DIY Tank Handle

Here is a DIY handle for tanks. The total cost was less than $ 20 from parts bought from Home Depot.

Husky 36 in. Zinc-Plated Steel Hang-All (Model # 36297 Internet # 204695689 Store SKU # 550804) - $6.97 each (2 needed)









Pine Dowel 7/8 - About $3.70





Cut to 8 1/2 



I had these laying around my shop. (I got them from Ikea. They are by the service department and usually are free)





Drill a hole a bit smaller than your choice screw



Cut a piece of 3/4 PVC pipe to length (Use the thin wall PVC) - I did not have to buy it. I had some from a previous job.





Wrap electrician tape around the dowel to fit the PCV pipe a little better (Not needed) 





Paint handle black



Final Product



I had this rubber mat used to exercise laying around also. Decided to wrap around the tank to protect it from bumps.
