Haircuts made easy

The term cruft at MIT can either refer in the present day to old technology left behind to be later reused for future projects or for old alumni.

The past tense verb "crufted" means to gather old tech and reuse it in a new way or to graduate and come back to see old classmates at MIT.

I crufted this WAHL clipper set so I can cut my own hair, other people's hair, or other people can cut my hair.

It seemed to work out well as I had a good friend remove my ducktail bits of hair on my neck last night with fine precision.
