I made this model to hang my sons Mini Baseball Bat on his wall. One bracket will allow the barrel of the bat to hang to the left and the other will allow it to hang to the right. Find the center of a wall stud and mark it with a pencil. Align the center indicator on the top of the bracket with the line you made on the wall. Run one, 1 5/8" deck screw (or similar) through the bracket mounting hole and into the wall stud. Level the bracket and run a second screw through the other mounting hole.
