Wood You Believe...
A neat bag-o-wood, suitable for model-making, art projects and hobbies of all sorts. The balsa bag weighs almost 3/4 of a pound, and is a random assortment of balsa that may range from 1/8" square strips to a 5" long x 2" square hunk, and lots in between. The basswood may have half a dozen 5" long x 2" square pieces, 8" x 3" sheets, and a whole bunch of 1/16" to 1/8" strips. Whatever the variety of sizes, either bag will total approx 72 cubic inches in all, which is more than it sounds like.

Durkish Dowels
Durkish dowels! Two 8-packs of assorted 10" long wooden dowels, each pack with (2) each of 3/16", 1/4", 5/16" and 3/8" dia in unfinished pine. Why Durkish? Maybe we bought them from a guy named Durk. Or maybe it's a stupid towel joke.

Tongue Too Happy?
You'll need some tongue depressors. You couldn't beat these with a stick-these familiar little wooden slats, 6" long x 3/4" wide x 1/16" thick, ideal for model-making, gardening (Where'd we plant the radishes, Marge?), crafts and school projects. Use them as coffee stirrers that will actually stir something, dip them for pocket-sized paint samples, use 'em as campfire or fireplace starters. Our each is a pack of (50), individually paper-wrapped, which is not to say sterile.

DIY Bearing
Enough balls to make a beauty of a bearing! The 5/16" dia steel balls arrived in a case pack marked Grade 500. We don't know what it means, either, but we're very impressed with their potential! Bonus! Some may even have some light rusting.

Micro-Plywood
Small pieces of very thin plywood for your craft and model-making needs.

Foam Bumper
Born to live on an ignominious exercise device of some sort, this sturdy, black, open-cell foam cylinder is 5-1/2" long x 2-7/8" dia with a 1/2" ID bore through its center. We see it threaded on nylon rope for life as a pool-lane or lakefront-swimming-area divider, or as a tasteful boat bumper. (Yes, it floats.) But it has lots of bumper-type, uses, too, like slipping a couple behind a step-on garbage can to keep it from bumping into the kitchen wall. Just for starters. Think about the potential….

Egg McChameleon
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
Another gem plucked from the A.S.&S. mirabilia. The shape and size of a hen egg, this opaque stone (or matte-finished glass - we're not sure which) is interesting in itself. Touched with a red penlight in a dark room, the entire egg becomes a brilliant ruby color. Blue light/blue egg, etc. Fun and fascinating, and with a little sleight of hand, a sure way to convince the plebeians that you have some mysterious metaphysical power.
