Jaimie Johnston on the Engineering Matters podcast: #34 crisis shelter for mass displacement

Shamrock straw toppers from.

They’re pretty much the sharpest, easiest-to-use scissors ever and they’re made to keep your hands safe when you’re cutting through things like sheet metal that end up with a really sharp edge.The angle that these snips make with the plastic packaging keeps your fingers safe, and the fact that they’re so sharp and so strong means that you won’t struggle, slip, and accidentally cut yourself.. To open the clamshell packaging, just cut carefully around the perimeter of the packaging until you can safely and comfortably remove whatever it is you’re trying to get at!.

Even if you don’t think you’ll be cutting any tin at any time in the near future, I really recommend that you.pick up a pair of these tin snips.and keep them in your broom closet or junk drawer or somewhere safe that you can still get at them on a regular basis.

I’m pretty sure I’m going to end up using these at least once a week now!They’re great for getting into toy packaging as well!

We all know how frustrating that stuff can be!.

Looking ahead to the Holiday season and all the extra packaging that seems to come into our homes around that time of year, I’m hoping that this knowledge will save a few fingers from having to go to the ER for stitches!.I think they were about $2 for a pack of 2.. All I had to do was measure out where I wanted each hook and mark it off on the board.

Then I just drilled in a couple of screws for each hook and 10 minutes later it was done!.Why do they even sell pre-made boards of hooks in stores?

It’s just irresponsible..I ended up using it on the wall in my mudroom.. It’s great for holding skipping ropes, dog leashes, wet towels, and stuff like that.. Usually in the Summer this area is just a big mess of toys and outdoor gear, but now it’s just a little more organized.
