SMTWTFS Boxes

All (7) days of the week are spelled out below giant, easy-to-read initials in these week-at-a-time pill boxes. Our each is a pair (two-weeks-at-a-time?) of translucent white-plastic pill sorters. They're 6" x 1-1/4" x 3/4" OA. They lock quite tightly, so the first few times you may have to practice hooking a thumbnail under the lids and pulling back and up to open them.

Need A Little Lap Time?

This little electronic marvel is for timing your speed and counting laps on "S" scale (1:64) race cars. Think Hot Wheels®. Think Pinewood Derby. Made for Radio Shack as ZipZaps Micro RC", it uses infrared LEDs and sensors to measure speed in ft/min or mph, and records individual lap times for up to 6 laps, calculates total time, and stores the fastest lap time and speed. The main unit shows speed and time on 1-1/8" x 5/8" LCD displays, and has a red indicator light to show that the sensors are aligned. (Sensors will work best in a room that isn't over-lit). Measures (1) car at a time, and takes a total of (2) "AA"s, and (2) "AAA"s.

Picasso's Pal

This clever little artist's brush holder/cleaner will keep those oil or watercolor brushes standing up (or down) straight with their little heads under water or paint thinner, clean and un-bent until you need them. A 4" dia x 2" deep aluminum cup is topped by a 6" tall U-shaped handle with a brush-holding spring across the top. Inside the cup is a mesh screen (with its own handle) for to clean the paint off and let it settle to the bottom, away from the bristles. The handle is removable for storage or travel.

Fun On The Fridge

Even as you read this, our office refrigerator is playing all by itself. Yours could, too, if you had this extremely cool set of automatic working-gear fridge magnets. Very instructive for budding engineers, just plain fun to watch, and, we assume, amusing for the ice box itself. You'll get (20) 3/8" thick plastic gears in assorted neon colors, all of which interlock in various patterns and turn all by themselves, driven by the 5" dia x 2" thick motorized gear/picture frame that runs on a couple of "AA"s that you provide. Gears include (7) at 4-5/8" dia and 3-1/2" dia and (6) at 2-1/2" dia. Buncha bright stickers included at no extra cost.

Pocket Kite

Because you never know when the wind's gonna pick up. This rainbow-colored, strut-less, dual-control stunt kite measures 44-7/8" x 19-11/16" when in flight, but folds up into its own 6" x 9" drawstring pouch. Includes a pair of round handles/reels and line. Flying it, we're assured, is a breeze.

Pen-Fan? Fan-Pen?

Or hot-flash deflector, or optical-illusion demonstration device. Or toy. Yes, to all of the above. Our 5-1/2" long brushed-aluminum, black-ink ballpoint pen has a (removable) little plastic fan blade in its noggin. Cool off at work, blow crumbs off the desk, or just turn it on and move the fan in and out from your computer screen and watch the phantom blades slow, stop or even reverse in the optical illusion called the "wagon wheel effect." Runs on a button-cell battery, included.

See Things Sideways

Through our little black-plastic right-angle viewer. It's a 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" hexagon, and Paul says that if you buy (2) you can see eye-to-eye with yourself, which is a little spooky. Great for a little light spying on the street, and if you find a way to stick it over the lens of a small digital camera, you'll get great candid shots.

Talking Bandages

These bandages don't talk out loud, but they do let your boo-boos make a statement. The lovely bacon bandages are photo reproductions of a (cooked) bacon slice. You get a box of (15) standard, 3" sterile bandages, with a bonus tiny plastic pig in every box. The crime version is a box of (25) standard 3" bandages in an authentic bright yellow "crime scene do not cross" style. Every box also includes a little plastic, Cracker-Jacky-type toy. Either way, you won't see these stuck on every other kid in school or at the office.

A big step up from the teensy sewing kits you get free in $400-a-night hotel rooms.
