Retractable bodkin

Recommended Posts

I made a retractable bodkin from one of those pencils that you twist the point to make lead come out of it. I took out the eraser, then the wire spring type thing inside. Twist the little black plastic thing off of the wire, and remove the lead. Replace it with a needle, and re assemble the whole thing.

 

Hope this makes sense, Ill post a pic later tonight
