I made a bunch of hot plate trivets for gifts. I put a coat of Danish oil
on them and hung them on a "tree" to dry. The tree was a tubafur with a
5/16" dowel through it. Problem was, the dowel sagged and I could not get
them all on. What to do for the second coat?
Solution: Larger dowel.
Drilled a hole in the tubafur and inserted a 5/8" dowel. While pushing it
into the newly drilled hole, I realized the holes in the trivets were about
3/8".
Maybe I should buy a lathe to turn down the dowel.

I just use those plastic coated coat hangers and hang stuff around on
handy nails.
