Most people are fearfull of cutting their own hair because they might "Mess it up." So they pay
Big Bucks every few weeks to have it cut for them. Why not build this SIMPLE device for a couple
bucks and you will be able to cut your OWN hair easily without making any "Mess-ups." I have
used this device for YEARS and it works perfectly and easily. You could even do it BLINDFOLDED
and it will come out perfect.
The tool connects to any vacuum cleaner hose (the "suction" end) and all you do is snip the scissors
a bunch of times all around making sure to keep clipping untill all hair is uniformly cut. The tool keeps the
scissors a uniform distance away from the scalp... so the outcome is predictably PERFECT.
This tool is probably better suited for men than for women... unless they want a very short haircut.
This tool is the 3rd or 4th one i have built and it is much improved over earlier ones I built. This features
easy construction with common items PLUS the CD protects your ears from any danger of being snipped.
This is because the scissors does not protrude anywhere! All the cutting is done between the CD's so it
would be difficult to cut yourself. This tool is NOT recommended to use on pets, because a dogs EARS could
be sucked into the scissors chamber and you don't want to hurt your pet using this. Now let's take a look at
the ITEMS NEEDED listing in the next step.

Signing UpStep 1Items Needed Listing:
The items needed to build this are very cheap and easily obtainable. Here's the list:
1--- roll of mostly used electrical tape. Keep the cardboard core, you will need it.
1 ---Epoxy quick setting glue or liquid nails glue.
7--- popsicle sticks. 6 of them should be rather flat.. not curved. 7th one is used for glue mixing/applying
2--- cd's or dvd's blank or junk ones.
1--- PVC fitting. I used a 1-inch with threaded end. Anything that can be electric taped to the hose will work
1--- rubber band or small piece of wire to hold the scissors in place
1--- discarded vacuum cleaner hose. A small lightweight one that is flexible is best, but any will work
1--- scissors of average quality. Not too long . They must NOT stick out the end of the CD for safety reasons.
1--- home vacuum cleaner.. the one you already own.
Thats about it! Once you get the parts together, it only takes about 30 minutes to build the hair-cut-attachment.
