Got some benefit from the PET bottle again. The wife never ceases to be surprised

The last straw was another accident on the water supply main, there was no water, a water truck came, we had to carry H2O in a bucket. In principle, not hard, tea is not white-handed, but the bucket has a handle in the form of a curved wire that cuts the hand. And the spouse in it is still wearing washed clothes for drying, disorder. I decided to make an extra handle out of plastic bottles.

Manufacturing

I dissolve the plastic onto the tape with the help of a device that I have invented and implemented long ago, it is simple, anyone can repeat it.

Then he wound the tape around the wire handle of the bucket, for this he tied it in a knot from one end and secured it with electrical tape so that it would not scroll when winding. I had to rewind several layers with an overlap, and then blow it off with a construction hairdryer.

The plastic sat tight, but since it had a tape structure, I decided to fix it additionally. I took an awl, and heating it on a gas burner, I made punctures that fused the layers of the wound tape, which additionally fastened the structure.

Result

I presented the improvement to my wife, she was surprised, but was satisfied, she understands that I care about her, and women appreciate it.

The thought came that it would not hurt to squeeze this handle with heat shrink, but there was no suitable size, and it is never too late to do this.
