Let's take a closer look today at the office supplies that we encounter every day. Perhaps there are other ways to use them usefully.
Fasten documents with an old stapler There is often a need to temporarily fasten documents so that in the future it would be possible to remove this paper clip painlessly for them. On older models of staplers, it was possible to turn the back panel 180 degrees (the original and inverted position are shown in the photos below).
As a result, it gives this result (it is fastened with a regular stapler on top, slightly modified below).
Separate hanging folders with paper clips If your archive is organized in this way, then paper clips will be great help to you in structuring and separating hanging folders.
Use a paper clip instead of a zipper Don't be surprised by the fact that paper clips are mentioned by us most often. This speaks only about one thing — their great functionality. Often a fastener breaks on a jacket or boots, which a paper clip can always temporarily replace.
Erase the permanent marker with a dry erasing marker. To do this, you need to write with a dry marker on top of the permanent one, and then the inscription will be erased.
Keep all cables together The same paper clip will help to do this. Connect the ends of the ever-dangling cables with a paper clip to something stationary on your desk. A table lamp is quite suitable.
