I used to work in a shop that had metal cups like that and they had tops on them with a slot for the brush. It kept them from filling up with chips.

Good idea Tom. I might see what I can come up with this weekend.

I tried to order one of those from some guy on the internet one time I don't have a cup and he has my money, then a guy said they cost to much for that they are and said he used a pop bottle so I finally hit the right bottle with COKE, Pepsi won't work, and.

...then a guy said they cost to much for that they are ...

Well, either the guy has never used one or he doesn't know how to use one. I find them to work very well and at $5 they are not what I would call expensive, especially considering it's a one time buy. Anyway, to each his own. Smile

wish I had of received the one I paid for, but we all loose some, I happened to stumble on to the coke bottle deal. Heck I see some guys are happy with a soup can.

I think it was more of him being more set in his ways and not wanting to spend the 5 bucks.Big Grin
