A minor complaint would be that the handle is a little short, allowing only 2-3 of my fingers to grip the handle. This isn&#8217;t a big deal as it&#8217;s not uncomfortable and you don&#8217;t really need to have all four fingers on your toothbrush anyway.<br \/>\nI also experimented with stretching out the toothbrush handle while the plastic was hot and pliable however found the handle proved uncooperative, snapping back to it&#8217;s original shape before I could manage it around the bottle neck or would break from the stretching. After a few attempts it was clear that\u00a0producing\u00a0consistent, elongated, hooked handles was something that I couldn&#8217;t replicate effectively.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Good luck!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I like brushing my teeth in the shower but don&#8217;t like how the toothbrush always slips through my shower caddy and onto the floor, I also sometimes forget where I leave my toothbrush when I move it between the shower and the sink.\u00a0I wanted a way to leave my toothbrush in\u00a0the\u00a0shower, not fall onto the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":21816,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,6,1834,138],"tags":[47,1818,1948],"class_list":["post-21813","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-1-and-free","category-cheap-crafts","category-man-crafts","category-tutorials","tag-easy","tag-mikeasaurus","tag-toothbrush"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Man Crafts: hooked toothbrush &#187;
