Manufacturing process.
To begin with, the master cleaned the bucket from the rest of the contents, and noted the center on the lid.
Using a compass, he transferred the internal dimensions of the lid onto a sheet of tin.
I drilled a hole for the entrance of a jigsaw blade, and cut out a circle.
The sharp edges of the disc are sanded with sandpaper.
Countersinks the holes on the disk, and screws it to the cover.
On the inside, excess self-tapping screws are cut off by a grinder.
Then the master tried on the plug, and drilled a hole for it with the help of a crown.
Then I screwed the plug in the center of the bottom.
I cut off the workpiece from an unnecessary tee, and removed the rubber from it.
Now tries on a suitable piece of pipe, marks the desired size.
The excess is cut off, and the burrs are removed with a knife.
Then the master needs to make a winch. He made it from sheet plywood.
To give her an appearance, the author burned her from two sides, and cleaned it with a wire brush. He also soaked the workpiece with drying oil.
Installs it in its place, and fastens it to the inner pipe. It is important that the screws do not protrude from the inside.
Drills a hole for the hose in the pipe with a step drill.
Screws the handle to the winch with a long self-tapping screw.
In the side surface of the bucket also makes a slot for the hose.
Pass the hose through the tube, screw on the connectors.
