Plop the Cork

Plop this cork sheet into any of your projects. Quite flexible, 12" x 36", just 1/16" thick. That's pretty thin for a bulletin board, but just right for making yourself a cork wardrobe, or providing designer soundproofing in your Media Room. Use a sheet as a soft base for delicate model building, or craft a raft; cork floats, you know.

Do Not (Fill In The Blank)

We know there's a message in this 12" dia safety sign with the classic slashed circle. It's red and white on reflective, adhesive-backed vinyl, and the graphics mean "Do not put out fire with liquids." Given its limited application, we're more excited about cutting out the white sections and putting the red circle/slash over a photo of our least favorite politician. But hey, if you're on the safety committee, knock your socks off. Just make sure the sign isn't hung upside down. Then it says "Do not let fire rain into your coffee."

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!

Scope Your Stethos!!

Stethos is Greek for chest. Indeed you can scope your stethos with this stethoscope, or your friend's or your dog's. But it works equally well for picking up any sound being transmitted through a solid medium. Listen to the air flowing through the heating ducts, the water in the pipes, the sounds of machinery, the termites munching on the floor joists!! The color does vary so we will select from what's currently available. We've had blue, teal, red, black, burgandy, green and purple, but there may be other colors yet to be seen! A great discovery device whether for biology or other pursuits. Not of professional quality, but not just a toy.

Framed

You got us. We're stuck with a pile of 5" x 10" wood frames and you're the winner. Line a hallway with the kiddies' 5" x 7" school photos. They have 1/2" x 1/2" sides with rounded fronts. No glass, backing or hardware just makes it easier to update your favorites. We don't know who to blame for this mountain of frames, but you can help. Frame someone now.

Fire Lights

Very pretty. Very graceful. These clear-glass 2.2 volt, .25 amp bulbs are a wavy, flame shape 1-1/2" tall and 5/8" dia at the widest point. The base is candelabra size. They work fine on 3 volts (2"AA") at .32 amps. For a special look, hook (50) up in series and use them at 120 VAC. Order extras, because we don't think you'll find little pretties like these at your local hardware store.

Pow! Pow! Pow!

Warning!  WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.

It's 1953 all over again! Now you can buy your favorite childhood toy for your grandkids! We have the original Burp Gun that rapid-fires small ping-pong-type balls the length of our office as fast as we can pump the barrel (no batteries needed). All right, we remember the grip of the original as plain old brown plastic, and this one is bright red - but kids are used to a lot more stimulation these days! The Burp Gun, which comes with 15 balls, is 30" long when fully extended. The Burp Pistol, which comes with 7 balls, is 12" at its smallest and extends to 17". Great fun - but maybe you'd better buy a couple of bags of extra balls (10 per bag). Big sisters still stomp on them.

Cool Tool

Winner of this week's "What IS That?" award. It's a watch crab, also called a spanner wrench, that's designed to remove the back from watches, lenses from telescopes, and other thin, flat components from whatever they're attached to. Heavy for its size, it's 1" x 2-3/4" x 3/8" thick, with sharp 1/4" prongs projecting from the edge. The prongs move from 2" to 7/16" apart as you spin the furled nut between them. An impressive tool to flash in front of your brother-in-law. If he doesn't read our catalog, he won't have a clue!

Battery Tester

Knowledge is power - in this case, battery power. You'll know from the easy-to-read gauge on this black-plastic handheld mini-tester whether a battery is good, low or needs to be replaced. The 4-1/4" x 2-3/8" x 1" testor reads "AAA," "AA," "C," "D," 9 volt, 1.5 volt button, and other sizes.

A Lot Of Pull

Pick up this 1-3/4" x 7/8" x 3/8" ceramic pick-up magnet while we still have it. It's in a heavy metal housing and has a stationary metal hoop, about 1/2" i.d., on top. The manufacturer tells us the magnet will grab up to 30 lbs of metal, and while Pat wouldn't bet on anything over 20 lbs, it's still very strong. Especially if you're going to dangle it on the end of a cord to gather spilled nails or to fish your keys out of the lake/pond/sewer/drain!
