Tutorial on making shoe racks from construction water pipes. If you happen to have leftover water pipes at home, don’t waste them. This kind of shoe rack made of pipes is very simple. You just need to cut it into sections and glue the pipes together with rivets or glue. The shape of the shoe rack and the number of "positions" can be completely combined according to your own preferences. In addition to a pile of shoes, there is also a "sweeping robot" in this place, so my idea is to raise the shoe rack and put a "sweeping robot" in the original position. When it wants to charge, it will get into the "hole". Because mens shoes are wider, a 12-centimeter-diameter tube is needed, and womens shoes are narrower, and a 10-centimeter-diameter tube is usually enough. I used these two types of tubes. The length of the tube (that is, the depth of the shoe rack) is generally 20, 25, or 30 centimeters. You can also mix them. Mine is a mixture of 20 cm and 25 cm.

The following is the production process:

Later, I prepared to raise it so that the "sweeping robot" could "enter the hole."

Later I discovered that the "sweeping robot" had a higher charger, so I added two scrap iron pipes at the bottom.

Gender inequality: women’s shoes have small tubes, while men’s shoes have big tubes.

After putting on slippers, it looks clean and tidy.

Description:

The pipes can be used to collect discarded plastic water pipes on the construction site. If there are round cans with a diameter of more than 10 cm, it is also acceptable. It is best to use a material that looks better. If you want to buy: You can buy the materials in general tool stores.
