, electrical tape, and that's it!!
Prepare Skewer and Can
Cut the skewer in half and keep both halves.
Cut the can about an inch from the top, and keep the top part. I taped the sharp edge so no one would get cut

Fold Foil
Fold the foil to about double the width and the length of a dollar bill.
Tape Together
Tape one half of the skewer lengthwise on the foil. Then tape the other half vertical so it looks like a sail. Then tape the whole thing onto the can with the bottom of the top facing up.
Place and You're Done!
Place it so it will boost the signal to the desired direction. You're done!
