A novel approach for storage organizers is shown whereby a storage organizer is optimized to be installed in between exposed studs, or alternatively, onto a flat wall surface, or a pegboard surface. The embodiment of the present invention is compatible with all three modes of installation. Additionally, another embodiment of a storage organizer invention is shown whereby two components are used to form a pronged storage organizer that is mountable onto a wall or exposed stud. The alternate embodiment discloses the usage of a specially formed set of pronged arms and connecting body that compatibly fold up when not in use, and which are conveniently deployed to an open position when desired. |

A display strap in the form of a flat belt of flexible material into which a number of tongues are cut each individually deflectable out of the plane of the strap about an unsevered end used as a hinge. The tongue has a cross-member at its free end and a portion of reduced width adjacent the cross-member. Two part slots are provided adjacent the hinge to receive the cross-member and then permit the tongue to be displaced into locking engagement between the cross-member and the rear surface of the strap. The looped tongue is employed to support elongate articles formed into multi-turn hanks. An alternative locking slot arrangement employs a tapered width locking slot which requires the tongue to be rotated to enter the locking slot making accidental opening of the loop very difficult. |

Rack forms to be placed on the ground or floor of a steel coil storage area and provided with 4.times.4 or similar timber units to form racks and a rack system for receiving steel coils and holding them off the floor or ground. The rack forms define a pair of spaced-apart channels or troughs into which lumber units are received. The channels include, as securing means, vertical nails or spikes pointing upward. The lumber is driven into the spike as it is received in the trough. Cross members secure the troughs together and define and fix the distance separating the parallel lumber units. A pair of such rack forms can produce a rack much longer than twice their length by providing them with long timber units spanning between the separated pair of rack forms. Parallel rack arrays can be made using a second T-rack form, using similar troughs and spikes to hold timber units in a T-array. |

The invention comprises a circular, transparent, plastic disc having a plurality of circular holes located equidistant from the center of the disc and being substantially equidistant from each other. A plurality of radial tabs equal in number to the number of holes and located on radii corresponding to respective holes provides a device wherein a plurality of strands of yarn are cut into substantially equal lengths and divided by color. The yarn of like color is inserted through a hole, and a central portion of the yarn is pulled over a tab corresponding with the hole on its radius, thus locking the strands in place relative to each other and the disc. The disc can be mounted on posts extending from a "lazy-Susan" base. |
