    Default Handy Pins

    Found these at a Go-Lo store
    Pkt 3 cost $1.49.

    I bought them to use as centre for a router trammel.

    Plastic section is 50mm high and the pin protrudes 28mm.

    Any suggestions for other uses?

    I've always found them handy as reminders to never enter the workshop without shoes on. My son enjoys leaving them on the floor, along with discarded screws and nails.

    Thats sure is some pin. You could bang them into the wall and hang your coat on them. You would think you could use them for some useful purpose eh?
    Reality is no background music.
