Do you ever have flattened or bent-out-of-shape windshield wiper blades after storing your car for a long period of time? These are a thing of the past if you make a support for the blades.

A block of wood, about 1"x1"x1" with a slot cut halfway through will keep the rubber part of the blade from touching the windshield. The slot need only be the width of a table saw blade. The top of the block will bear on the wiper arm, the bottom on the glass with the rubber blade hanging free in the slot.
