How to make a Safety pin out of just a paper clip.
You will need:
One paper clip
One pair of needle nose pliers. NOT NEEDED but helpful If they are available.
This can be done in less than a minute.
Now before you say it:
You may think this is useless, when will i ever need to know this crap. But who knows when it could save the day.
If that is the basis of your comment, dont bother.
Take this famous example
Quote:
Buzz Aldrin accidentally knocked off the ascent engine’s arming circuit breaker, which would have prevented them from taking off again.
But the resourceful pilot fixed the switch - with a biro, which he jammed into the switch to make it work, and the mission continued successfully.

This is incredibly simple but could be incredibly useful.
Take your paper clip:
Straighten it out and bend it at the middle bend like so:
Bend the longer end 0.5-1Cm to about 25-35 Degrees as shown:
Bend 1Cm after the previous bend at about 80-100 Degrees like this:
And there you have it: a very easy-to-make safety pin that could be so useful someday.
again if you think this is useless, i dont care and nobody else cares. dont bother letting us know, just keep it to your self and leave.
