Abstract: A paddle wheel propulsion device kit is shown which can be removably affixed to a canoe and the like watercraft. A steering unit having a tiller and a rudder shaft detachable from an elbow with a safety cable can be removably attached to the watercraft. A folding and removable paddle wheel fender prevents water entering the watercraft while moving under power. The propulsion power includes a chain drive from a bicycle type mechanism with soft pedals and removably anchored inside the watercraft.

Abstract: A closed system paint or varnish stripping apparatus in which the surface finish of furniture and the like can be removed with very little operator contact or maintenance. The system recycles the stripping chemical with only a minimum of filtering being required. Nozzles having an unique design in which the diameter of the orifice is greater than one-half the inside diameter of the supply pipe facilitate spraying the recycled chemical with very little possibility of the nozzles plugging. Moreover, the use of these large orificed nozzles allows the chemical to be sprayed at a high flow rate providing for the drenching of a work piece in several seconds and eliminating much of the mist production and evaporation losses previously associated with paint and varnish stripping operations. In addition, this high flow rate is achieved with only low pressure loss so that low pressure pumps with small motors can be used.
