Tinker Toys for my garden
I have had so much fun developing this product! I don’t have a lot of time to create plant supports with traditional methods using twine or wire to connect my bamboo and have at times, taken a short cut and purchased those awful wire cages that are not only visually obtrusive but are a pain to store at the end of season. All of these issues brought me to design a connector that would accommodate a variety of stake diameters and give me the ability to configure them in any way I chose. I wanted Tinker Toys for my garden. And that is exactly what I created. I can use this clever (if I do say so myself) little 5 petal silicon rubber flower to build any type of structure I need; cages, tee-pee’s, trellises, and frames for covering with cloth or net for protection. At the end of the season I will just pull them apart or collapse them like an umbrella. Nice!
