It is not at all necessary to buy a rope for a trimmer; you can make it yourself from a PVC bottle. The finished rope is strong and can withstand significant loads.

Let's start creating a string for the trimmer


First of all, we cut a ribbon from a plastic bottle. The wider the tape, the wider the rope will be.

One end of the rope should be fixed, for example, in a vice, and the other side should be clamped in a screwdriver chuck.

We twist the stretched tape into a rope. The tape must always be taut, otherwise it will unravel.

Next, use a construction hairdryer to heat the workpiece along its entire length. Under the influence of warm air, the tape will curl into a strong spiral, and when it cools, it will retain its shape.

The main thing here is not to overdo it and not to overexpose the hairdryer, otherwise the tape will lose its quality and shape.
Please note: in order for the rope to be uniform in width, it must be twisted from time to time.

If you don’t have a screwdriver and a hair dryer, don’t despair.You can use any stick as a wrench, and provide heating with a regular lit gas stove or lighter. However, the process of creating a rope will be more convenient if you use professional tools.

You can use a couple of layers of tape to create a rope. It will turn out more elastic and stable, but it will have more thickness.

The price of industrial fishing lines is high, but this method will cost you a pretty penny. In addition, you can make as much rope as you need. In addition, the store may not have the required size. Using the method described above, you can obtain the required thickness.
This line is stronger than nylon line of the same width and can withstand maximum loads.

Metal cable is often used instead of fishing line, as it lasts a long time. However, this is not the right solution. The cylindrical shape and rigidity allow the fishing line to easily penetrate the eyelet grooves and sleeves. These are not all the places where this rope is used. It can be used as linen, for the production of bowstrings and strings of musical instruments.

    as an option when there is no fishing line at hand. nothing more, because the costs are more expensive than ready-made fishing line!
