The woven-web plastic handle that came with the water-softener tank was wearing out and needed to be replaced. The new handle had to be something substantial that would make lifting the heavy and bulky tank easy. I cut a 1¼-inch wooden dowel to fit the width of the water-supply housing.
I then drilled two 9/32-inch holes in the dowel and threaded a length of ¼-inch poly rope through each hole, making loops to fit around the water fittings. I tied figure-eight knots and burnished the ends with a torch to prevent unraveling.

I have a lot of road grime on my RV. I tried everything. What’s the best product to get it off.
Dude I was amazed. Tree sap covered my borrowed RV. Nothing would get it off. Tide bleach sponges wiped it right off. I told the wife she was crazy but it worked. Saved me hours of worrk!
What is the bottle for? Is it a water softener or a filter?
Sorry, I see it’s a softener now… my bad…
