evan9381 Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 currently im living in an apartment, and in my laundry room, i have no where to hang clothing while im doing the laundry...is there something i can put up, similar to a shower pole that will expand into the walls and hold some clothes? i really would prefer not to put nails/screws into the walls and have to fix it later...i would like something i can take down in 2 min and have no traces left once im done oh, btw, its maybe 30" wide room...just big enough for a washer or dryer (sit opposite each other) to fit in with a few inches on each side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Science Abuse Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/3963/closetee6.jpg doesn't touch the walls. Basically two "ladders" on either end with 2x4s connecting it. the shelves are good to hold my weight and a lot more, and doesn't mar up the walls. You can build to fit your machines and hang whatever you want from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evan9381 Posted December 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 thanks for the idea, but really i just need a single pole to go from wall to wall to hang clothes on while im doing the laundry...the laundry room is connected to the kitchen, and i either have to just put the clothes on the floor or go back to my room to do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Go get a shower pole that has a spring inside it. All you do is twist the two halfs to the desired length, then an extra half turn. Pull the 2 pieces together compressing the spring and put it where you want it. Installation 5 seconds.

smokin5s Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 enough to hold clothes.... you won't be able to do pull ups on it but that's not what you're looking to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 yea, but realistically how much weight do you think it's actually gonna support? I use to catch my kids hanging on the one in our old house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinner Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 yes walmart or meijers as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 its just a shower pole that is spring tensioned. You can screw it together or apart to get the size you want then compress the 2 pieces together(spring inside) and put it wherever you want.
