Over the years I had a problem with my hobby knives turning just when I was trying to make that great cut. I love to sit and think a problem out so I came up with this. You all do this already but I thought someone might like it. I put a star washer in to hold it from turning. Works for me.

Hmmm...never thought of doing that. Just have to find one that's big enough but not so wide that you keep hitting it with your fingers. I'll have to try those thin stars I have from electronic switches we never use in customer equipment. Thanks for the suggestion! It's a good one

Wow...next time I find one of those I'll be sure to hang onto it. I've had a lot of "fun" with spinning blades like you described. Ingenious!

| Never had an issue with that but I think it's a slammin' idea for my pin vise caps that keep spinning off as I'm drillin'...
