The “small round hole” on the
Nail clippers are a common household item, mainly used to trim nails, but they have other clever uses too—especially with the small round hole at the end. Here are a few surprising ways to use it:
Keychain Attachment: “We can put the keychain into the small hole,” allowing the nail clipper to hang securely. This ensures you don’t lose the clipper unless the entire keychain is lost.
Wire Bending: Insert a wire into the small round hole to bend it with ease. “You only need to use a small amount of force,” making it safer than using your fingers.
Screwdriver Alternative: The small metal piece often used for cleaning nails can also act as a screwdriver for small screws. “You can use this small iron sheet to unscrew the screw” when other tools aren’t available.
Opening Boxes: The sharp tip of the nail file can be used to “cut the tape on shipping boxes,” providing an alternative tool for package opening.
