Easy Cheap/free Bicycle Flashlight Mount

Easy Cheap/free Bicycle Flashlight Mount
TL;DR version:
It's essentially just the threaded part of a plastic bottle sized to fit by heating it up attached with a tie-wrap.

The tools I used:
a lighter
a pipe wrench
a utility knife
and a iron saw

The materials used:
a plastic bottle
a tie-wrap
optionally some kind of rubber

Step 1Cut the top part of the bottle

Cut the top part of the bottle
Being careful to only cut into the bottle and not into yourself, cut of the top of the bottle. Aim for the place just below the rim where the plastic gets thinner. If you have too much excess plastic hanging on you can trim that off too.
