I have trouble with those cords that have the 110 to 12 volt converter half way from the inlet plug to the connection. A lot of weight in the middle that must be supported.Dizzy-Dickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14150939928800538404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3297986341537650775.post-5043163036857647932011-01-22T06:32:35.798-06:002011-01-22T06:32:35.798-06:00Now a days, the cord that feeds power to an electr...Now a days, the cord that feeds power to an electronic device is heavier than the device itself, due to it being made from light plastic rather than a more weighty substance like Bakelite. <br /><br />I use these binder clips on the edge of a table and pass the cords through the wire to prevent them from dragging the device off the table.<br /><br />I used up my last one on the computer mouse which continually tried to commit suicide by diving off the table onto the ceramic tile floor.<br /><br />Unused cords can be left at the ready, at the edge of the table for easy access. <br /><br />Gotta buy another bag full.Ernesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00316124532748966612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3297986341537650775.post-81847000141808443372011-01-21T21:34:18.728-06:002011-01-21T21:34:18.728-06:00Frann, You are so very right and that is a shame. ...Frann, You are so very right and that is a shame.

But they love to sit up there and watch out of the windows.<br /><br />By the way, I have a CD hanging up with a string and a binder clip, as a toy for them.<br /><br />Yes, as Gypsy said, the uses are endless.<br />Happy Trails, Penny, TXLakeConroePenny,TXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00260039376684295639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3297986341537650775.post-36920477171810655072011-01-21T11:43:13.038-06:002011-01-21T11:43:13.038-06:00Hey Ben, that is a good idea.

Binder clips are my favorite and my choice for almost all uses.<br /><br />Gypsy, You are correct. Endless, is that anything like infinity?

I use them as clothes pins when I need a really strong clothes pin. I keep a box of clothes pins on hand for light duty work.Oldfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14688289425207257034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3297986341537650775.post-39424043665753885302011-01-21T10:15:13.100-06:002011-01-21T10:15:13.100-06:00Love em,, like you.

I had problems with birds eating my peaches, so I drilled a hole in an old the edge of a CD, ran a string through and tied it to the handle of the clip. Then clipped the clip around a tree limp. The CD reflecting the sun scares the birds off.Ben in Texashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09068952818736489066noreply@blogger.com
