I made a bike repair stand

I have so much scrap wood right now. I am a hoarder of trash, if anybody didn't know that already. So I've been thinking about how I can use it up.

After recently having to fix a flat in my bike tire, and having to do it while flipping my bike on the handlebars and seat, I thought making a repair stand would be great. After searching a bit, I found a good visual and tried to copy it.

DIY Bicycle Repair Stand from Scrap Wood By Diana Hansen

After a little bit of scouring my shed for proper scraps and sketching out on my notebook, I made one, and it works great!

A bike repair stand made out of pressure treated wood. It has two flat 2x4 legs as a base, a single 4x4 as a center post, and two 2x4 arms coming out from the top for holding the bike up.

It took about an hour, maybe, and bunch of screws. It even has some luxuries like cut up tires and tubes to rest the top tube on and a plastic to-go container to put misc tools and parts while you work! Things I learned this project:

Pilot holes make everything better.
Sketching and planning beforehand makes everything better.
Don't be a potion hoarder, just make the thing.
