Default Duh! Why didn't I do this years ago?

I super-glued a short length of plastic tubing to the toggle switch on
the shop vac.
Now, I can hit it on and off with the shopvac nozzle or anything else in
my hands.

The little red toggle switch was tucked down into a molded recess...
surely meant to protect it from stuff. Well, I'd rather be able to get
to it easily. Now I can. The tubing it strong enough to turn it on and
off, but weak enough to bend and not break the switch if it gets hit too
hard.

Stuff like this is such a "duh!" moment.
Anyone have any duh moments to share.
