Brilio.net - Pans are one of the most frequently used kitchen utensils. Unlike frying pans which usually do not have lids, pans are generally equipped with various types of lids that vary in size and material. Because they are often used, pans are easily damaged. Although the pan lid is not always used when cooking, this part can still be damaged, especially the handle which can come off.
A broken pot lid handle can interfere with the cooking process and make activities in the kitchen more difficult. Sure, you can buy a new handle or take the pot to a repairman. Even buying a new pot can be an option. However, buying new pots often can be expensive, and there is no guarantee that the new pot will last longer.
Alternatively, you can try to fix the pot lid handle yourself. According to information from TikTok @danyang96kuduslor shared on Wednesday (11/27), you can fix the pot lid handle using only three used bottle caps.
The three types of waste referred to here are waste from syrup bottle caps, waste from canned drink bottle caps, and finally waste from mineral water bottle caps.

The first step is to take the waste syrup bottle cap and make a hole in the middle using a cutter. Then take the waste canned drink bottle cap, reduce the bottom of the cap until half is left. Do the same thing as the syrup bottle cap, which is to make a hole in the middle of the bottle using a cutter.

Use a syrup bottle cap for the top of the pot lid and position the hole of the syrup bottle cap facing up. Next, place the canned bottle cap on the inside of the pot lid. Install the bolt from the bottom of the canned bottle cap using a screwdriver until it penetrates the top of the syrup bottle cap. Make sure the bolt you install is strong, okay.

Once it is firmly attached, attach and glue the mineral water bottle cap using glue on the top hole of the syrup bottle cap. Now, the handle of the pan lid is ready.
