Bell Beasts
Cast resin wall plaques to put around the button for your door bell or the viewer in the door. (We suppose they could surround the drawing room button for the butler, but they seem a bit casual for that.) The 4" tall x 2-1/2" wide frog, crouches in reeds and presents the button in his mouth. He looks as though he tarnished bronze. Welcome the wild with this wonderful amphibian.

A Painful Choice
A thumbscrew, if you have an enemy with fat thumbs -- a thumbscrew-style hose clamp, if not. Metal, adjustable between 3/4" and 1-1/2". We suggest that this would be a good time to fix that leaky hose, before your wife starts eyeing your diphalangal digits.

Knobbies
1-7/8" dia. green, brown or orange hard plastic balls with a 1-1/4" ID x 1-1/2" deep hole on one side. Use them as slippery chair feet, as knobs on the ends of levers or tops of canes or even as protective caps for sharp pole ends. The tapered inner veins will provide a tight friction fit. You get an assortment of colors.

Stop It!
Top or bottom. You pick. Our little yellow-plastic drain stopper fits a 1-1/16" opening. Flip off the attached cap and it's a strainer. Our littler yellow-plastic top, made to fit a 1/2" opening and reduce it to 3/16", to maybe convert a pour spout to a squeeze nozzle, has an attached stopper.

Thermometer Mounts
The world of surplus works in mysterious ways. Here we have assorted V-shaped aluminum channels 5-3/4" long x 5/8" wide across the 120° Vs. Picture these nestled behind glass thermometer tubes, imprinted with assorted scales, each with a small mounting hole at the top, maybe tiny crimp-clips to mount the thermometer that isn't there, and a diamond-shaped opening at the bottom for the glass bulb that also isn't there. Then add your own thermometers, use them as teaching aids, string 'em together for tracks or marble runs, or get really creative.
