Flex-Head LED

Bargain alert! It's small enough to fit in your shirt pocket, which is why it's got a pocket clip, and plenty bright. Our little LED flashlight runs on an included "AAA" battery and has a 4-5/8" long gooseneck attached to a 3-3/4" x 9/16" dia body so you can see inside crannies and nooklets. Remove the paper spacer on top of the battery before you curse us because it won't go on.

Avocado Bagmaker

No, no, no, no-not bags for avocados. We're not in California. This is the Bagmaker" Sealer, a blast from the avocado kitchens of the past and a perfect collectible for your retro kitchen. A competitor of those Seal-a-Snack-like, hot-wire plastic-bag-sealing devices that no 1970 kitchen could be without. Still handy, however, in kitchen, lab, craft-room or shop. Comes with a 50-foot roll of 12"-wide, 1.5 mil bag material, but we think the refills for similar products still on the market would fit in the reservoir. Probably. And if not, this will still seal up regular plastic bags. The unit measures 13-5/8" long x 4-1/2" deep x 2-3/4" high, sits on a counter or mounts on a wall, draws 35W at 120VAC and is UL listed. You know you've always regretted selling yours in that garage sale. Go for it.

Tentless Stakes

With cord. You'd think it would be easier to lose the tent stakes than the tent itself, but that's apparently what happened here. These are a set of (6) 10" long x 1/2" dia tubular aluminum stakes, cut at a 45° angle on the bottom and with holes drilled in the top. Includes (54) feet of 1/8" dia white nylon cord threaded through the stakes, but easily removable. Perfect if you're in the majority of folks who remember your tent when you leave the campground but don't remember the stakes.

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.

Electric Styro Knife

"Screeeeeek! Screeeeeek! Screeeeeek!" Recognize that? It's the sound of someone sawing a styro-foamal block. It's followed by the sound of a vacuum sucking up hundreds of little foam shards. Free yourself from both with this clever electric hot-knife that slides through those chunks of craft foam like a straight razor through a ripe mango. Perfect for carving foam blocks into shapes - or smaller blocks. Measures 10" long OA with a 4-3/4" long, needle-like cutting wand, heats up to 410°F (so be careful), and makes screeeek-free and shardless cuts. Has a 7-foot cord, line switch, safety stand, and wall-outlet adapter.

Clarabell's Horn

You get two tones (one squeezing, the other while the bulb inhales) from this retro bike horn, whose tone is much more a Clarabellian quack (see Howdy Doody if you're too young) than a deep Harpo Marxian (ditto) honk. Which is good on a bicycle. Measures 8" long with a 2-3/8" bell and a rubber bulb that will be either red, black, or purple. Includes a removable handlebar mount.
