HOW TO MAKE "THE BEST MOP IN THE WORLD"

AFTERTHOUGHTS: Mods to make the mop stronger.
The first time I made this, I had a problem with the mop head coming off, so take a look below at some of the mods that I have made.

a) Be sure to use a wooden mop stick. At the end of the mop stick, cut five grooves as shown.

b) This time wrap the strips around the stick and this time secure with wire as shown.

With these adjustments, you can turn your mop from a one year mop to a hundred year mop.

Happy mopping

Just out of curiousity, why the four grooves on the mop end?

I imagine it gives the ties more grip, as they have a groove to sit in, thus making it sturdier

Is it tacky that I like the fact that a male is holding the mop in the instructional pictures? Actually, this seems like a great idea. Will let you know how it fares for me.
