In this video, I race against time to make two stands for a wedding: One to hold an outdoor arbor in an indoor venue, the other using handy conduit connectors to hold a hanging neon sign. The arbor holder literally could have been a 2x4 with holes in it, but it was fun combining shapes to make this fancier version instead. The sign stand, meanwhile, looks simple, and it is. It uses cheap 3/4" electrical conduit, simple Maker Pipe conduit connectors, and easy Montana Gold spray paint. But it turned out great, and totaled less than $50 to make, quite the savings over ones on sale online for $350 or more.
