Lo-Tech Clip Art

Before there was clip art, there were stencils. Will the art of stenciling survive the challenge of technology? It will if you help, my friend. These are sheets of thick paper with a number of complex and very cool stencils, including birds, fish, unicorns, flowers, dragons, a Happy Birthday logo, cars, and more. A total of (16) stencils (average size 2" x 3" ) come in an envelope, since it's just paper (albeit thick paper) and won't last forever, we'll send two sets.

Green Laser Par Excellence!

Da Mare could use this to point out cracks in the infrastructure at Wrigley Field. You, having a forgiving nature, will resist the urge to point out cracks in da mayor's infrastructure. You will, of course, use it to point out chimney cracks to the tuck-pointer, a cracked limb to the tree-trimmer, and the crack in your profit picture during a slide presentation. You can do all that and much, much more with the bright light from this 5mW green laser pointer. It's an unbelievable tool. If you need a laser pointer that seems to go on forever and is so strong that you can actually see the beam in the dark, it will be the best low-cost investment you ever made. Or the coolest high-end toy. The 532nm Class IIIa light is 5-5/8" long x 1/2" dia, with (2) "AAA" batteries (included), a momentary-on switch, pocket clip, and case. An absolute necessity for construction, surveying, warehousing, inspection and other large sites. And for playing in the dark.
