Specialist Tools

The humble ear scraper/cotton bud replaced by an array of dedicated tools.

Gentleman demonstrated how to make one particular tool. Cut up to 1 cm edge off a razor blade and insert into the tip of a metal handle to become a tiny shank - was used to take a fine layer of skin from inside the ear. The experience was not wholly unpleasant - somewhat like being under local anesthetic and feeling the odd tug or pull on the skin, but not really knowing what is going on.

Somewhat surprising to see head torch join the range of electrical equipment.
