Sw mn | I make a plastic spiral cut hose protector. It is super easy and fast. It cost about 40-50 cents per foot. And you can wrap one hose or a dozen. Just make a cutter and buy a role of black plastic pipe at Menards. You will have a life time supply for under a hundred.
Just take a pipe that will slip fit over plastic hose. Then drill a hole near one end just larger than 3/8". Then weld a 3/8" nut over the hole. Then take a angle grinder and cut into a bolt leaving 1/4" of thread. The cut should be from both sides of the nut making a triangle wedge. Next put a jam nut on the bolt and thread into the pipe. Turn your bolt to make about a 3/4-1" spiraling cut. Weld any handle on you want. I just have two 6" pipes perpendicular to the 10" slip fit pipe that are 6" long.
I can make about five feet per minute just by hand. I can post pictures in a couple of days if needed | |
