Introduction: Easy DIY Vegetable Harvester.
This device makes harvesting hard to reach vegetables in the garden easy and fun as well as being perfect to help teach kids about farming.
!!! = This step requires ADULT SUPERVISION
Supplies
- Plastic Cup (Does not have to be clear).
- Cardstock Paper (Any color works).
- Paper Cutters (I used a circle cutter tool however scissor work as a alternative).
- Wooden Skewers (I used 4, however you can add more to increase the range).
- Hot Glue (Theoretically super glue could work but I would recommend hot glue).
Step 1: Prepare to Cut
Take your plastic cup and trace a circle around it on the cardstock.
Step 2: Make the Cut
!!! Cut out the circle from the cardstock.
Step 3: Mark Next Cuts
This step is optional, you could just eyeball the cut however if you would like to mark your circle with the same starlike pattern shown above.
Step 4: Make the Last Cut
!!! Use your scissors to cut out along the dashed line, be careful not to cut all the way to the end of the circle.
Step 5: Hot Glue Time
!!! Hot glue the paper circle to the top of the plastic cup.
Step 6: Finish the Device
!!! Take your wooden skewers and hot glue them to the sides of the cup then together on the other end.
Step 7: Have Fun Harvesting
Go to the garden and get harvesting!
