• 2 step - dried plants again cleansed (stems should be smooth) if seeds are present (for example, in sorghum) they must be removed;
• 3 step - the prepared plant put on a flat surface, connect them together into a large beam (proceed to the formation of the handle);
• 4 step - visually separate the pen knob about its main part (size must be customized to your size, since it is from the length of the handle that a convenient position in the process of sweeping will depend on the handle);
• 5 Step - With the help of wire, secure the branches in three places of the handle (not reaching 2 cm from the top, exactly in the middle and the end of the handle);
• 6 Step - Go to the formation of a panicle - parts, at the expense of which the garbage will be removed. Since the pitfall was already arbitrarily created during the formation of a broom handle, it is necessary to betray only the right form;
• 7 Step - divide the belt to three identical beams and take a long wire, reincut the average beam several times (so that the broom does not collapse, the position of the wire must be fixed firmly), the left end of the wire to tie the left beam, and the right end is the remaining beam;
• 8 step - to tidy beams need 2 times, the ends of the wire thoroughly cut with pliers, fix their position;
• 9 step - with the help of sharp scissors, end the ends of the pancake so that they look like symmetrically;
• 10 Step - For the convenience of working with a broom, a handle (more precisely, the place where you were tied with a wire) wrap the tape.
