The author proposes to collect those apricots that fell to the ground, not with his hands, being in a bent state, but with the help of a home-made device.
For the manufacture of this stray you will need twine, a piece of sewer plastic pipe, two pieces of polypropylene pipe.
First of all, it will be necessary to cut a piece of 15 cm long from a plastic sewer pipe. For this, the master uses a grinder, however, in order to save electricity, you can usually do with a manual hacksaw for metal.
The main stages of work
At the next stage, on one side of the workpiece, you need to mark in a circle with the same pitch, and then drill holes.
Further, the author threaded the twine into the drilled holes, pulling it a little. According to the idea, the rope should not damage the fruits during their collection. Although, of course, this is a moot point.
Then it remains only to cut two pieces of polypropylene pipe of the desired length. At one end, the author makes a slot using a grinder.
Then the PP pipes are attached to the sewer plastic pipe using bolts and nuts. Homemade ready.
