How to Avoid Torn Bacon, and Other Household Hacks from 1957
In 60 years, bacon packaging has not improved
The Household Hacker got his hands on a 1957 publication called "1,001 How-to Ideas," i.e. hacks. He then picked out 16 of them and demonstrated them on video to see if they'd still be useful today.
Enter a caption (optional)As with all "life hacks" roundups, a couple of these are just dumb, but several appear useful. I was impressed by the impromptu flashlight base and the steel wool refilling trick. I was also tickled to see that bacon packaging technology has not improved at all in 60 years, and the bacon-centric one is something I look forward to trying.

Ugh. The "bracket" on a paintbrush is called a ferrule. The "bar" in a hinge is a pin. Some handy tips, to be sure, but those flubs made me wonder just how handy the presenter was.
