I have often thought about a way of displaying my WW2 and Vietnam artifacts; and thought a belt like this on my hat-rack may be way.

Pressure at 5,000 feet below sea level is over ONE-TON at which a tennis ball would be rather "smushed,"
- Doc_Cottom commented on botzendesign's instructable D.I.Y Ultra Quiet Shop compressor from a refrigerator motor (compressor)
There are dozens of 12V emergency auto air compressors available. Harbor Freight has a 100PSI for $34 that I have used for years. I've also have a conventional 5 gal, 120 PSI that was less than $100.I do my air brush work with the large compressor, with dual regulators, and a dryer to prevent water drops in my paint. Charge the big compressor up until is shuts off, and there will be enough air to air brush for several hours before you have to turn it back on.

- Doc_Cottom commented on schnurrbart's instructable The Pallet Bible: Finding, Inspecting, and Dismantling Pallets
You can often get good clean pallets from around truck stops. A shipper loads his stuff on pallets, the customer makes the driver "de-depallettize the load, and the driver must take the empty pallets with him/her. The next load requires a clean trailer, which means no pallets, so the driver gets rid of the pallets by dumping them in truck stops. Areas where produce (veggies,) are is one of these places.
View Instructable »Harbor Freight Tools has a planner blade sharpener for a very reasonable price. Dad used one in his Sharpening Shop, and though it would wear out a little faster than his Foley-Belsaw "professional grade" tools cost THOUSANDS of dollars it was still more profitable to use the (Chinese) stuff.
I have made and used 5-gallon bucket seats of many variations for years, perhaps the most versatile items ever made by man!
