Baby Blue Bottles

Or maybe they're azure. These 2" high, 1-5/16" dia. 1 oz. bottles look a lot like 35mm film canisters, but they have red or green screw caps instead of the hard-to-pry-off caps that film canisters usually have. You can take the lids off these containers without sending map tacks flying across the room. Got a few screws loose? Load your own bulk film? You could use some of these.

Martian Popper Thing

Perennially popular in the stores, the Martian Popper Thing is virtually useless. It is a rather clown-like figure molded from the waist up. About 4-1/2" tall, it is made of air filled latex, sort of like a heavy balloon. Squeeze the orange body and the blue eyes and red ears and nose pop out in a very satisfying manner. Definitely approved as a method for expressing your mood when you desperately want to choke the @!&*! out of someone. Infinitely reusable. Which is a must for most of us!!!

Mobile Music

Mobile Music

Make your portable CD player really portable: take it for a ride with these skip stabilizers. The plastic housing is full of springs that should eliminate skips on all but the worst roads. Plus, each has an adapter that connects your car's cigarette lighter with your CD player. (To hear the music, though, you'll have to order-from us, naturally-a pair of speakers for the player's headphone jacks.) The DC-DC converter by itself would be a steal at this price. Use it for your CDs, or for any small DC appliance: tape deck or perhaps a portable espresso machine? Made by Koss; (2) different ones: 5-5/8" x 6-3/8" x 1-1/4", black. #27640's output is 9VDC at 500 mA; the output plug is 5mm. #27642 is 6VDC, 500mA, with a 3.5mm plug. All (3) take the standard 12VDC input.

Hemostatic Heaven

Hemostatic Heaven

Hemostats are the clamplike devices dangling from veins and arteries in melodramatic operating scenes. Our particular collection are Pakistani surgical-grade instruments made of magnetic stainless steel. As such we rate them pretty good, but not fantastic. Hemostats look like little pliers. The jaws are relatively fine, with rounded tips. The inside faces are lightly serrated to get a grip on tubing or body plumbing. And the handles are much longer than the jaws. Ratchets between the handles click together to lock the hemostat in a closed position. To release the clamps, push the handles apart at 90 degrees to the plane of the jaws. Now the heavenly part. Great hobby clamps that can be worked into small areas. Fine heat sinks for electronics. Good hook extractors for trout fisherpeople. Excellent tubing clamps for flow-sensitive chemistry experiments. Sizes are approximate length.

Positioner/Holder

A fine concept and pretty successful execution. Weighted bases hold fully adjustable clips and lenses for delicate hands–free work. The Helping Hand w/solder has a 2” high base connected to (2) alligator clips via (3) universal joints and a 4–1/2" sliding beam, and to a 2–1/2" dia roughly 3X magnifier via another universal joint on the sliding beam. It also adds a holder for your soldering iron, plus a hole and thumbscrew in the base to firmly position it. The larger Work Stand has a 3–1/2” x 4–3/4” stand with a 2–3/4” square x 3/8” deep reservoir to hold small parts, an L–shaped sliding beam with (2) alligator clips, and another L-shaped beam with a 3–1/2” lens, about 4X magnification. Joints adjust every which way. The set screws can all be hand–tightened, but we suggest a small pliers to secure the hefty 4X lens. Think of the clips as extra hands to hold wires, components, beads, what-have-you while you perform some operation on them with your own two hands.

Yellow Strapping

Yellow Strapping

Only a mother could love some inventions. And Pat. Pat loves this one because the (2) 64" x 3/4" yellow woven-nylon straps, each with an additional 4" of elastic at one end and an old-fashioned garter buckle at each end, are great for all the usual strapping applications, plus a few more. They were designed to keep sheets from shifting. The hilarious 6-step instructions start with "Attach the head end of the bottom sheet to the foot end of the top sheet...." For a mere $1.75 you can read the rest!

Chinese Rifflers

Riffler files are most prized by sculptors, wood carvers, model makers and similar fashioners of precision objects. They come in a variety of flat, round and triangular shapes. They are usually pointed and always have a delicate curve toward the point which makes them particularly useful for working in tight and curvy spots. We have a set of (10) in an attractive red plastic case. They are 3 x 180 mm size (about 7"), and were made in China for the King Manufacturing Co. Very nice quality at a very nice price. They can cost as much as $4.00-$5.00 apiece in regular outlets.
