Thank you, aaradhya.manne. Volunteering for community health brings interesting problems to my attention. I like to solve problems by giving people tools they can use to solve it themselves.
Do you mean, so the water doesn't fall on the ground?I showed in the video how to put a second bucket on the floor, under the spigot, to catch the water. Does that solve the problem?

The wheeled pulley is an elegant piece of hardware. You might want to add a second one, to either the right or left, so the foot pedal can pull straight down, and so water doesn't fall on the foot pedal (or your foot).
I agree, soap in a stocking is more practical. I used soap on a string because the soap is more visible. You had a smart scout master.

I completely agree, celtwolf! Soap in an old nylon stocking is better than soap on a string.I filmed it that way to make the soap more visible. And, in retrospect, it starts conversations like this one. I hope you have a chance to try making one. Or a bunch!
