Figured the square shape would fit tighter around the leg. 1 piece of plywood long enough to fit between the legs and wide enough to hold the UPS. I wanted to get the UPS off the floor so I could clean more easily under the longarm. I don’t have as much hand strength as I used to so asked a friend to tighten the U-bolts. Men can really tighten bolts well. Had wanted to paint the plywood, just don’t see it to remind me to get that little job done.
Thank you, very resourcefull idea and easy to do. I've been racking my brain trying to come up with a solution to my power cord woes.
After reading your post I rushed out to DH's shop and found a shelf and two brackets left over from another project, and even have square u-bolts, but they were too small. I have the zip ties for the cord. And found some angle braces that i can screw to the top side of the board, and the UPS can be secured so it doesn't shift from the table vibrations ( i assume that's why you have yours strapped to the frame leg?)
So a quick stop at Ace Hardware tomorrow for the right size bolts and i'm all set.
Thank you again for sharing your wonderful idea.
