Muscle Suit for Carpenters Unveiled In Japan

Geniuses at Nagayo University in Japan unveiled a prototype ROBOTIC MUSCLE SUIT designed to help carpenters fit ceiling boards in place. This particular carpentry task is unnatural to the human body and takes a lot of brute force. It requires that the board be pressed against the ceiling with one hand while screwed in place with the other. The robot suit takes on most of the load, so the carpenter doesn't have to. Hey, sitting around at a computer all day is also an unnatural act. Where's MY robot suit?
