I found some things online about diy swifts but I didn’t have any of the things that they used like Tinker toys or K’nexs. I looked around my house and didn’t come up with any thing. *sigh* I have almost given in to ordering one but I just couldn’t spend that money just yet.
I had to stop at the dollar store to pick up some other things and eureka!! I found it!!! I picked up 2 hook racks and 2 packs of clamps. I knew that I had a cake decorating stand that I would use as a lazy Susan to make this thing spin.
So here is how to make a 1min $4 dollar swift
Open the racks all the way up and clamp them down to the cake stand in a x form and your done!!!
Add yarn and spin way!!
The swift can move faster then the video. I don’t know why its moving so slow.
Thanks for stopping by!!
