Sometimes the way to do something doesn’t have to be the toughest way. Slipping overboots on over your work boots seems less like “slipping” and more like “jamming” and “forcing” some times.
Luckily, the folks at Lowe’s have shared a video, as part of the Lowe’s for Pros “Pro Tip” series, showing how a plastic bag can make putting those overboots on so much easier. Simply take a plastic grocery bag, which, unless you live in California, you probably have thousands laying around then house, tie it over your boot, and Bam! The overboot slips on with no problem.

While still new in the construction industries, robots are typically designed to perform a specific task in a highly precise and efficient way, like the rebar tying robot, Tybot or the brick-laying robot Hadrian X. More recently, though, robots are being imagined as platforms for 3rd party companies to develop hardware and accessories to attach to the base robot, like the Boston Dynamics robotic dog, Spot. I recently came across a new robot, called Baubot, which hopes to one day perform tasks using every tool on a typical jobsite.
