Pictures of Poor Man's Red Snappers
 
3 Attachment(s)
On another thread I mentioned I made my own Red Snappers to attach my quilts to the leaders. I was asked for pictures so here they are. The U channel (with the red tape) are from Home Depot and are 6 Ft. lengths, available where the track lighting is. The white tubes are from Lowes and the are 5 ft. pieces. They are in plumbing but are not pvc - they are more flexible than that. I just put a hem to hold the white tubes in my leader. Also showing a pic of quilt attached. BTW, I velcro my leaders to bars which makes it super fast.

Are you using 2 different kinds of white tubes in second picture?

Absolutely ingenious. I am going to send my DH off to Home Depot and Lowes. I bet they were a fraction of the cost of red Snappers. Thanks for sharing!

Yes, love this idea. Will definitely check into this because I don't have red snappers. It is great of you to let us know.

No, they are the same tubes - just wanted you to see what they looked like.
