Needle File Set

Miniature 5–1/2" steel needle files. They come in the usual assortment of flat, wedge, triangular, and round shapes, (10) in all. They seem to be pretty uniformly fine with none that we would call coarse. Made in China, they come in a vinyl carrying case that snaps shut. Not as classy as some of the sets we have seen in the $12.00 range, but perfectly serviceable for most applications. And at a third the price.

Sheets Of Pseudo Silver

Surplus - with a silver lining! We have almost half a hundred rolls of 18-1/2" wide mylar film, the shiny side printed with a variety of balloon designs - happy birthday, happy retirement, happy other things - and a matte silver finish on the other (picture the two sides of aluminum foil). We'll send you a roll of 20 ft. Lots of craft-project potential. Start with a shiny birthday kite. Move onto hand-made hair scrunchies. Jim suggests wrapping yourself in it if your car stalls in the Arctic. Philip, always the adventurer, is considering a do-it-yourself dirigible.

Lotsa Whiskers

All right, we don't have the brooms to go with these bristles. Nobody's perfect. The bristles are neat, though. Most are clear, black, brown, or mixed black and white, and range from 2-3/4" to 6" in length. The individual, (approx) 11 mil bristles are tightly wrapped in 2-1/4" to 3" dia bundles. That would be, like, a gazillion or so per bundle. We'll pick a size and color for you. If you're a taxidermist looking for animal whiskers, a hobbyist looking for unusual craft materials, or a broombuilder looking for bristles, you've come to the right place.
