Title: Spicy new dustwashers! Pics coming.... err, tonight!
Post by: releasedtruth on December 08, 2006, 05:32:24 pm
Well, I wanted to have some super slick dust washers to go with my SlikStik stainless steel sticks so I found 2 $.99 pizza cutters with a 2 1/8" wheel and popped them off. Then I covered it in duct taps to protect it while I drilled out the whole to fit around the stick. A little filing on the edges and voila! a stainless steel dustwasher. I messed the first one up cause I didn't tape it up first so I need to buy another one tonight to get the pair going. Will take pics of course. Metal is your friend, especially when you use as much of it as I do. If you're looking for that added pop for your chromed up sticks, can't beat the price!

No concerns about slicing open your hand if you slide it along the edge?

I doubt a .99 pizza cutter is very sharp.

I imagine that's what the "filing on the edges" part was for.    ;)

Ahhhh, I thought he was talking about the center hole he drilled out, but you're probably correct.

The edges on cheap pizza cutters are sharper than others, trust me. I got it all dremeled up though.
