Mother in law is a master gardener and apparently these are mighty popular so I built this for her using a brake rotor 1/2" and 3/8" steel.

Just sits there  Sorry, You acquire empty glass bottles of different colors and place them on the spikes/rods. It then becomes yard/garden art. The best part is the acquisition of the empty bottles. The most colorful usually contain some amount of alcohol

Indians believed that if the bottles were put on the rods with the neck down that the evil spirits would go inside the bottles and be trapped forever.

I thought that was a Cajun thing that they put up in cemeteries to trap evil spirits

If the 2nd amendment was written just to include guns for hunting, why is there not an amendment to protect fishing poles?
Never trust a man that doesn't trust you.
