Heat switch that is normally open below 135° F and closes at higher temperature. Imagination is the limit here. We don't have formal electrical ratings but believe it can handle about 2 Amps @ 120 VAC. It can be used (perhaps with a relay) to trigger a fire alarm when mounted near a furnace, in a garage, or in an attic. How about using it to shut off electronics or motors when overheating occurs? Or to activate a fan for cooling? Use it to record how long the furnace is on to rate its efficiency. 5/8" dia x 3/8" sensor head with (2) 1/4" x 1-5/8" long fixed leads.

We've had our eye on this macho needle kit. It includes (7) steel needles: (1) 1-3/4" for leather, (1) 1-3/4" for carpet, (1) 2-1/4" for sails, (2) 3" needles, one for packing and one for canvas, and (2) 2-1/8" dia curved needles, one for mattresses and one for lampshades. All right. So maybe you can use the lampshade needle to sew up softballs. May we suggest you stick these on one of our magnets, so you always know where they are?

Huge black soft rubbery suction cup, 4-3/4" dia with a handle molded onto the back. Made in Taiwan, the French and English labeling suggests it was destined for use as a dent puller or glass carrier. Which is fine if you have dents to pull and glass to carry. If not, use it as a non-invasive and or temporary hanging device in locales where such features are desirable, such as hotel rooms, boat hulls, windows, and the sides of fine antiques (Grandmothers excepted). It is really powerful!!

Looking for a very, very, very long refrigerator magnet? At 15 ft, this 7/16" wide x 1/16" thick magnetic strip should just about go up one side, across the top, and down the other side. It's flexible, but can be broken if bent back against itself -- which means that small children can make craft magnets without having to cut the strip or themselves! We love it when a plan comes together!

What a cool little clamp! Only 8" long overall, the jaws open to 4" when you press the release button and close incrementally as you pull the trigger. The 3/4" x 7/8" pads on the metal-and-plastic tool won't mar the surfaces they're sandwiching. Makes you want to find something to clamp!

Need a combination tweezers/magnifying lens? This one wins hands down! Elegantly simple. Easy to use. The short but wide grips on the stainless steel tweezers offer better control, but still come to a fine point. The 7/8" dia acrylic lens is only 3.5X, as opposed to the 6X claimed, but 3.5 works for most jewelers, hobbyists, scientists, and mothers of sliver-impaled children. Sweet.

Devices used to hold spring in place, thus ensuring eternally promis-ing, but changeable and wet weather. No? How about this then: Steel grips, spring loaded to keep their tips tightly closed on whatever you chose to target. The handles and tips have been coated with a light plastic to improve grip and provide a bit of insulation. The clamp is about 4" long x 5/8" wide and opens about 1-1/4". They have strong grips and will crush fragile items, but do a good job of holding things while the glue dries, you do the soldering, or the materials bond.
