2 ideas for using an old brush
Sometimes a tool is missing to perform various jobs conveniently and quickly. Many of them can be bought, but to save money, most are easier to make yourself. Let's look at 2 ideas for tools for making a paint brush yourself.
Mini hand saw
To make such a tool, you need to saw off the handle of an old paint brush.
A hole is drilled in it from the sawn end.
Then a jigsaw blade is hammered into it. If the blade is worn out, it can be pulled out and a new one inserted.
Such a tool will allow you to cut wood, metal, plastic and other materials in hard-to-reach places.
As you can see, this is an extremely useful and necessary tool that you can easily take with you and use without electricity.
Glass scraper with replaceable blades
A blank is cut from the aluminum corner.
Its length should be equal to the width of the prepared small door hinge.
On one shelf of the corner, 2 holes are drilled to connect to the hinge. The second one only needs a hole in the center.
Saw a longitudinal hole in the handle of a paint brush with the brush cut off.It is needed to screw the corner.
A door hinge is screwed to the corner on the handle. Before clamping, a trapezoidal blade is inserted into it.
The result is a scraper for cleaning glass or any other smooth material.
To prevent them from cutting themselves, you need to make a cover for the blade. To do this, you need to heat the plastic pipe and squeeze it in a vice.
After the pipe hardens, a cover is cut out from the flattened part.
