Replaceable CO2 canister file handle

Hello dear readers and the inhabitants of our site!
Each hand tool requires its own handle, but what to do, for example, with a set of files, or other small tools that you do not have to use every day?

In this article, the author of the YouTube channel "Glavnyiy Mehanik" will tell you how to make a simple handle for such tools from an empty spray can.

This homemade product will take you a few minutes to make it.

Materials
- An empty spray can from a CO2 siphon or air gun.
- Screw M4, long 13 mm
- Plain and wing nut M4.

Instruments, used by the author.
-
- Drills 3 and 4 mm
- Vise, pliers, screwdriver
- Tap M4.

Manufacturing process.
So, for homemade work you will need such an empty spray can from a household siphon.

The author found only a full cylinder, and he decided to release the 8 grams of liquefied gas contained in it. He just pierced the neck with a self-tapping screw.



Then you need to drill the neck of the can with a 4 mm drill.


Further, stepping back slightly from the edge and the descent, the master drills a through hole with a 3 mm drill.


And taps the M4 thread.

Now you need to screw the screw into the wing nut from the side of the flags.

Then lock it with a regular M4 nut



That's all, a small and convenient quick-release handle for files is ready. The file handle fits completely inside the can. A change of needle file occurs in a few seconds. For greater convenience, a heat-shrink tubing can be worn on the cylinder and it can be seated. Then the tool will slide less in the hand.




In addition to files in such a device, you can clamp small drills and marking fixtures.
Thanks to the author for a simple but useful tool for small tools!
All good mood, good luck, and interesting ideas!

I have been using such cylinders as pens not only for needle files for about forty years.

I have already had this advice in my articles. The sizes of a set of a dozen files file at times.
A toothbrush handle works wonders. Drill, heat the handle of the file and put on a hot one. Cheap, cheerful, budget.
