1. Swimming Jellyfish Aquarium
| From: American Science & Surplus
Features:- Harmless Jellyfish Fun Own your very own mini-aquarium/lamp with a trio of 2" long, diving, undulating jellyfish, but without that nagging problem of death by anaphylaxis when you feed them.
- (Because you don't feed translucent marine invertebrates made from rubber.) They're very lifelike jellyfellas, however, cavorting for your amusement in the 9-5/8" x 7-3/8" x 2-1/2" aquarium and lit by oscillating red, blue and green LEDs.
- Makes a fascinating bedside night-light. (No extra charge for fascinating underwater dreams.) The adapter plugs into a standard wall outlet, and it turns itself off after (4) hours if you don't

More Info | 5. GREAT QUALITY RED LASER POINTER WITH CASE AND BATTERIES.
| From: American Science & Surplus
Features:- Tootin' Our Laser We don't like to brag, but it's tough not to in a case like this. This is a wonderful pen-shaped laser pointer, 5-1/4" long, flat black or silver with gold pocket clip and head.
- It throws a red point a loong way (we've thrown it two city blocks at night, and it would've gone farther, but buildings got in the way)
- And what are we so proud of? We've seen a very similar item-not identical, mind you, but essentially the same-in one of those glossy, toys-for-grown-men catalogs.
- Their price? $40! We're proud not to be profit-mongers, buy it here and you can take pride in your smart shopping habits. Batteries included. (Please note color change to include silver.)

More Info | 6. Helping Hand Stand with Magnifier and Flex-Neck LED Light - Soldering, Electronics
| From: American Science & Surplus
Features:- Helping Hands... and Eyes We just wish there was something, anything, to do around here that required this thing, on account of it's so cool.
- Our newest Helping Hand has a pair of alligator clips on swiveling arms, likewise a 2-1/4" dia x 1. 5X magnifier plus an LED flashlight on a gooseneck.
- Everything swivels every way there is and tightens with little thumbscrews-and some of the configurations look like it's maybe alive, and from Venus.
- Jewelry makers? Diamond cutters? Forensic scientists? Maybe we'll start making small electronics, or tying flies.

More Info | 7. ROCK HAMMER
| From: American Science & Surplus

More Info | 8. PICK-UP MAGNET
| From: American Science & Surplus
Features:- A Lot Of Pull Pick up this 1-3/4" x 7/8" x 3/8" ceramic pick-up magnet while we still have it. It's in a heavy metal housing and has a stationary metal hoop, about 1/2" i.d on top.
- The manufacturer tells us the magnet will grab up to 30 lbs of metal, and while Pat wouldn't bet on anything over 20 lbs, it's still very strong.
- Especially if you're going to dangle it on the end of a cord to gather spilled nails or to fish your keys out of the lake/pond/sewer/drain!

More Info | 9. WIRE GLUE
| From: American Science & Surplus
Features:- Soldering Gun in a Jar Wire glue-the solution when you can't find the soldering iron, don't want to bother, are out in the woods, don't quite trust a fifth-grader with a hot gun, can't reach the connection with both hands, whatever. This stuff conducts low voltage AC and DC circuits in a permanent bond and is easy to use. Our high-tech support group suggests that a toothpick is a good way to apply it. Cures overnight. Our each is a 0.3 oz/9ml jar.

- 2X lens, a flip-down lens, and a flip-down loupe. Separate white LEDs at each temple, powered by (2) "AAA"s each which aren't included.
