Sorry if anyone has thought of these previously but I believe they are original.
1) To protect the underside of my vehicles from axle stands I used old radiator hoses. I cut them to length, split them and fitted then to the stand tops.
2) To bath/degrease smaller parts I made this. Select a tin can that fits the parts. I've used fuit, fish, dog food and coffee tins so far. Then select a can that fits into. Fit a wire handle to the top of the inner can and punch holes in it's base. Fill the outer can about 2/3 full and place in the smaller can. You can jiggle the can to help the cleaning process and the end result is easy to lift out with all the parts without degreasing your hand.
