lol Gertbysea, I have had the not so pleasure of going to to 1 near home, they are an odd bunch. Guns not a good conversation piece here as my partner was organising his gun licence whilst I was in labour with my lastest baby. Sorry his gun licence was the last thing on my mind during a contraction ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

LOL - do you have an armoured tank to drive to the shops?

I think this might be one of the customers:

I have also discovered how great this little M16 brush is for cleaning around the lid and the top of the thermomix. I even went and bought another one for a spare. Very useful around the kitchen and of course I wanted to go into the gun shop again.I am getting addicted to testerone I think.

Gertbysea,  I think you were just looking for an excuse to go back to that gun shop after seeing Thermomixer's photo. ;D ;D ;D  I don't mean Thermomixer but the photo he posted.

Just looking at this I'm tempted to go into our local gun shop to see the the reaction if I asked for a M16 cleaning brush.Knowing how paranoid they are about gun ownership here in the U.K I would be under investigation by the local constabulary. "Please sir it's for my Thermomix"I find that a brush that you supposed to clean a teapot spout with good at getting in and around the blades.There must be a patent waiting to be discovered out there!!

This has become a very humorous topic.  We have lots of gun shops here in my town - being next to a big Air Force base is one reason, it being a bastion of extreme conservatives is another.   
However, I have never shopped in them for a kitchen tool.

I find many of my "kitchen essentials" in the art supply shop.   I have a stippling brush that has long, very stiff bristles that works a treat for getting those little sticky bits out of tight places. 

My favorite pear and apple corer (also for scooping seeds out of cucumbers and zucchini) started life as a clay-sculpting tool and several of my cake decorating items also came from the same source.
The hobby shop adjacent to the art store has also yielded up some neat-o  tools.  I have a couple of large diameter leather punches that work a treat for cutting interesting shapes out of citrus peel (for candying).  One is a daisy shape and the other is a butterfly.

So maybe I'm ultra cheap (or just plain boring) but I got one that works well free at a Tupperware party last week, they have a perfect  one with a nice long handle in the games prize box.   8)
