Put away your tinfoil hat!

Be protected from extraterrestrial nukes and beams in comfort!

Rumoured to be effective against Death Rays!

The top half looks like a coffin tipped on it's side.

Cool, though, in it's own way.

STEVE!!! STEVE L.!!! I think you need to weigh in on this! Do you have your Electrolux ready to go for a trial?

The Electrolux is POWERLESS against this baby!

It's doomed!

That picture reminds me of the topic we had going on trailers for bicycles:
How small is small? How about a bicycle/motorhome hybrid?

Hmm, this one might be just what I need because it looks like it would fit into my 7'0" garage much better than my Scamp does! Aside from the obvious protection (Scamps have Reflectix, so they have some protection, but this one, with a trailing grounding strap, would be excellent protection -- Perhaps some sheet aluminum wound on a salvaged RV awning roller would provide some additional protection for sitting outside

In the 70s my wife worked with a guy who aluminum-foiled his car. That was taking decoupage a bit too far.

Unhappy

Scamps are covered inside with aluminum-foil under the rat-fur So we must be safe!
Another reason to like our Scamp!
the DesertHawk aluminum-foiled

Hey, Adrian...

Tinfoil is BAD! THEY are watching ALL of you who use tinfoil!

Here's how: Effectiveness of Tinfoil Hats... an Emperical Study done by MIT.

This is THE definitive work on tinfoil hats and tinfoil linings... and describes in detail how you're likely giving yourself away!

I know you think you're being safe... but you'll thank me after reading this... after all... if they really ARE after you, you're not being paranoid... are you?

Who do you think funded this study? Who owns the equipment that was used? You are being duped! I, for one, will continue wearing mine 24/7.

Will this protect me??? I just had to buy it--- (and the best part is I duped the wench into paying for it.. ) Or maybe wrap it in plastic wrap and sneak it into a fiberglass ralley... Or do I have to go park it next to the house in our town that the fellow wrap in foil to ward off the rays? (one of my friends suggested what to do with it... seems that fire was involved..... ) Larry

... one guy built it, but there's 5 folks bidding on it... and for a while, bidder 5 was bidding against himself... makes you wonder.

The truth is out there.

I KNEW there was a reason I want to keep my "sticky tin" trailer even though I have found a fiberglass one! When I go home to visit (a town near Roswell, NM) I probably should take the sticky tin trailer, huh?

Exclamation

Roger,
Thanks for the web site on aluminum foil head wear.

None of styles shown, I would care to wear, perhaps a design contest for One with more Aesthetic Appeal is called for.

That's it, Designs are needed for a Cool Tin-Foil hat to ward off, whatever needs to be warded off

I'll just hide in the Scamp when they come looking for me.

the DesertHawk still aluminum-foiled when in the Scamp

Yup- --left over from when my hunting buddy let me work on his trailer---- I've been muttering for 20 years that if I ever got into my shop, it was gone. Now it sits on my shop front doorstep. Been there on a public street for over 3 years--- still empty... So ugly no-one will steal it. Guess I will have to take it home and make a mailbox out of it. Larry

True, but I think the title of the pic was "What to do to Your Boss When He/She is on Vacation"
