Tools and Materials Needed

• Blackspur Bradawl
• Piece of wood or material you will be working on
• Workbench or stable surface

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare Your Workspace: Ensure your workspace is clean and free of any obstructions. Place the wood on a stable workbench.
2. Mark the Spot: Use a pencil to mark where you want to create a hole or start a screw on the wood.
3. Grip the Handle: Hold the plastic handle of the bradawl firmly with your dominant hand.
4. Position the Blade: Place the pointed blade on the marked spot, ensuring it is perpendicular to the wood surface.
5. Apply Pressure: Carefully push the bradawl into the wood, applying steady pressure. Twist slightly to help penetrate the surface.
6. Create the Hole: Continue applying pressure until you achieve the desired hole depth.
7. Remove the Bradawl: Gently pull the bradawl straight out of the hole to prevent enlarging it unnecessarily.

After Use

Troubleshooting Tips

• If the bradawl does not penetrate easily, try sharpening the blade or applying more pressure.
• For hard materials, drill a pilot hole first before using the bradawl.
