Abstract

Abstract A method for constructing a handle of thermoplastic material by forming the material at an elevated temperature into an open loop having a plurality of co-planar sides and a cross-section in the shape of an inverted "T," and by cooling the loop essentially free of restraint on the movement of the sides of the loop so that as the loop cools the sides of the loop will tend to bow concavely relative to the interior of the loop, and the corner angles between contiguous sides of the loop will tend to become more acute, thereby bringing closer together the ends of the loop.
