Suspension straps attached to the roof hold contraption in place.

Besides looking very strange…and perhaps having your head ripped off in an accident…not a bad idea (for 1931)!

How does the VIP VAC work? It clips into your standard pool pole like any other vacuum head, it is just much smaller, which gives it more direct suction power for getting those larger and heavier items.

I use the VIP VAC every time I vacuum, it is quick and easy to spot clean, and its the ONLY way to get the dirt around and on our pool steps. (as you will see in the video)

Check out the video below to see the VIP VAC in action in our pool!

Terrafugia Transition cruising speed in the air is 115 mph, with a 460 mile range. It requires 1/3 mile runway to take off and can fit in a standard garage.

Walk up to a car door, open up a car door, get in and sit in a car seat. How cool is that, if you’ve climbed in and out of small airplanes before you realize what a nice feature that is. In side the cockpit of the Terrafugia you have all the normal displays as a normal airplane, and a normal car. A little bit about the controls… when in the road mode, there is a steering wheel, gas pedal, and a brake. When you change into airplane mode, your feet go out on 2 rudder pedals, the stick comes up from the floor and folds up, then you have a stick, throttle, and rudder pedals, just like any other airplane, so that any pilot can fly it. Any driver can drive it… and any pilot can fly it.

I want to pull up to somebody’s driveway and unfold the wings and have an airplane in their drive…and wonder how it got there.

I used to constantly take my gloves off and on, to get out keys, and do little things I couldn’t with bulky gloves on. I found with these ColdSnap gloves I can just about grab or use anything I need to.

The best use so far has been for Snowmobile gloves! Yes, they are absolutely perfect for snowmobiling. A great grip is very important when riding, and most other winter gloves don’t offer such a great grip. They also offer just the right amount of cold protection. Since most snowmobiles have heated grips these days, you don’t need extra think gloves.The Tool Handz ColdSnap fit the bill perfect.

The BeerTender works with kegs made by Heineken. As of now you can only get Heinken and Heineken Light kegs. (I have tried one keg of each and I prefer Heineken over Heineken Light) Supposedly they are coming out with different beers in the near future. You may see other mini-kegs available, but the difference is that the Heineken DraughtKeg is pressurized.

The BeerTender is really a small fridge that surrounds the keg and keeps the beer at the optimal temperature of 39 degrees. There is an indicator light on the top of the machine that will light up once this temperature has been reached.

The ideas is to mix the right temperature and pressure for the best beer experience. And who doesn’t want that! It says the beer will stay fresh for up to 30 days once tapped.

It is very simple to use, takes maybe a minute to install a new keg into the BeerTender. Watch the video below for a demonstration of how to change a keg out on the BeerTender.

To my surprise there were no such products readily available. I did later on find some online, but who wants to wait? When you can build one yourself cheap and easy!

I found a site that detailed exactly what I wanted to do. I followed their directions to the letter.

You need a basic dimmer switch, probably around $6, a short household extension cord $1.50, and an electrical box, these are about 45 cents. You will also need 2 wire nuts,  I already had those,  but will only cost you a few cents if you need to buy some.

Basically you want to spice the dimmer between one of the wires on your new extension cord and enclose the wiring inside the box.

It took only about 5 minutes of “wiring” it was done and worked just as I had imagined.

The other bonus to having your lights running at a dimmed level is it increases the life of your lights, and saves you some $ on electricity!

Want to make one too? Check out this site for the directions that I followed.
