Protect Your Sharp Tools and Your Fingers
Don't throw away those wine bottle corks!
Instructions
How many times are you digging through your tools and... OUCH!... stab yourself with something sharp or pointy, like an awl or scalpel? Mostly because you lost the little rubber or plastic protector at the end of said tool? (Photo 1)
I can't remember when or where I heard about this but it works great and you can always find your awls and scalpel because of this tip.

Corks.
Yes, that is what I said. Corks from wine bottles or champagne.

Simply shove the sharp end of the tool into the cork and you are safe and protected. Save those wine bottle corks! Or ask your friends to save them for you!
