Today I added a handle to a stainless steel pot, 11cm approx. 4 cup capacity. The pot is a cheapo from china, flimsy until I added a ridge. I used a picture hanging clip. Removed the d-ring and mounted it to the pot with tiny machine screws and nuts. Temporary fix until I find my pop rivet gun. The handle is from a Toaks titanium pot. Only one is needed to lift and pour water into a freezer bag. I have a couple 10 cm Imusa Mugs that I will make the same modification to.

How did you add the ridge to that pot?

With a DIY hand operated machine. The pot is a cheep Chinese thin walled pot I got off ebay. The ridge adds a lot of strength to the thin material.
