Abstract
A storage device includes at least one set of first and second tubular members, and a plurality of elastic cords that form a penetrable barrier. A first end of each elastic cord is coupled to a first tubular member by a knot, and a second end of each elastic cord is coupled to a second tubular member by positioning an enlarged body in a keyhole. A method for assembling a storage device includes securing first and second tubular members to a frame, looping an elastic cord around the first tubular member, and inserting an enlarged body into a keyhole of the second tubular member. In alternative example, each end of the elastic cord includes an enlarged body and each end of the elastic cord is positioned in a keyhole. In another alternative example, the first tubular member is fed through the loop of each elastic cord.
