Scrappile Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 (edited) I always look at ways to reuse things. This is one I just came up with a few weeks ago. On my Hegner scroll saw I have a tool to use on the lower blade clamp to clamp the blade. When I first got the saw, I just tied a shoelace to the tool so when it fell off my stand I could retrieve it without bending down to pick it you. This is my new solution. Can you guess where I got this holder to hang the tool in?? It is the black piece on the side of the saw stand. It is a piece of plastic that came on the ink cartridge for my HP printer. It is like it was made for what I used it for. I drilled a hole in the top to put the tool in and screwed it to the side of the stand.
