The quest continues…
When on vacation I came across this garden hose that was expandable. When you put water pressure through it, it expanded to about twice the length. When done with it, it contracted and could easily be put away.
Yes, I understand that you want to make jokes and innuendos of a NSFW character, but please wait!
The hose has an outer fabric layer that stretches a bit and I got the crazy idea that this could be the perfect Ejection handle material!
When searching the interwebs I found that Hozelock has a yellow hose, which I immediately ordered.
I stripped it of the yellow fabric envelope layer and laid it flat on one side and painted it black. The fabric is shaped like an envelope and appears flat, when you remove the tube inside it.
I then threaded it onto a regular 18x14mm clear PVC hose.
I then twisted the fabric envelope and heated it in the oven on 180°C to tighten it a little.
Now that looks rather cool…
I’m thinking of making over head handles, like in the F-4 and F-14.
