I just happen to have this 32" torsion spring with a 2" i.d. left over
from an obvious home repair. I placed it in the garbage, at first,
but I retrieved it--in case it may be valuable! ; )

Seriously, is it material suitable for making any sort of wood cutter?
If it is, I think I can get a lot of 'em out of the spring!


Maybe you could make some sort of catapult and use it for disposing of
things the trash men won't take. Like dead cats :)

That's what the beefy plastic bags are made for ...

For disguising the cats or as freezer bags? What about the tail? ; )

Tie it to a back leg ...
