So my 12-year-old nephew tried to 'help' me in the shop and now my dovetail jig is covered in glitter glue.
I left him alone for maybe 15 minutes to take a phone call, and when I came back he'd decided my jig was 'too boring' and needed some 'artistic flair,' so has anyone else had a shop assistant with questionable creative instincts?

Consider it a new kind of shop finish. The glitter will probably show up in every joint you cut for the next year, adding a secret sparkle.

Secret sparkle reminds me of the time I spilled glitter glue in my car's cup holder.

That glitter glue is going to be a nightmare to clean out of the cup holder once it dries and starts flaking off onto everything. A little sparkle might be fun at first, but eventually it'll just look like someone's messy craft project went wrong. Better to get it out now with some alcohol wipes or rubbing alcohol.
