I hang onto these, cleaned of course - they make great little bottle
brush type cleaning tools -
used one today to clean 'cage' around a tabletop fan - also to clean
a/c filter guard -
have used 'em to get into tight areas in bathroom, like under the
faucet - better than an old toothbrush, in many cases.

I think this could start a new thread, about what items you use for an
unusual purpose.

For example, I suggest using a Pringles box to iron very thin round-armed
ladies dresses. You can se what I mean on

I just discovered that they make a dandy cleaning tool for the narrow
indentation in the tops of Tubbermaid lids.
