Every now and then I come up with something that I think is a brilliant idea, but no one else does.
While standing in the checkout line at Home Depot I say a pneumatic tool set on sale. I started to think how nice it would be to have this for my shop. Then I started to think "What is it that makes pneumatic tools better than electric tools in the shop?". Which led me to wonder why just the shop. Why not the whole house....why not the kitchen?
Now I like my kitchen tools. Food processor, blender, and KitchenAid mixer all have an important place in the kitchen. Seeing that I actually own a KitchenAid mixer gives an indication of the importance I put on my kitchen
.
So here is my vision....Much like people have a central vacuum in their house (say in the garage), I want a central compressor in my house with compressed air lines to various places. In the kitchen I'd like to see several of those quick disconnect fittings, and a whole bunch of pneumatic kitchen tools....A pneumatic blender, a pneumatic egg beater, a pneumatic meat tenderizer, pneumatic poultry shears even!
Extend it to the rest of the house, too. A compressed-air outlet in the bathrooms could power pneumatic brushes for cleaning the toilet or scrubbing grout. No worries of electrocution! It could even power your toothbrush....after-all the dentist already uses pneumatic tools. How about a pneumatic powered beater for that central vacuum, too?
The possibilities are truly endless. I know that if they made 'em, I'd buy 'em.
