One curious incident pushed me to speed up the manufacture of knife sharpeners. I needed a bar for sharpening braids, a boat is nicknamed.
Its shape and size perfectly suited to the implementation of one idea.
But there was no bar! There was a loss two days later in the drawer of the kitchen table in the form of one half.
The answer from his wife was prepared in advance: - There is no one to grind knives in the house, so you have to deal with the most non-masculine business.
- Did the bar break with great zeal?
- Mom came in, she also has no one to sharpen a knife with - she had to share a tool.
I find a simple sharpener on the Internet and decide to do it.
For this I needed: a wooden rectangular rail,
two disposable used lighters with wheels,
pliers
wire cutters
hammer,
a couple of carnations
hacksaw,
piece of sandpaper
and my man’s hands.
I sawed off a bar of arbitrary, but convenient size, from the rail,
processed it with a burr.
I pulled the wheels of ignition devices out of the lighters,
and the steel wheels themselves with pliers
freed from aluminum pads for convenient scrolling of the wheel with your finger.
If it is difficult to remove the linings with some pliers, we take one more.
The nail was nailed to a wooden block with a stud.
Now we must not forget one nuance - the wheels with the bevels of their teeth should be directed to each other.
To do this, notches are made on the side of the wheel. If the left wheel is nailed down to the bar, then the right wheel is nailed down. He nailed the second wheel with a nail and proceeded to test the structure made in half an hour.
I inserted the beginning of the knife blade (from the handle) between the wheels and spent a dozen and a half times on myself.
Then so much more and the knife began to cut a sheet of paper. I did not expect such an effect!
I drew an arrow on the bar - instructions on which side to move the knife and handed under the tree spouse.
The next day, the wife advertised her mother-in-law with might and main, instructing her on how to use it.I sighed, looked through the lumen of my disposable lighter - still full.
