    Default Silly Tip

    Just a little silly, make a little handle and thick superglue or epoxy a pencil sharpener to it, i have several of these hanging around from the roof of my shop so i can just grab one when needed without having to hunt it down, also i have arthritus so holding one of these little sharpeners is a pain at times, just makes it easier, my little tip of the day and boy its fantastic here in the UK again today don't need me wellies in the shop today..LB

    Not silly at all, LB. Thanks for the tip. I can see it being used by several folks. Not just in woodturning sheds.

    Hold on... you folks are telling me you don't sharpen your pencil on the grinder?

    The other day I described to my daughter how to find something in the garage by saying "It's right near my big saw". A few minutes later she came back to ask: "Do you mean the black one, the green one, or the blue one?".

Only there top tips get paid so please mail me for my address to post all cheques, and make them for cash please well no harm in trying.
