Foldable Carabiner Water Bottle - Made @TechShop!
You ARE Water.
I don't think we have to discuss any further Why we should have a bottle on our person.
Reusable/Recyclable is IN these days- and that's cool.
For EDC (Every Day Carry) we don't need a whole clunky metal bottle, let's go for something light and efficient.
Daiso has these Carabiner Water Bottles that are really neat, but I thought LETS INNOVATE EVEN MOAR!
So....let's roll it up and keep it clicked in!- For ease of carry and efficiency of space.Materials:
Plastic Water Bottle (Daiso)
Snaps (smaller the better)
Marker (for marking)
Tools:
Hammer
Heat Gun
Bowl of Water
Set Your Stuff Up
Yes.
Roll It Up & Measure + Set Up Snaps
Mark where you feel is appropriate for the Snap-crackle-fit!
Heat Gun That Bish and Presssss
I'm not completely sure if this step is necessary but I just wanted to make sure I had a good base to puncture through
Stick It Through and Hammerslam
Oh yeah!
Rinse and Repeat
R&R
BUT...
what I would've done is aligned all the snaps so the "male" snap doesn't get distorted
(live and learn)
(L&L)
Heat Treat the Snap Areas and QUENCH THE THIRST!!!
of the work... :)
(Test by blowing AiR into the bottle)
Ta-Da!
Next time I would also like to move the Snaps on the side of the Carabiner.
Although there is a balanced aesthetics to it, it would make the spout perpendicular to the clip.
Nevertheless,
it's super sweet eh?
Indeed.
Thanks for reading!
