In 1965 I was shot in the face by one of those Air Blasters. Some unknown kid running around in a Park must have recognized a fellow monster and shot me. It was cool.
From twenty feet away, it felt like a ball that had mass. Don't know how to describe it except it felt like a ball.

I made light weight bodies for my Thunderjet cars with one of these Mattel Vac-U-Forms. Heat plate on one side, vacuum pad on the other. Heat the plastic sheet, flip it over and pump a handle that sucks the hot plastic around an object. My folks gave me so much. My friends and I had fun with this thing.

That Water Wiggle is so obviously dangerous how would anyone make that?

I had a customer with a huge collection of tether cars. I would admire them every time i was at his shop.
