i have drilled a small hole in the handle
of one of my bison tools.
i inserted a tiny dowel.
that tool does not roll off my work table
any longer.
it fell and broke last year.
and, with phil's help and guidance, it was
brazed back together...good as new. (by me)

but, it does not roll any longer.

My bison tools reside in a rack that came from a dishwasher - the
silverware rack.
The rule is never lay it down. Only put it in the rack or in the
deep splash pan old my wheel.

I guess I am a purist. I would never drill a hole in the handle or
fltten it. The simple purity of the design! Ahh!

Stock up on Bison tools! Everybody should have spares. What would we
do if something happened to Phil? He is the sole source.
