lol, you could always start a thread in General Hardware to see if you could upgrade the hydraulics if not.

Project = Enhancing the arm.

"Hey guys i lost my arm, so the goverment and medical experts gave me a bionic arm, thing is its not strong enough lets change the hydraulic pressure, and put some plating on it, and then graft it to my body"

..or in the case of women, "Housewife Kitchen Utensil upgrade/attachments"
You can clearly get a self powered whisk on the end of that arm.

lol, yep, then make it hot-swappable with other devices, such as you wake up, open a drawer.. hmmmm..... can opener arm... nope, berreta arm... nope... ahhh, spin cycle tumble dryer arm!

Laundry day will never be the same again!

EDIT: and benchmarking would consist of total time to crush a MkII Ford Fiesta
