The Never-Ending Awl

[Shenster]

For anyone who might use an awl for their leatherwork, and who is sick to death of the little spool continuously running out of thread and having to be replaced, here's a way to make a never-ending awl: Drill a hole through the top and bottom of the awl handle, run the thread off of a spool through the holes, wrap it around the awl spool two or three times, and then on through the needle.

Nifty idea--thanks!
