I'm just about finished building my bundler, but I'm having trouble coming up with a carrying handle for the customers.
I was planning on using 1/4" narrow crown staples to hold it on, but maybe that's not the right thing.
I've tried pieces of that plastic strapping that is used around boxes, but it pulls right out of the staples. I tried doubling it up at the ends, but that didn't work either.
I thought maybe some binder twine, but that can get pretty thin and painful to tender hands.
Clothesline rope at the hardware store in 10 cents a foot - that looks good, but I'd like to go cheaper than that.
that nylon webbing strap is good, but that's even more expensive (from a brief search).
A piece of hose is good. That's strong and holds well. I even tried slicing it thinner (maybe 1/4 of the hose) and it still holds well, but I'm not too keen on the idea of burning rubber (nor will all customers like the idea), and it would be hard for some people to remove the hose.
What about pull tape or Muletape? That seems to be worth looking into. It looks like the plastic strapping, but it's woven. 3 cents a foot in huge quantities.
