Well, I had this problem. I came across an old vac nozzle in the shed and didn't know what to do with it. Any sane person would have thrown it out, but being a Lottie type I thought, 'That's got to be some use.'

With the help of a couple of other items, it's now something else very practical.
Just for fun, have a guess what it ends up as. (The none lottie/garden 'project' took just a couple of min's.)

Sorry............no idea :)

Scissors are a tool, got to let you have that Tony. Good guess for a first go.
I do a fair bit of wallpapering and going up and down ladders doesn't do my ancient knees any good. So...put all the bits together and my legs end up happier extentions!

After wifey takes the scissors and performs a Bobbit ...

... the tube can be used to hold your pen15 in while you tape it back together.

That was an easy one. Here's one I'm on with now. Hope to finish this week-end.
Again, just for fun; Have a go at what this will end up as.

The zip on my deco bag has burst! So the top flap I have plans for. I've got this far so-far. What's it gonna be?

Are you going to use the flap as a strap fastened with the velcro to keep your bag together Ken?

are you making a wallet?

Sinbad7 · « **Reply #15 on:** October 19, 2008, 14:48:53 »

I know what it is............................Ken's making a thong ;D

Emagggie · « **Reply #16 on:** October 19, 2008, 15:12:18 »

;D ;D@ Sinbad. Velcro and 'The Full Monty' come to mind so you could be right.
I keep coming back to have a look but I think I give in now Ken. Any chance of a pic of the finished product?

Sinbad7 · « **Reply #17 on:** October 19, 2008, 16:36:08 »

Hi Emaggie,

I think the clue was in 'all the bits'. The long thick piece will be cut down the middle and velcro'd together for the waist band, the small strips will velcro onto the square and the waist band and the square is for 'all the bits' to sit snuggly in. I do wonder if Ken is planning on joining a choir as this could make him sing in a falsetto voice :o
