This multi-use, all-purpose, tear-resistant, all-weather generally handy blue tarp is for covering up stuff. Measures 7 x 5 feet in .0085 thick plastic (polyethylene) with rust-proof aluminum grommets and a 1/16” poly rope inside the hem to give it extra stability. Also makes a nice lean-to or an ugly raincoat.

Or under it, or somewhere. These 1/4" thick cork rubber sheets are approx 22” x 16”, and they’re surplus from a gasket manufacturer. They make great vibration dampers, and can be cut to fit for furniture and floor protection. Also good to deaden sound in the storage of tools, and pots and pans. Various black streaks through the brown cork may militate against bulletin-board use, but then again maybe not since the bulletins will cover that anyway. And, yes, they're perfect if your hobby just happens to be gasket-making.

These here are made for repairing tents after critters tried to get inside or somebody bent over too fast with a machete in his belt. Iron these off-white canvas strips, shiny side down, over the hole and yer tent's like new, almost. Pants too, if ya got off-white canvas britches. Make good iron-on name tags, no matter how short or long your name is. Small are 2" x 2". Sold in large quantities, in case you have particularly aggressive critters, or an extra-long machete.

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 you're 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. 

Jarvis Says: Our Pkg (2) is one bag weighing Approx. 2 LBS.

These are all 21” square cotton/poly blend factory-second bandanas. A few are unhemmed on one side, but generally we can’t see why many of them were seconded. Most are traditional paisley designs in assorted colors, but others are novelty versions in USA and Texas flag looks, camo, smiley faces, dog paw prints, solid colors and others. It’ll be a nice change not to know exactly what you’re getting, won’t it? Buy ’em at the bulk price and resell them. Start your side hustle now!

Okay, they’re just strips of metal, but CJ says one of each and a grapefruit will get you at least a “C” at the science fair. The copper electrode is 100mm long x 18mm wide  x .8mm thick (3.94" x .7" x .041”). The zinc electrode is 4” long x 3/4” wide x .027” thick and stamped “ZN”. And both of them are awfully useful for crafters and jewelry makers, too.

That’s not an oxymoron—soft hunks—but a description of actual 8” x 5-3/8” x 3/16” thick slabs of black neoprene with self-adhesive backing. Mouse pads, case liners for electronics, furniture-saving pads for lamps and vases, mattresses for gerbil habitats, you decide.

But you’re free to use this piece of cork rubber composite, straight from the rubber/cork trees and in a darker cork look, for anything you like, including a very small, round bulletin board, dart board. Measures 10-7/8" dia x 3/16" thick. Nice mouse pad, too, or dart board for the really accurate player who doesn’t keep score. (For some, it’s about the journey, not the numbers.)

Hard to define this stuff, but it's mega-useful and made by the Bergquist Company ("A World Leader in Thermal Management Materials"). Used for thermal conduction, electrical isolation and shock absorption. Our each is a piece 16" x 8" x 5/32" thick, blue and textured on one side, bandage-colored and smooth on the other.

Cork--the Portuguese solution. We've got discs and rings to protect your furniture, absorb sound, deaden vibration, and inspire inventors, tinkerers, crafters, jewelry makers, and you!
