This is a topic where we intend to list MyTT threads dedicated to some helpful hints/tips etc in the vein of "pimp out my gear" Wink. Basically if we have a thread with some help and instructions on "how to make my TT equipment work better" or "which TT auxiliary gear works best for this" or even simply "how do I do this standard TT-related task", post it here and we will (upon consideration) list it in the title post. Thank you!!

Replying to this, let me modestly quote one of my older son's favorite phrases:

Did you add it already to one of the rubber cutting threads? If not, then please do that and it will be therefore "covered"!

I remind everyone that this thread is not really for posting questions on specific gear issues - here you simply suggest MyTT threads to add to the lists above, or if you need to raise a question then do it in one of those threads. Thank you all for making MyTT great!

Scissors, of course. with  knife you have dangers of crumbling the sponge, which I hate...I'd rather have the hairline strings of uncut sponge that come with using scissors than an ugly rumbling sponge.

JimT, is this the right place to post?
