Lazy Lee chooses Lockdowel snap-together fastening for assembly and disassembly
Lazy Lee, inventor of rotating cabinets and closets, selects Lockdowel snap-together fastening for easy assembly and disassembly for all furniture designs
CEDAR CITY, UTAH, USA, August 31, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Lazy Lee® the creators of rotating closets and cabinets announces the company will be using Lockdowel assembly exclusively on all of their furniture creations by 2018. Lockdowel allows fast assembly of the company’s modular and rotating closets and cabinets without glue or screws, giving each piece a smooth continuous custom look.
“Lockdowel not only saves us money, but enhances the appearance of all of our furniture, while at the same time strengthening the connections, making our closets easier and faster to assemble and making our systems truly modular,” Inventor and Designer Lee Goldsticker, AKA Lazy “Lee”, says.
Recently Lee was asked to move a custom closet and because of the Lockdowel connections was able to take down the cabinetry and shelves without damaging the integrity of the wood or connections. “With the ability to assemble and disassemble easily, Lockdowel increases the value of our product-- and when all is said and done, is no more expensive than the CAM system of fastening that the closet industry has traditionally accepted,” Lee explains. “Customers can move their closet system with them from one home to another if they wish.”
Lee received inspiration for the Lazy Lee closets from living in Europe in dwellings without any closets or storage spaces available whatsoever. By utilizing corners he found a solution with greater capacity and more eye appeal than has ever been seen before.
"Lockdowel has even made drawer assembly and installation within our product line easy enough for the Do-it-Yourself customer to feel like a professional," Lee says. “We’re excited to apply the Lockdowel solution to a wide array of systems serving a variety of industries—and even more to come!”

Winners of bookmark design competition will receive $1,000 scholarship accounts
(Salt Lake City) The Utah Educational Savings Plan (UESP) and StepUp to Higher Education will celebrate National College Savings Month in September by sponsoring the annual UESP Make Your Mark bookmark design contest. Eight Utah students in kindergarten through grade 12 each will receive a $1,000 college savings scholarship for their winning bookmark designs.
The goal of College Savings Month is to encourage Utah families to save for future college or vocational school expenses. A five-judge panel that includes Utah Gov. Gary Herbert; First Lady Jeanette Herbert; Lynne Goodwin, executive director of the Treehouse Museum in Ogden; Noelle Cockett, president of Utah State University; and Pat Bagley, editorial cartoonist for The Salt Lake Tribune, will select two winning bookmark design entries from each of four grade categories. Scholarship recipients will be notified in mid-October. All decisions by the judges and UESP are final.
In addition to receiving $1,000 UESP college scholarship accounts, each winner’s artwork may be professionally reproduced and distributed at UESP events throughout Utah.
The Make Your Mark design competition is in its eighth year.
“The Make Your Mark competition is an effective motivator for families to start or increase savings for the future college costs of their children,” said Lynne Ward, UESP executive director. “Here at UESP, we like to point out that saving early in a tax-advantaged account makes higher education more attainable. The sooner a family starts, the more time your money has to add up and potentially grow,” Ward said.
The contest runs September 1 through September 29, 2017. Utah students are eligible to enter if they are enrolled in a Utah school or are home-schooled. Parents are not required to own a UESP account.
Entrants must submit an original bookmark design on the official entry form. Visit uesp.org/make-your-mark-2017 to find an entry form and see official Make Your Mark contest rules. Only one entry per
student is allowed.
UESP must receive all entries no later than September 29, 2017, at 5 p.m. MT. Submit entries by mail, courier, or hand delivery. Address information and contest rules and restrictions are detailed on the back of the official entry form.
The contest is not open to past Make Your Mark winners or children of an adult employed or affiliated with the Utah State Board of Regents, Utah Higher Education Assistance Authority, UESP, StepUp to Higher Education, or their advertising agencies.

Park City, Utah (August 31, 2017) – The Autumn Aloft Hot Air Balloon Festival presented by Wells Fargo returns for its fourth flight September 16-17, 2017.
“Autumn Aloft is a favorite on the Park City events calendar,” explains event organizer Monty Coates. “The event allows spectators to enjoy the festival in the morning while having plenty of time to take advantage of all Park City has to offer throughout the day. Saturday evening’s Candlestick event on Historic Main Street is a unique experience for both longtime residents and visitors to Park City.”
More than 30 years ago, Park City resident Gene Moser and a group of local hot air balloon pilots set out to create the classiest Hot Air Balloon festival in the world. Their idea was to create a balloon festival that reflected the free-spirited, anything-goes exuberance of Park City; Autumn Aloft was the brainchild of these passionate balloonists. In 2014, a group of Park City residents organized the event’s return.
Autumn Aloft presented by Wells Fargo is scheduled for September 16-17, 2017 in Park City, Utah. The event will take place at locations throughout Park City. 24 balloonists will be invited to the event.
The schedule of events includes:
Saturday, September 16

8:00 p.m. – 8:30 p.m. Historic Park City Candlestick Event – Historic Main Street
