Un-Bunsen Burner
So you don't have a gas jet in the garage? You don't think Margie and Ted are old enough to handle the high temperatures of a Bunsen burner? Our alcohol lamps are the answer. They burn alcohol (available at the hardware store), and are hot enough to boil water, to soften glass tubing for bending, and to generate the chemical reactions generally called for in science projects. The lamp is 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" glass bowl with a wick assembly that brings the whole to a height of 4-1/2" and comes with a handy little metal lid/extinguisher.

Short-Order Science Projects
Are we the Parents' Pal or what? No household with normal school-age children (ages 9-12) can afford to be without Sterling Publishing's 112pp hardcover book, "Last-Minute Science Fair Projects." Ten of them take "a week or two," (13) take "a few short days," but fully (22) projects can be completed in under (24) hours, a few in mere minutes. And yes, most everything you need is somewhere in the house so you won't need to find an all-night hardware store. Bonus: No baking-soda volcanoes!

Fun With Iron Filings
Messy fun, you’ll agree, if you've ever seen kids playing with magnets and iron filings, or sharing them in a science class. Our each is 3/8 oz, which is approx 146 gazillion filings, and pure hell to clean up unless you have one of our handy-dandy aforementioned magnets!

B-17 & B-24 Motors
These small, new motors for oil-heater louvered doors were made for, but never installed in, WWII-era B-17s and B-24s. High torque, low rpm, these collectible 24VDC 1.5A motors measure 5-1/8" long x 3-1/2" dia on the shaft side and 2-3/8" dia on the other end, in a blunted bullet shape. The 15-tooth output shaft is 3/4" long x 1/2" dia, centered on the large end with a trim screw offset for some speed control, and a 4-pin Amphenol connector. Rated at 24VDC but will operate between 12-26VDC. These are of particular interest to us because the sample, at least, was manufactured right down the road from us in Rockford, Illinois, by the Barber-Colman Company!
