Assembly
We need to hold signs aloft over the student registration table, so students can see which line they should be in. A few years ago Walker Kelly invented the Whippy Things to do this. They use bicycle flag poles, bits of plastic tubing to make T-junctions, and clamps to attach it all to the tables.
Here Walker (right) assembles the Whippy Things with help from Chris Parrish (front) and Jason Sytsma (back).
Mounting
