Handy Tool

Saw this on another forum and thought it was a good idea and would make things easier for those who do their own work on their rigs.

Wow, that is really cool. I can already think of several instances where that would have come in handy.

I am not one that usually likes most of the so called inventions, but this one might actually work very well. I can think of a couple of drain funnels I could have used it for!
Thanks for the link.

Geez you guys wind up costing me money too often! I just ordered one. Seriously, I have rolled up shiny magazine paper trying to do just what this product does; for the snowblower, motorcycle, and God knows what else. A little expensive but should last forever and solves a multitude of problems.

Definitely a great sustitute instead of umteen different types of funnels. Should be real easy to clean off as well. I know of about 3 things to use it with off the top of my head. Thanks for the info tmmar!

I use a plastic 1/2 gal milk jug and cut to fit. When I am done, I just toss it, no cleaning required.

I use kinda the same idea except I use old 1 liter plastic oil containers and cut to fit, whats nice about them is you keep the cap and when you are done draining whatever just put the cap on and no drips.

The inside layer is lead, the outside a nitrile rubber. I can see why it would stay in place and form fit.

Tossing cut up milk jugs covered with oil? eeeuuuu bad. Those are useful recycle things (and here in Alberta worth 25 cents each!)

Which reminds me I wanted to start a how to recycle on the road thread.

All these years, I've been using pieces of cardboard.
