Helping Hands... and Eyes

We just wish there was something, anything, to do around here that required this thing, on account of it's so cool. Our newest Helping Hand has a pair of alligator clips on swiveling arms, likewise a 2-1/4" dia x 1.5X magnifier plus an LED flashlight on a gooseneck. Everything swivels every way there is and tightens with little thumbscrews-and some of the configurations look like it's maybe alive, and from Venus. Jewelry makers? Diamond cutters? Forensic scientists? Maybe we'll start making small electronics, or tying flies.

Fabricate A Fountain

Create your own fontana, just like Bernini. Yours might be a tad smaller, but it's the effort that counts. You'll get a kit that includes a 3" tall 6 VDC submersible pump, a power cord with wall adapter and in-line switch, a 2-part resin rock-like pump cover (approx 5" dia x 4-1/8" tall), and a gasketed bushing for the power cord. Pump has a flow control, and includes instructions. You add a vessel, and maybe carve a nice marble statue of Poseidon.

Big Beanless Bags

Absolutely nothing says sophisticated like the timeless, classic, vinyl beanbag chair. And now you can combine interior design savvy with an homage to the sporting life. You pick from our giant baseball, white with authentic red faux-stitching or the huge hockey puck featuring crossed sticks and the legend: "The Original Extreme Sport." Both are 32" dia and both will need to be filled. We recommend styro peanuts, but if you want to go with actual beans, knock yourself out. You'll also need a little tape or hook-and-loop strips to seal the opening. Note that the baseball and puck chairs are cheaper than real baseballs and pucks.

Need A Hand With That?

You've come to the right place. Our illuminated, magnifying helping hand even has a stand to hold a soldering iron. On a 2-1/4" x 2-1/2" cast iron base with a small-parts well, it has a sliding arm on a ball-joint with (2) alligator clips that move on (2) axes. On a second rotating ball-joint arm is a generous 3-14" dia 2X magnifier with a 6X inset lens and a pair of white LEDS. More like (3) helping hands than (1).

Up to one month continuous motion on a single "D" battery. Runs 4 rpm clockwise, but can be reversed. The motor is attached directly to a "D" battery holder and the whole shebang stands 4-3/4" tall x 1-3/4" dia. The 3/4" x 1/8" dia flattened shaft has a 1/16" bore 1/8" from the end. Comes with mounting holes on stand-offs at the top of the motor, and a plastic 1-1/2" dia turntable that mates with the shaft.

World's Smallest Terrariums

Terraria? You decide. Then you pick a 2-1/2" tall plastic egg-shaped terrarium filled with "sprouting mixture" and the seeds for either a eucalyptus plant, a bright-blue lobelia (the favorite of faeries!), an asparagus fern, or an insect-eating hooded pitcher plant. Each sprouts in a week or two on a southern or eastern-facing windowsill and then can be moved into a larger terrarium, we're assured.
