Closed-End Zippers
Some few are closed on one end, like pants zippers, but most are closed at both ends, like the zippers on seat cushions. These richly colored plastic zippers in synthetic cloth, 21" x 1-1/4", might be sewn into pillows or into slinky, hip-hugging dresses. We have pink, black, maroon, navy, midnight, green, and ivory colored zippers-we'll give you two of our favorite colors in every pair you buy.

Rubber Stopper
Pat's been hanging around the medical supply house again. We now have a boatload of rubber stoppers, the kind you see on bottles of liquid medicine, crimped down with an aluminum collar. (Pat didn’t buy the aluminum collars.) The medicine is removed via a hypodermic needle through the stopper. The rubber stoppers come in blue or gray They are 3/4” across the top, 5/16” top to bottom, and fits a 1/2” (13 mm) dia opening. Why would you want them? Because they'll fit many of the small wide-mouth and slope-shouldered bottles in our Bottlemania listing. Pat's really good!

Copper Electrode
OK, it's a strip of copper 5-3/16" long x 3/4" wide x .041" thick, but CJ says if you "take this, a zinc electrode and a grapefruit to the science fair, you get at least a C." Equally useful for crafters and jewelry makers.

White Gloves
For running white glove tests. These are closer to a cream color, and are unused UK military surplus liner gloves for N-B-C suits, but they're nicely made, and would be quite useful as emergency opera-wear if you're in white tie but left your gloves in the Bentley. The men's Lg are labeled 8 to 8-1/2, and will be either 9-1/2" or 13" long (our choice) from fingertip to end of glove. These are also very nice painters/craft gloves for folks allergic to latex. Package of (3) pairs.

Beauteous Brass Sextant
Sextants came along after astrolabes but before GPS. (Just like you.) They're used for finding latitude and the distance between objects, and are still the non-electric, non-satellite-dependent back-up for navigators. Ours is a beauty in solid brass with glass optical components, at a tiny price. Measures approx 4-5/8" x 4-1/4" x 3-1/4" OA and comes in a very nice wooden case. Includes instructions for use, which you're going to need unless you went to Annapolis where they still teach it because computers can still go all kaflooey. (Note that well before computers started going kaflooey, compasses and sextants lost an adventurer here and there, too, so don't call us if you and the sextant set out for Madagascar and end up in Iceland.)

Sheet-Metal Worker Alert
Thin-sheet-metal workers, that is. As in crafter/jeweler/model-maker types. You get a 3-pack of very nice, bendable, metal foil sheets, 5" x 7" x .005" thick, (1) each in copper, brass and aluminum.

Porro Abbey Prisms
Porro Abbes are small glass prisms used extensively by Uncle Sam as image-erecting systems in small optical instruments of the World War II era. They look like two small right angle prisms cemented together, but are actually made from one piece of glass. Ours have entrance faces about 5/16" square, giving them an overall length of 11/16". In final use, porro abbes would have received two facefuls of silver or aluminum to enhance reflectivity from key surfaces, but ours are plain. . . and they do have small edge chips which your fussy Uncle found offensive, and which you will barely notice in your rapture over porro abbes. Enough history. The pure bubble-free optical glass renders these prisms optical jewels suitable for window sills, earrings, and general spectral fascination. No passport needed.

Bolshevik Buttons
Add the glitter of bright, brass-tone aluminum buttons, 9/16" dia, to tops, jeans, purses, backpacks. The buttons are new and convex, with a stationary 1/8" sewing loop on the back, and an embossed star and small hammer and sickle design on the front. All right, so they were from the Soviet military (circa late 1970s). The design is very discreet. And we weren't the ones who had to tear down a wall, so you can consider these the spoils of a cold war. (Lots and lots of spoils. Left-leaning artists who want to cover a giant canvas or Soviet statue with them should call for a volume discount.)

A Frame Of Swedish Steel
This forest green CORDURA® nylon backpack from the Swedes has been used, but has a lifetime of trekking left in it. Mounted on a steel frame, it measures 23" long x 13" wide x 6" deep overall with a rubberized flap, internal elastic pocket, drawstring closure and straps for adding a sleeping bag. And we lied a little about that "Swedish steel" thing, we don't know where the steel's from.
