Bucket Twine Dispenser
✖ |
"I was always scrounging up old baling twine for various tasks, so I decided to treat myself to a supply of new baling twine and put it in a dispenser that would make the twine easy to use and easy to store," says Gerry Hawkes, Woodstock, Vt., about his all-weather, tangle-free baling twine dispenser.
He cleaned out a used, 5-gal. plastic pail and dropped a new ball of baling twine into it, then drilled a hole through the center of the lid and pulled the end of the twine through the hole. Then he snapped the bucket's lid in place.
"Just to make a good thing better, I mounted a twine cutter on the side of the bucket so now I don't even have to pull my jack knife out of my pocket," says Hawkes.
