Bone Folder Review
In this Cool Tools video review I’m going to show you a bone folder (Amazon link), or as I like to call it THE BONE FOLDER! I learned about this from Kevin Kelly’s review on the Cool Tools blog. If you’re interested in picking up this exact one, using the Amazon link in the description helps to support my videos and the Cool Tools blog.
Robert Larson Plastic Center Finder Review
I learned about the Robert Larson 800-2875 Plastic Center Finder (Amazon link) from maker Ben Light, who uses it to drill out the center in the tin can robots he builds. Online, I see a lot of videos of jewelry designers using these. Woodworkers use them on finding centers on dowels or centering up work to chuck into a lathe.
