Sky Blue Labels

They're plain and white and self-adhesive, fine for all your labeling needs, but with a twist: a little sunlight turns them a lovely marbleized sky blue. And the blue stays when the sun goes away! Note sizes below. #27863 has holes on the edge of the backing, to put it through a printer's tractor feed.

Good Grips

Mountain bicycle handle grips, all new, slightly soft black rubber. All apparently first quality. Great for replacements. Not a biker? Try them as bump protectors on mops and brooms and oars. Or for improving grip on fishing and butterfly nets, ski poles, and miscellaneous handles around the factory!! "Rib" means circumferential ribs,. "Smo" means smooth. The "Shift" grips are meant to go over the gear shift ring and have internal ribbing for half their length to grip the shift ring which reduces the stated ID by 1/8". "Knob" means it has knobby circumferential ribs alternating with smooth spaces. "Open" (or "Op") means both ends are open and "Closed" means one end is closed. All except the "Shift"'s are slightly tapered inside for a tight friction fit. We give the maximum ID in the table.

How Does It Work?

Why does it do that? Develop an elemental understanding of magnetism, electromagnetism, electrochemistry, radio, thermodynamics, light and optics. Simon Quellen Field's 228-page paperback, Gonzo Gizmos, Projects & Devices to Channel your Inner Geek explains processes, equipment and scientific terms -- and then, for starters, tells you things like how to make a rotary steam engine in 15 minutes from a soda can, a candle and a few scraps of rubber tubing. It's the favorite of our resident geeks -- but not for kids unless they're working with an adult. That would be a mature adult. An insured, mature adult.
