Look, Ma, one hand! These 10" Powerbuilt® wrenches have spring-loaded, self-adjusting jaws made to bite, hold and turn virtually anything--round, flat, hex or oddly shaped--that will fit. The jaws open to 2-3/8" apart and remain parallel. Designed so the jaws will generate 4X the clamping power of the ANSI pliers standard. Unlike you, its jaws have hardened steel teeth. Good to have a few in the garage, workshop and camper.

Until this one. It's called the Ultimate Parent Backpack, but we make no judgments here, so we're selling it to anyone who appreciates what separates it from the kids' versions.

Call it the ultimate travel/diaper bag/backpack that you won't leave home without. In fashionable and water repelling, stain-concealing black. Measures only 12.5" wide x 16" tall x 9.5" deep

This 300 Lumen LED light is a mighty mite. Just under 4-1/2" long x 1" dia, you slide the sleeve and the beam zooms from a flood to a don't-stare-into-this focused spot.

Depress the button halfway when it's on and it goes into a rapid-flash mode for emergency signaling. Visible for 275 meters. Five hour life with the included 1-"AA" battery and a 110K+ hour bulb life.

The worst part of grilling? Having to cut into your meat to check doneness, or continually stab it with a thermometer. Those days are over with our super-useful “leave-in” thermometers from Char-Broil®. Measuring 2” long with 3/4” dia faces, these stainless steel temp monitors go into your meat before it goes on the grill and come out when the meat’s done. You’ll get (4) reusable thermometers with easy-to-read displays that indicate rare, medium and well (with corresponding temperatures). You’ll also get a nice little storage holster, and all of it will fit into your pocket while you’re walking to the grill with your platter of meat, utensils and cold beverage.

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 (not included), a momentary-on switch, pocket clip. (Sorry case not included).

Time was, the Scouts taught tots how to tie a few knots, but that was before John Sherry (knot-instructor par excellence and a member of the International Guild of Knot Tyers) came along with Knot It! a (126)-page hardcover book with illustrated instructions for tying (100) different knots. Our faves are the Schwabisch Hitch and the Slippery Night Loop. Includes a couple of 15” hanks of practice paracord and waterproof cards with (20) knot instructions. This could be your new hobby.
