About the Hardware Basket The Hardware Basket was born in April of 2007 after frustrations arose trying to find comprehensive plans for a sturdy basket. The Hardware Basket is at a point where you can build one, but it will always be in a state of evolution as I get feedback. Heck, in it's first weekend alone, I received several suggestions that made the basket better. OK, you saw the picture above. Below is a short video of the basket in action. There's a link to download the plans after the video. Distribute these as you like. Linking to this page is your best bet as this page will always have the most up-to-date plans. I'm not going to charge for these because you still have to buy all the materials and do all the work. Updates 04.30.07 The PDF has been updated to change the length of the stove bolts to 1-inch rather than 3/4-inch. Also, the measurements on the PVC coupler were a bit off. That piece should be a 3-inch to 1-1/2-inch PVC coupler.
