So when you go to the dentist and they give you the brushing and flossing kit every time you depart…in it there is usually a little oval mini dental floss. I use these mini dental floss samples for backpacking. The other day I went to remove the casing from the mini spool in an effort to reduce weight in my backpacking dental kit. After taking off the case from the mini floss, It's struck me immediately that with very little modification, I could use the mini floss case a a new lighter toothbrush bristle guard. It's a PERFECT fit with the ZPacks UL toothbrush. About 2 minutes with a Dremel and a quick cleanup with some steel wool and WALLAH!…done, free, lighter, perfect!
