Just a little trick I picked up along the way.I use extra chop sticks from take out orders for a few things. First I scrape a piont on them and then slide an aligator clip onto the end and CA glue it on.I use it to hold small parts when painting. It helps keep overspray away from your fingers. You can roll them in your hand to evenly paint the parts all 360 degrees.Then I have holes drilled in the top of my work bench that only go down far enough to hold up the chop stick. Also I will take my hammer and pound the ends about an 1/2 to 1 inch down from the end till they're all frayed up like a paint brush.I use it to clean my basher trucks in hard to reach spots where an old tooth brush will not fit or it is too sticky to blow off with compressed air.Like under a T-Maxx fuel tank. When your done with them or they are all dirtyed up you just toss them out and get a few more next take out night.Later,WrenchHead.
