Just sorted out my clipper storage with a cheap foam insert.

I got some craft foam from the store and traced all my blades and guards. Cut out the shapes so each piece fits perfectly in the drawer. No more digging around for the right guard mid-haircut. It's made setting up for each client way faster.

Serious question, a weird power supply issue ate up my whole afternoon yesterday.

Spent a whole weekend once because a loose SATA cable was barely connected.

Had my clipper cord get chewed through by a customer's tiny dog yesterday, mid-fade.

Went cordless after a poodle did the same thing, best choice ever.

Pro tip: An old guy at a gun show in Tulsa taught me a trick for checking a firing pin without taking the bolt apart

Honestly that pencil trick is genius. Tbh I learned something similar for checking headspace in a pinch with a piece of masking tape on a cartridge base. Ngl the old guys at shows have all the best hacks that you just don't see in the manuals. It's all about using what you have on hand to get the job done.
