Article: Choose five to eight points where you will suspend your chimes. Indicate the points with a marker. This is where you'll drill holes, so the marks should indicate that the chimes are equidistant from the center with equal space between each chime. Don't forget to include a hole for where the striker will hang. Mark the other side of the base, too, to indicate where you plan on drilling holes to make the base hang from the wind chime's point of suspension if needed. These should be tiny holes. Your goal is to be able to run the thread on the chimes through them. Drill a hole in the center of the platform between the holes for the chime threads, then drill a hole through the striker's center and one corner of the sail. Cut an appropriate length of thread. This depends on how low you want these pieces to hang. For a five-foot thread, for example, fold the thread in half, then pull it through the sail and knot it. Make a second large knot where the striker will hang about 16 inches or less above, then thread it through the striker. Try to keep the sail close to the bottom of the longest chime. The longer the sail's support line, the stronger the wind has to be to move the sail and its extra weight. Remember that wind velocity is often stronger the higher you hang the wind chime, so a sail too close to the ground also won't cause the chimes to sound as much. Take the thread coming out of the top of the striker and run it through the hole you made in the center of the platform. On the top side, knot the thread securely. This thread, if you chose to make it long enough, can be used to suspend the entire chime. You can also choose to add other hanging implements such as hooks.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Mark the base. Drill the holes. Thread the sail and striker. Secure the striker to the platform.

Problem: Article: Use branches that are at least 1122 feet (0.460.61m) in length. Stand them on end and lean them together so their tops meet. Use grass, rope, or your shoelaces to tie them together so the tops form a small "V." You could also find tall logs to use. Set the branches so the opening under the branches faces away from the wind. Make sure the stick is mostly straight. Rest one end in the small "V" at the top of the A-frame and the other end on the ground. Check to see if you have enough room to lie under the shelter completely. Tie the longer branch to the frame so the longer branch doesn't move around or shift. Dig a small hole to rest the other end of the branch in if you want added stability. Use at least 610in (1525cm) of bedding so you aren't lying on the ground. Avoid using any fresh green leaves since these could easily transfer moisture to your body. Lay the branches on each side of the shelter so they are at a 45-degree angle to the main branch. Break or cut any branches that extend past the long branch so your shelter is compact. Fill in all the cracks between the branches as best as you can. Use smaller branches to cover any holes or cracks and to prevent debris from falling through. Start from the bottom of the structure and layer the debris onto the framework you made. The thicker you make your insulation, the warmer you'll stay and the more camouflaged you'll be. Aim to layer the leaves at least 2ft (0.61m) thick. Cover the opening of your A-frame with more sticks if you want to completely close your shelter when you're sleeping or away.
Summary: Set up 2 sturdy branches to form an "A" shape. Tie a stick that's 2ft (0.61m) taller than you to the tops of the A-frame. Cover the ground under the structure with dry leaves and grass. Lean solid branches on each side of the long stick to form a ribcage. Place dead branches and leaves on top of the ribcage.

Remember that mildew starts to grow wherever moisture is present. Be aware that damp dirty clothing can start to stink up before it ever makes it to the washer, even if it didn't smell bad when you first stripped it off. Use wet clothes as an excuse to start a load as soon as you take them off. If this isn't possible, don't ball up your wet clothes and dump them in the hamper. Let them air-dry on a hanger, drying rack, or clothesline before adding them to your other dirty laundry. If you forgot all about your last load sitting in the washer, wash it a second time to get rid of any funky smells that may have developed in the meantime. Use the highest temperature possible that's still safe for your fabrics. Instead of detergent, however, choose between adding color-safe bleach or chlorine to kill the mildew and eliminate that smell. Or, if you want to avoid chemical products, use plain white vinegar instead. These all smell pretty strong in their own right, so you may need to wash your clothes a third time with laundry detergent to get rid of any residual smells. If you're really prone to forgetting about that last load in your washer, take preemptive action. Add several drops of lavender essential oil to your load when pouring in the detergent at the start of your cycle. Use this mold-resistant product to protect your clothes from developing mildew for longer. This can stall mildew from growing for at least a couple of days. If the washer itself is the smelly culprit, fill the drum with hot water. Add 2 cups of white vinegar. Let the water sit for 30 minutes or so. Then start a regular wash cycle without adding any laundry. Give it a test sniff once it's done and repeat if necessary. Remember that mildew loves moisture and darkness. So don't shut your washer's lid or door once you empty it. Either leave it open all the time for more air circulation and light, or give it at least the length of your dryer's cycle to air out before you close it. If the washer tends to stink up on its own pretty frequently, reduce the amount of liquid detergent and fabric softener that you use. Keep in mind that these are thicker than water and don't always dissolve all the way during a wash cycle. This means that residue is left inside your machine, which can be a breeding ground for mildew. Remember that many detergents are concentrated, so you only need a little bit. If you experience buildup in your machine, check the detergent's directions for recommended amounts.
