Steps

Clean the tyre
Thoroughly clean the tyre with soap and water, scrubbing away dirt and debris. Allow the tyre to dry completely to ensure it is easy to work with.
Cut the tyre
Using a utility knife, carefully make a cut along one side of the tyre, creating an opening where the hose will be stored.
Sand the edges
After cutting the tyre, sand the cut edges with sandpaper to remove any sharp or rough areas, ensuring safety during use.
Drill mounting holes
Mark and drill holes into the tyre for mounting. Make sure they align with the structure (post or wall) where you'll attach the tyre.
Mount the tyre
Secure the tyre to the chosen structure using heavy-duty screws or bolts. Ensure the tyre is firmly attached and stable.
Paint the tyre
If desired, paint the tyre using outdoor spray paint. Apply multiple light coats for even coverage, allowing drying time between each coat.
Install the hose
Finally, place your garden hose inside the tyre, wrapping it neatly around the interior to keep your garden organized.
