Let's see what I have "stolen" from my husband's shop for my sewing room.
A drywall square......it's like a t-square from drafting class. Only it much larger (48" straight edge w/ 12" metal "t") Speed squares (one large one small) I didn't "lift" those, but a gift from Hubby. A telescoping magnet wand An assortment of clamps, although some have ended up back in the shop. A few pieces of expensive hardwood. In 2" x 4", 4" x 4", 6" x 6" sizes for pounding on in various crafting endeavors. As well as putting in snaps. A small vise and anvil in the garage, also for above mentioned snaps. |

Ok, not much makes me go hummmmmm, but tothill your "unusual tool" has my mind in a whirl. Reminds me of something that happened when my kids were little. I was in a mini mart on a Marine Corps base and my son had just learned to sound out words. He spotted a package of condoms near the register and sounded out the name "Trojans" in a very loud voice. Then he asked, Mom, what's a Trojan? and the Marine ahead of us in line responded, yes, Mom. What's a Trojan? It seemed like to me that the mini mark became deathly quiet as everyone waited to hear my definition of a Trojan. My response was "It's a horse. See the picture on the package." OMG! I could not check out fast enough.
So funny - and quick thinking! |

Binder clips and paper clips to hang my pressing pillows:

That works well on rugs, too.

I use a flashlight like a 'spot light' to find dropped items. Since I'm color challenged, stuff just disappears/blends into the patterns of my rugs. Scanning the floor with a spot light makes most things visible for me.

Neat idea. What is a pressing pillow, and how are they used?
