füllen

filling — I tie strong webbing around a package of grey cardboard. After wrapping the webbing around a few times, I pull it tighter. The package collapses. With sweeping movements, I unravel the spool of webbing and then wrap it tighter and tighter around the cardboard. The space of the box is reduced but the object becomes larger and heavier. One can see the exertion involved when I lift the bundle, turn it over on the floor and 
brace my foot against it. After an hour, it has become as big as it was to begin with. 
I cut through the webbing.
