homemade nail adjustment tools

[Mr. Takeya]

For all the lazy folks out there, I think i've devised a pretty cheap and easy method of creating your own ball gauge in 5 minutes (and with ordinary household items).

Tools:
-Standard #2 wood pencil with eraser
-Superglue
-Pachinko ball (use one in poor condition; you won't get this guy back)

1. Secure the pachinko ball so that the tiny dude won't escape from your grasp.

2. Apply an even coat of Superglue to the eraser of your pencil.

3. Hold the pencil firmly against the pachinko ball for a good 3-4 minutes. I did this by pushing the pencil down onto the ball. Also, it's important that the eraser be squishy enough so that it can mold itself to the roundness of the pachinko ball!!!

4. Once the ball and eraser are bonded, consider placing more super glue along the edges where ball and eraser meet just to give it a really good seal.

Ta Da!
