This is not an innovative tip but still it may be of use to some. I wanted to make a fancier brush for the bandsaw but this looks like it will work as good. Always going for the KISS principle.

And the leftover part works really well as a small file handle.

Anyone know if toothpaste makes a good lubricant? ;)

Now that is nothing if not innovative. Actually that is great use for handle for those little files! Hows that ole saying go"was not want not!:D
 
Naw not a quench but you won't believe the hamons when used as a clay coat.
 
This photo confirms my suspicion... Patrice is secretly a hand model!!! I knew there was a reason he's always wearing disposable gloves! ;)

Great use of something that's otherwise junk. :thumbup: :cool: I buy packs of toothbrushes at the dollar store because I use them for things like clearing away filings and getting buffing compound out of funky spots. :)
 
You got me Nick. :o In my defense, I use what I can cause my ugly mug is surely not going to generate much modeling revenue. ;)

Glad you guys like the idea.:thumbup:
