Handle, Step 2: CUTTING HOLES/SLOTS IN THE HANDLE:

2) Cut slot in bottom of handle for battery pack if desired:


TIPS:

FOR SMALL SLITS:

-use PVC cutter to cut where the end of the slit will be.

-then simply use PVC cutter to cut the slit itself.


FOR LARGE SLITS (longer than PVC cutter blade)

-use PVC cutter to cut where the end of the slit will be.
-use hack-saw to cut sides of slit itself in a long straight line.

as my father used to say: "It's all fun and games, until someone loses an eye." or in this case" It's all fun and games until someone breathes in toxic fumes.
