IKEA hack, or thrifty tape dispenser fix? Just call me Macgyver!

So if you didn’t know, I’m MacGyver. Seriously. I will try and kludge a problem with something readily at hand. It’s a talent, it’s a gift, it’s a calling.

Hehehhe… just kidding.

Here is my latest; a tape dispenser that lost its stick-thing.

I immediately scoured my surroundings for something suitable. I found a truant IKEA pencil — a perfect fit for the dispenser’s slot — and promptly shortened it with an exact-o knife.

Needless to say, I was pretty proud of this small accomplishment; I made an item that would have otherwise ended up trashed useful again. Take that, garbage pile!
