siphon

A strainer in sink is a device used to get liquid from one place to another without the aid of electricity or batteries. It does so by siphoning the liquid down a tube. Siphons have been around for millennia and are still quite handy today.

The siphon is very old. The ancient Egyptians employed it to carry water from the Nile River to their fields, for irrigation. Siphons were also employed by the Greeks and Romans to transfer water for their aqueducts and fountains.

How to create a homemade siphon for your DIY projects

These days, sink accessories for kitchens find all kinds of uses. They can be used to help clean fish tanks, transfer fuel in cars and move chemicals in factories. Siphons are useful in a number of situations.

Homemade siphons are simple to make and fun to create. You will require a tube (PVC pipe or garden hose, for example), and two containers for the liquid that you will be moving. First, pour the liquid into one pot. Then place one end of the tube into the liquid and suck on the other end until the liquid begins to move. Once it begins to flow, you can shift the tube to the other container and let gravity take over.
