Greetings,
T'other day I got a little duster at the grocery store for a buck. Twirl
the handle between your palms to electrostatically charge the mop. Looks
like a critter from Dr. Seuss. Works like a charm for getting dust off the
tools hanging on the wall, between the bars of a Ledu lamp, and other
little nooks and crannies that are a pain to dust or vacuum. (Hey, gotta
have something to do while the brads dry.)
While I'm at it, I'll mention a little round basting brush I found in the
cookware section of the same grocery store. It looks just like the $4.50
detailing brush in the GarrettWade catalog (minus the cup hook), but it's
$1.39. Works great for getting dust and fine shavings out of a plane--you
know, that dust trap around the frog adjusting screw.

It's even worse if you're a woodworker AND a model railroader :-).

Good tips. SWMBO is always on my case when we shop because I come up with
(to her) the most odd reasons to buy things... reasons for which they aren't
meant. Most of the ideas aren't my own as they come from the wreck or from
the websites of the wreck's patrons.

These things, though, actually pick up the dust so it can be disposed of.
AC just blows it around and it settles right back where it came from
unless it can find a freshly finished surface instead.
