Bad, Bad Buckle
Ahhh, the essence of surplus. This 1-7/8" wide woven black luggage strap with a plastic buckle on it, turns out to have a defective plastic buckle on it! It's still a sturdy 65" strap, and can be adjusted to a 32" loop, but we want to be up front about it and warn you not to use the buckle. It breaks too easily. On the other hand, it's priced accordingly! Is this a deal, or what?!?

Rubber-Coated Horseshoes
Rubber-coated horseshoes so your horse doesn't make so much noise in the house? No, no, just a little 3-1/2" long x 1-7/8" horseshoe magnet with a red rubber coating on the top half. Has a 1/4-lb pull, so it's great for classroom iron-filing demos or light work. Ignore the "Large, Heavy Duty" label.

Hey, Jute
You get almost 600 feet of jute twine in (2) 295-foot spools. It's brown (because it's jute) and approx 3/32" dia. For tying stuff up in general, but particularly good for gardeners because jute is all natural and degrades well, so instead of calling it brown, one might say it was green!

DIY Dry-Erase
Turn any flat surface, from old blackboards to ordinary walls, into a dry-erase board with 3M's® white dry-erase sheet material. Just press the 3"-wide self-adhesive sections at the top and bottom to any smooth surface to create a conference room anywhere. From meeting room to playroom, it's easily removable, reusable, and safe for painted surfaces. And the price of this trimmed-to-length sheet, 24" wide x 10-feet long x .003" thick, is a real bargain when compared to the retail price. Our PKG(10) is one 24" x 10' long piece.

Can't beat a classic. These uncoated ceramic donut magnets have a 1-lb pull, which makes them dandy for classroom or refrigerator use. They measure 1-1/4" dia x 3/8" ID x 3/16" thick and are polarized on the faces. You get a wrapped roll of 29 donuts.

Leftovers
What’s left of a Kansas City cow after all the steaks are gone? Lots of leather! (Think buckskin, not biker jacket.) You choose from: 1) The one-piece Lace Leather Belly. Really more of a long half-belly, this solid piece of leather is between 2-1/2 and 3-1/2 sq feet. Ours was black, approx 10-1/2” wide x 53” long x 1/8” thick. 2) A pack of Leather Strips. Ours was a very assorted 2 lbs of strips and larger pieces of leather, 1/16” to 1/8” thick, in rust and brown. 3) The Farmer Bundle Repair Bag, 2 lbs of scraps in various colors. Ours contained a solid 12” x 8” black piece and a very large bundle of brown leather thongs 47” long x approx 1/8” square. Lots of variety, and lots of heavy leather for the price.

FIREBOX WINDOWS
An unusual find. This piece of Robax® brand heat-resistant transparent ceramic fireplace glass from the Schott Co. is rated for up to 1400°F. It’s like the window in your oven door, but we think it was meant for a fireplace or wood-burning stove. You choose a 12-1/2" x 9"x 3/16” thick piece with an arched top, or a plain rectangle, 15" x 8-3/4" x 3/16” thick. The edges are ground and the glass has a very slight grayish-pink cast. Made in the USA.

RARE FIND!
Rare earth magnets are usually killers for their size, and these thick nickel neodymium discs are no exception. The price, on the other hand, for (3) 7/16" dia x 1/4" 5-lb lift or (2) 9/16” dia x 3/16” 8-lb lift magnets each stored on a 2" dia steel disc, is a rare exception.

Drawer Liners
Line your drawers (and stop that snickering or we'll turn this catalog around and go right back home) with this lightweight, closed-cell black foam. Made for lining your big toolbox, these sheets are 1/16" thick, and can be cut to any size. They preserve the floor of a drawer, cut the clatter, and cushion fragile stuff, like glassware, on shelves. You get a 5-pack of small sheets (21-3/4" x 10-1/2") or a 4-pack of large sheets (21-3/4" x 15-1/2").

AIRCRAFT CABLE
Stop picturing a fat cable you can use to tie down an airplane. This is great 20–strand twisted cable from the aircraft industry, but at 1/16” dia, it’s sized more for a Chicago Cub than a Piper Cub. The cable is high–quality stainless steel, unjacketed and very strong. Use it to hang extremely heavy mirrors, make repairs, create bendable metal sculptures! Order in 15–foot or 100–foot hanks. Enjoy!
