This gadget is an air powered suction vacuum. The military maintainers use these things by the gross for FOD prevention and are really great for sucking chips and dirt out of very little spaces. I've found it's great for using left-over compressor air at the end of the build session. |

Not the greatest picture, but these are various lead-filled bags used for adjusting soft weight belts for SCUBA diving. I had a whole bunch of these around in various weights (2,3,4 and 5 pound bags). These are nylon bags filled with lead shot and are very handy for holding parts in position on the bench. Available at your local dive shop. |

the links to download the individual word docs for whatever you need.
