This is exactly what I had decided to make my hanger with, 1/2" iron pipe! I hadn't thought about the joining tee on the end, but that's a great idea. If I can't find the wire hinge clamp, I'll order one online. I have my bench coming this week and thanks, also, for your Foredome SP recommendation, that's what I'll also get. I'm so jazzed, thanks so much for all the great advice!!

Wow, I too hate the flex shaft holder I have. Now I know what I'm doing this weekend. Thanks for this video!

+kelley0905 Yay! Glad this video helped. Tag me on instagram if you make your own I would love to see! Thanks for watching xo!

Just what I’m looking for, thank you for sharing:)

Oh my gosh! This couldn’t have come at a better time! Thanks so much for sharing this with us! I just changed out my bench/desk and have had a heck of a time finding something that would work. This is perfect! Thanks so much! 🥰

Great idea I made one today as a floor stand for my fordom.

I’m so excited Michelle my daughter and I went to Home Depot for Mother’s Day and I bought everything except for one item to build this stand for my Fordham. For some reason Home Depot did not carry the wire hinge clamp anyway what I did was get some chain and a wide enough stainless steel cabinier so I can connect the handle of the motor to the stand. Now I’m in the process of drilling down my stand to the desk. I will send you a pic on your Instagram messages so you can see what I did. FYI now that it’s been what 10 years since she did this it cost $40 instead of $30. Of course we have to deal with inflation… thank you so much for this video because you’ve made my life so much more easier as well….. big hugs Michelle

this is awesome!!! i wish i would have seent this before buying my flimsy one. Ugh! I'm changing to this soon

Cool, I have the same type of pipe stand, except I bought smaller length pipe sections so I could add more tee fittings and have more arms on it to hang my saws, optivisor and other things.

Very nice, thanks for posting. I'll use some of these ideas using smaller 1/2" black pipe size for a much smaller and lighter Wen rotary tool. Might use an idea I saw elsewhere, use a pipe clamp (Jorgenson, Irwin or Harbor Freight ) if you want the stand removable mounted on the edge of the workbench. My bench is an HCD and the rotary tool will be used only occasionally. Like your beefy version!

Thanks I made this version years ago and still going strong after all this time. Happy Creating 🥰

You’re great! And great video! I’m gonna see if I can make an adaptation since I don’t currently have a bench to screw it onto. Really appreciate your simple straightforward approach! Thank you!! (Found you after I unpacked a total piece of sh!t hanger.)

Love this! So helpful thank you! I have such a ghetto set up right now XD I especially love that no power tools are required, just assemble, attach to bench and go.

Hun don't even worry about it! Was a crazy long message hahaha. When I get my new work bench I'll give the flex shaft stand a go!

thank you SO much for posting this! i have the same stand you did & mine broke in the same exact way. bent the handle on the flex shaft just like yours, but he's still working - thank goodness. i got a lot of my tools secondhand from a guy who sold me his entire shop - so I knew it was a matter of time for the stand. i'm getting the supplies to make a DIY stand this weekend!

So cool that you made a better project for less money.

Great idea. I think I'll make one for two flex shafts.

This is brilliant! And, yay for "dirty hands"! ;)

Fantastic idea! Thanks for the tip I have been using a bent plant hanger on the side of the bench, which is totally not sturdy, I think I will do something like it and I'm glad you said the manufactured one is crap. I was thinking of getting one.

I made me one and I love it thank you so very much

Hi, I love your videos. I'm starting ot set up my own little work space in my garage so videos like these where you go through the equiptment you use are really useful! even just the quick mention of what type of flexshaft you use is useful :) Cant wait for your next video. Take care! ST

I love this video, thanks. I never even considered the pole of my flex shaft might break. Thanks for your ongoing generosity.

This is so cool that you did this. I admit I can be challenged when it comes to assembling stuff. This helped so much. I'm getting mine this weekend! Thank you so much for sharing!

Great idea

I am making this too! Another great jewelry bench DIY I did this week was to buy a couple (2) of those metal rack style wine glass holders -the kind that you screw under your cabinets and slide the wine glass stem in- , I screwed them in horizontally against the face of my bench on either side of my pin, just a couple inches below it. Perfect for holding pliers right where I need them!!! They were $5.99 at Lowe's (probably HD too). I'll attempt a DIY video if I can borrow a camera.......thanks MeShe - you ROCK (GEM)!

+Gabby Flying Chef / Did you ever make the video? I'm always looking for ideas to store tools.

Great idea.

Great idea.

Great job with the video, I just bought a foredom sr flex shaft and I'm making the same pipe stand, my version is going to sit on the floor. Thanks for video

Cool..

You know that you are great at doing videos right? You've thought about this a lot and you know that you are doing a great job. You're a really smart person (much like my sister Jackie), and you know. I thing that you are being maybe falsely modest?

You are MacGyver. btw it is cup-ling, not coop-ling.
