Paperclips - NLC

Post by GregR » Wed Jan 30, 2008 5:13 pm

So, how many uses do you reckon a paperclip gets before its turned into something artistic by someone?

Are you a paperclip 'bender'?

Are you just a bender? :lol:

I seem to recall being told once that if you straighten a paperclip, then heat it up, it'll reform to its original shape...

Somehow I managed to read the whole topic so closer to 2 minutes here...

On a related side note, I bought my dad James Bond 007 paper clips as a stocking filler, weird things, shaped like the 00 and the 7 from the logo...
