Aglet

What is a Aglet?

Here are some hints:
They are commonplace and seen everyday
They are normally found in pairs
They are useful to men, women and children alike
They are not purchased seperately but with something
Some homemade ones may be made from  adhesive tape, wax, resin, glue, thread, heat shrink or metal tubing...........










Give up??????



























Those little things at the end of a shoelace are called agets.

I am always amazed at how your mind runs along and gives us things to think about. My first thought are how many are made and where? Peace
