Master class for the production of brooms

Make a panicle of plastic bottles in different ways. Consider the most popular of them.

2. Similarly, cut off the bottom.

   

3. Scissors cut a blank on a strip of 1 cm wide, not reaching the edge of about 6 cm.
4. We repeat all actions with other tanks, leaving only two intact.

   

The more billets with stripes, the lace will carefully clean the surface.

1. With one of the whole bottles we do all actions as with others, but at the same time do not cut the neck.

   

2. On the harvesting with the neck, we plant all other parts of the product without the bottom and neck.

   

3. Spindle the resulting part of the broom, giving it a flat shape.

Possible and other options for the manufacture of brooms for the garden.

For the product you need to prepare:

• 20 eggplant for 2 liters and one on 1 l;
• holder;
• Saws.

Manufacturing technique:

1. Cut the two-liter bottles on a strip of 5 mm wide, for which homemade bottles will be made.

   

2. In the process of cutting the tape we wake up a piece of 250x300 mm particle size. The tape should be wound as much as possible and binding the node among themselves.

When winding on the board does not need to apply a tape with a thick layer in one place.

1. After completing the winding into the board, we screw the self-tapping screw and tie the edge edge to it.

   

2. To make a tape more rigid, pour it with boiling water. You can also use a construction hairdryer. As a result, the tape will turn into the tube and will become tougher.

   

3. After completing the shrinkage, cut the material at one end.

   

4. Walking in half the ribbons hang on a plastic strip of greater width, we collect in the ring and associate.

   

5. Run a bundle and link it with a ribbon just below the bend.

For the manufacture, you will need to assemble a fixture for cutting bottles on strips, which after will be refined in the rod. To build such a product, in a small bar make a slot, the depth of which corresponds to the width of the plastic tape.

Breeping self-drawing blade of the stationery knife at an angle. In Broke, we do a small hole and insert a solid wire that is used as a bottle holder.

To get a strip from an eyelamp, cut off the bottom, we make a cut with scissors, which will be the beginning of the tape. Then I proceed the edge into the slot of the bar and carefully pull on yourself.

For convenience, the bar must be fixed to the table in any way.

We make stripes of 10-20 plastic bottles, after which we turn to the production of brooms:

1. The construction hairdryer heats the edge of the tape and twist it for several centimeters. We hold this edge into a drill or a screwdriver, we have a tape over the ones with the hair dryer and twist the ribbon in the rod.

   

2. Long bars cut 70 cm long.
3. Hair dryer heating and bended every rod in the middle.

   

4. From a plastic bottle, we cut a wide ribbon with a length of about 1 m and secure it to the cutter.
