Auto Locking Guitar Holder
This guitar holder automatically opens and closes top keep your guitar from falling off the wall. It works great to display your guitar, but the best part is that its satisfying to use.
Its works via a linear gear system and a rubberband that resets the guards when the guitar is off the wall. You will need a single standard rubber band to make this. A little bit of vaseline or lubricant makes it function even smoother.
