    Default What do you call it?

    I know I am opening myself up for a huge amount of abuse but I can't figure it out.

    What are those things called that hang above a floating bench in the centre of a kitchen that you hang your larger cutlery and saucepans and the like from.

    Be gentle

    Cheers

    Pot hanger.
    Many are ladderlike but some are made with heavy steel mesh.

    You're all idiots. It's called a Thingamejig, at the very worst you can call it a whosamiwhatsit.
    Is there anything easier done than said?

    Kris, I know what you call those thingamajigs, but how do you make a floating bench so that you can hang one above it?

    1) don't fix it to the floor.
    2) seal all the openings with sikaflex
    3)dam the door openings in kitchen
    4)flood kitchen
    5)watch it float

    You hang it from the pothanger which hangs from the ceiling (or a skyhook).

    Maybe I should have said Island bench but I thought against it as I knew I'd have people out there tell me coconut trees, the sun, etc...

    I still can't agree with any of the above although pot hanger sounds good. It is some thing but I can't think of it right now.

    Cheers

    It's actually a <B>pot rack</B> not a pot hanger.

    Kris,

    You mean one of these (below). It's called a "My Wife Told Me To Make It" but I prefer ROLY's suggestion of "Dust Collector"
