The world does not live by screw caps alone. These thick amber glass vials are 3-5/8" tall x 1-7/16" dia with a lip and 1-1/8" ID mouths. They’ll take a #16 cork, which we’ve included to save you time because we’re thoughtful that way. Made in the USA. Holds about 1.35 oz. with the cork, and about 2 oz. without. (That's about 40ml and 60ml, respectively, if you're into the metric system.) 

You could run three craps games with this set of (6) giant unfinished-pine dice, or just play Ten Grand (aka Dix Mille or Zilchers). Dice measure 3-1/2” cubed, with rounded corners and painted dots, and come in a cloth drawstring bag. Also handy for teaching classes of budding croupiers because at this size even the kids in the back row can see what a hard ten looks like.

Leather scraps, very assorted. Each 2-lb sack will net you some small pieces and a few larger pieces, from 4" x 12" down to 6" x 2", more or less and give or take, in odd shapes. (If your lucky maybe even one long piece) Think coin purses and bracelets, not belts. Maybe a jacket for a hipster rabbit. Colors are all over the place, from light and dark browns to reds, whites, maroons and more. You get approx (2) pounds total. Have fun and send us pictures of what you made. Call for larger bulkier pricing. 

Not so little, actually, this lantern. In matte-finish white plastic, it stands 13” tall x 7” across and has a flickering-flame 25-lumen LED for you fans of verisimilitude. Kind of Paul Revere-looking, if you ask us. Has a slide switch and folding hanger, but will also stand on its base. Weather-resistant and the (3) “AAA” batteries are included.

Poker gets art-directed. Our each is a stack of (100) stackable poker chips, none of them red, green or yellow. You’ll get (25) each in maroon and midnight blue, plus (50) in a nice pale gray. Makes you want to dress a little better on game night.

Sometimes you don’t want lead in your solder. You know this. Our each is a dispenser that feeds approx 109” of lead-free solder in 0.40” dia wire. Solder is 99.3” tin and 0.7% copper. No need to thank us for refraining from lead soldier puns.

The Alligetter is a pick-up tool that works much better than "You come here often?" Sorry--joke. This pick-up tool is for getting stuff that's stuck in the garbage disposal, an alternative to having your fingers disposalated. Translucent white plastic with a gatorish head and 2-1/2" long serrated jaws, a white LED for lighting up the drain, and a clever little device to spread those rubber drain flaps, it folds for storage. Personally, we think it's way too alluring to stick down a drain, and its real future is with imaginative children and invented games. Consider buying some marbles or playing cards. Or mini dinosaurs… Please note, the included (4) AG-3 batteries are getting old, may be corroded and in need of replacing. Check out our battery assortment Button Cell Batteries for low cost replacements. That's just the way surplus works sometimes.

This clear, 6-3/4" X 1-1/8" acrylic tube has aluminum tape at the ends and an oscillator with red, green and blue LEDs inside.

Powered by non-replaceable coin cell batteries in parallel, but they should last until long after you've lost the device.

Slide the thin side under the short leg until the wobbling stops. In ribbed rubber that’s soft enough to stay wedged where you put them. Restaurateur alert: these will replace all the folded paper your waitstaff keeps shoving under table legs.

With leather (probably, we think) reinforcements on the 14-1/2” long handles and a cream body with a moss green bottom, like the ’56 Chevy Bel Air our uncle once owned. In cotton canvas, 11-3/4" tall x 11-1/2" x 5" with an internal 9-1/2” x 6-1/2” flap pocket for a wallet or phone. Juanita loves hers.

Semi-Tetris-ish, with (40) pieces that will take them a week to fit back into the 10-1/2” x 7” frame, and can also be used to make a bunch of different things.

We’ve never had a bottle quite this one, in spring-like translucent-green coated glass. Plus it’s a dropper bottle, and the rubber bulb matches the pretty green color.

Powered by a pair of button-cell batteries, included. Our each is (6) lights.

It snows on this moon. Our spectacular lunar snow globe is 3-3/4” dia in glass on a black wooden base, and has beaucoup sparkles all sparkling around a silverish moon that’s roughly 2” dia, although we couldn’t actually measure it on account of it’s inside a glass globe. How do you know it's glass? Just ask Mike one of our copy writers. He dropped his that he bought for himself. Yup, glass alright. Nice going Mike.
