I rather liked the air bottle "hovercraft" idea. Ive seen folks use
3/8" plate and an airhose to move very large machinery like magic.


That's a neat idea. Do they just tap the air supply into the middle of
the plate, or what?

Yup. just put an air fitting on it and hook an airline to it with a
valve to control air flow. While it makes moving things easy..it
doesnt do anything for inertia...seen a couple spectacular booboos
when they got it moving too fast and then shut off the air a bit too
quick.

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling
which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight,
nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being
free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
