Anyone have any contraptions they use to make life easier? I got tired of airing up my tires and constantly checking the psi with a gauge so I whipped together a few things. If you know air compressors it will make sense.

Air compressors are usefull for many things. You can slide on your grips, air up your tires and my dad made a hydraulic can crusher.

Hydraulic is fluid...
pneumatic is air.
Just saying.
As to contraptions, I have made some tools or modified them to work at the shop I worked at, for myself it hasn't been a whole lot lately.
