5 ideas for making a homemade instrument

Homemade tools and devices, made specifically for specific jobs, are often more convenient than purchased, more universal counterparts. In addition, the cost of producing such homemade products is cheap, so they are doubly preferable. We offer 5 options for manufacturing such tools and equipment.

1. Wrench for plastic ties

To make a key, you will need to unroll the tin shell of the battery. A strip with a round handle is cut out of it. The strip should match the width of the screed tape.

The resulting key is driven into the screed lock and unlocks it. While it is inside, it can be removed without damaging it.

2. Hand hacksaw for hard-to-reach places

For this homemade product you will need a piece of M8 hairpin 60-90 mm long. It needs to be cut lengthwise into half the length.

The solid end of the pin is then screwed into a wooden handle.

Two nuts are screwed onto the cut edge. With their help, you can clamp a jigsaw file in the holder.

3. Universal mooring bracket

For laying walls with brick or any other material, you can make universal hooks for mooring. To do this, you need to bend 2 staples from the wire. They are folded together, and then identical L-shaped hooks are bent from them.

All that remains is to tie the cord to them and hook the hooks at the corners of the masonry. When fastened in this way, the mooring fits very tightly, which is what is needed.

4. Cable pulling device

To stretch the cable, you can take a large nut and make a cut in it, into which the cord will fit tightly.

Then the cable with this tip can be pulled wherever needed using a powerful magnet.

5. Right angle wire bending device

To make this device, you need to weld a piece of angle to the base of the profile pipe. The resulting welding seams are carefully cleaned so that the second corner can be tightly applied on top.
