In this video, I make a Steel Knot Metal Handle which is an Industrial Style Metal Handle, bending rebar to make the knot. I love the look of industrial furniture and all the decor that comes with it, and this rebar handle has the look I like. I hope you enjoy my video of the project, it was a lot of fun to make.

The main tools used, are a MIG welder, angle grinder, drill, and bench vise.

The Rebar in the handle is 7mm, the wide flat bar is 50mm wide, 250mm long, and 3mm thick, the smaller flat bar is 32mm wide, 207mm long, and 6mm thick, and the bolts are 25mm across the head and 50mm long, the shaft of the bolt is 16mm.

Tools / Supplies, I often use are.

Always use all the correct safety gear, and use your tools safely, I am not a good role model for this.

Hope you found something of use in my video or at least found it entertaining.

Note: When you bend metal/rebar, you naturally weaken it. Bending it cold will normally cause fine cracks, and it may even break if you put enough strain on the rebar or bend it in the same place too many times. Do not rely on cold-bent steel/rebar to support a load.
