Bob, it looks pretty swish now.

Did you use it to stir the paint?  :)

I've cut the end off it twice, but it's still too short

Hi Bob

You've cleaned that up nicely.

But what does it do?  It looks like it ought to be sitting on a jar stirring something up.

Beautiful job on that!

Yes, I think you mentioned, first post, a watch cleaning motor, so great curiosity about how it works?
I love it when a Plan B comes together!
