I hope this was just for demonstration purposes because if you try to move those pipes, they will self-stack into a pyramid then would half to be re banded. to pick them up

We used a hand operated bander for steel bands on pallets of table grapes packed 23lbs into tkv wood boxes. The finishing act to cut the band left a pierced end on the strap looking like it was braided. Of course, that was a few years ago. We also cooled the grapes with an ice fired cooler insulated with sawdust. We could cool about 200,000 lbs of grapes overnight to 40 *F. That was a few years ago, before the time of ammonia coolers built with tilt-up concrete.
