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!

Alien

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

This sinister device seems at first glance to be an innocent ping-pong ball. Touch both of the metal strips on the weighted bottom, however, and a circuit closes, making the ball flash red and moan eerie electronic sounds. Can be used to illustrate the idea of an electric circuit to children-show how electricity can flow through a chain of people holding hands, or that a little dampness can improve conductivity, et cetera. Powered with two watch batteries (included) so there is no danger of shock.

Watch Tools

So why do you want this 7-piece watch battery replacement kit? Because it's economical and will pay for itself in short order? Because you're so self-sufficient you would have removed your own appendix if only the E-R physician hadn't been so territorial? Maybe just because you want to poke around inside a clockwork? Whatever the reason, you'll like the jeweler's Phillips screwdriver and knife, the spanner wrench, prying tool, dust brush and soft-plastic and needlepoint metal tweezers. They're in separate pockets in a plastic carrying case that can be rolled for storage or hung by its grommets. We know you'll like this kit, 'cuz we know what makes our customers tick.

Stump Blender

Used for blending stumps into the landscape, or in fact any other pencil or charcoal mark on a drawing. It is a 1/2" dia x 6-1/2" long soft paper rod sharpened to a point on each end. It can be re-sharpened in a pencil sharpener. If you don't understand, you are not an artist and don't need one. But get one anyway and stump your friends in the next "Guess what I got!" contest.

Artist's Brushes

Maybe a little eclectic for an artist with a single style, but perfect for one who's still searching for himself. Or for any hobbyist. There are no (2) brushes exactly alike in this set of (15). They all have natural bristles, color-coded wooden handles and metal ferrules, but they range from fairly fine to 1/2" wide, and 7" to 10" long. There are at least (3) different kinds of bristles, and they are round, blunt and pointed. A nice variety, and a very nice quality for this price.

Paint By No Numbers

Paint By No Numbers

We have 1/8" plywood cut into shapes up to 8-3/4" tall that were supposed to sell as picture frames. Well, of course they didn't sell. Each is a crafty design with suggested details (and with an almost-die-cut center punch-out) better suited to be a Christmas ornament, Easter decoration, etc. So far we've seen a teddy bear, duck, bunny rabbit, cat, unicorn and Christmas tree. You bring a little sandpaper, paint and imagination, plus a few simple tools, and you'll dazzle everyone with your talent. You'll get at least (2) different designs in your pack of (3).

Popcorn Rock…

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

That’s right, a rock that grows crystals that look sort of like popcorn! Just immerse it in vinegar and wait 1 to 3 weeks (instructions included). It looks like a roughly 2" lump of coal before crystal growth, in case you were wondering. Truly amazing!
