Fahrenheit 451

I was doing the good boy routine and was vacuuming the house. I went to put a hose attachment on and the attachment piece broke. I got a little ticked, but kept working.
Later, I was vacuuming and the handle broke off in my hand. This was about the 4th thing to snap off the vacuum in its short life and I decided that was one too many. Somehow, the vacuum managed to get broken significantly more after that
I figured I might be able to trade some of the leftovers at a used vacuum place for a discount and disassembled the remains. One of the first things I came across was this:



It's only 2.25" diameter, but the angles work great. Just for grins I took it and placed it on my 2nd gen 4Runner and it clears the door and hood and would plop right in place with some cutting. It even has a pocket in the back you could set up as a rain drain to prevent excess water from getting in.
I doubt I'll use it, but heck if you are into cheap fixes (other than the cost of cheap vacuum ) this could be the thing for you LOL!
Ok, back to work. Maybe I'll just sweep something. I don't usually break the broom.

You know, you seriously might be on to something here. Not as a permanent snorkel, but how about strictly for emergency crossings? Cool idea.
