Quick Mando Jet Pack Idea (not exact)

[thor7775]

A relative had this old Intex pool cleaner at their garage sale this summer...
It didn't sell, so they gave it to me... I couldn't help but notice a resemblance to something familiar...

So I gutted it (easy), washed it & painted it kind of quickly -

.....with a few extra alterations/mods, I think it would make a very cool, Mando Jet Pack!

Here's what it originally was:

Auto Pool Vacuum

A leading brand in Above Ground Swimming Pools, Air Mattresses and PVC inflatable products. With over 50-year of history, we work hard to maintain the highest standards for safety, quality and value.

intexcorp.com

You can find used ones on the web (didn't really price any, but new they're like $114)

The whole thing measures: 18" (h) x 13" (w) x 8" (d) & I sprayed it with Krylon Fusion Silver & Gloss Black Paints
Too many other projects going on to finish right now - so I'll probably get to it next spring....
Hope this gives 'a new hope' to other costumers...

Regards, THOR

You could be left white and be a Stormtrooper jetpack also. I think that looks awesome.
