PVC FRUIT PICKER

Step 6 ATTACH THE HANDLE

By now you know the basics of heating and forming PVC. The mounting bracket below is made from the same diameter pipe as the base. Heat the central area with the torch to soften it. Press the soft plastic around a section of handle pipe with blocks of wood until it cools. Pop rivet it in place.

The pole is held in the bracket with a single sheet metal screw.
