Rant: The 'mechanic' at the county fair in Springfield had his impact wrench hooked up to a garden hose.
I was walking by the food truck area and saw a guy trying to use an air tool with a water line, claiming it was a new 'hydro-power' system he invented.

Maybe he's onto something, water does put out fires.

That "hydro-power system" is just a disaster waiting to happen. The water pressure from a garden hose is nowhere near enough to run an impact wrench, and all he's doing is pumping water into the tool's air motor. It's going to rust solid in about five minutes.

Honestly, you're totally right. I saw that video and cringed thinking about the rust inside that tool. Like, even if it worked for a second, you'd be left with a paperweight full of corroded parts.
