Build A Motor
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
Complete kit with everything you need to build a small electric motor. Should you wish to power a boat with said motor, the plastic basics for the boat are included and the instructions will lead you through these steps. But the real fun and the education lie in building the motor itself. You get to buy the battery, of course. Ages 8 to adult.

The Penny Cutters
These are the so-called miracle shears from Pakistan. They were designed for use by paramedics and others needing quickly to cut wire, light sheet metal, or other tough stuff that might stand between them and their quarry. They are normally demonstrated cutting a penny in two. Which they will do. But not as a steady diet. Let's dispel a few myths. While these are Pakistani stainless, we're not talking any miracles in manufacturing. They are good for their purpose, and real handy to have in the old tool box. But their purpose isn't making pennies into 5-mil pieces, and you will twist or break them at about the same time you find out that you've done the same thing to U.S. laws! For sheet metal or wire or fishing leaders or tin cans or whatever, be our guests.

Intruder! Intruder!
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
Someone has entered your room! You're not in there to catch them, but the infrared light barrier you built has sounded the alarm! This Velleman MK120 mini kit includes all the components for both the 2" x 1-1/2" transmitter and 4" x 2" receiver (sizes approximate). The transmitter and receiver can be installed up to 12-1/2 ft apart. Breaking the infrared beam between them sets off an 85 dB alarm and lights an LED. Includes instructions, a schematic, 9-volt battery holders and adapter jacks (but not the solder, soldering gun, or the 2 batteries or adapters).

Hands-Free Measuring
What a clever gadget for youngsters and oldsters with hands too shaky to measure small amounts. It's one-piece, white-plastic, approx 5" dia, with (4) short arms radiating from a center circle that can hang from a small hook in your cabinet. At the ends of the arms are a 1-tablespoon, 1-teaspoon, 1/2-teaspoon and 1/4-teaspoon. The spoons sit flat and free both of your hands for pouring. The instructions say it "can be filled while sitting on the countertop," but we think you'll be more comfortable standing.

The British Are Coming
From our friends at the Naval Training Equipment Center come these 2-1/2” x 3-1/2” black-on-white flash cards of U.S. and foreign ships and planes. The 2-deck set has (55) cards for ships and (55) for planes and copters. (The cards are from 1983, so those that are no longer current, are now collectible!) Each aircraft card shows silhouettes from different perspectives, with the wing and fuselage markings as well as info on size, speed and range. Each ship card shows the silhouette and a diagram of the weapons placement, and lists the countries, class, length and displacement for that ship. Interesting. Informative. Very cool looking, whether you’re interested in arms or in art!

Piano Roll-up
CJ is the resident musician at A.S.&S., and he can play this roll-up keyboard to a fare-thee-well. "It sounds great," he says, "and it doesn't get any more portable than this." About nine steps beyond nifty, this extremely cool electronic keyboard unrolls to 25-1/4" long x 5-1/4" but the 1/8"-thick rubber-membrane keyboard rolls up around the sound module to become the exact size of healthy ham and cheese sandwich. It has (26) different tones, (99) rhythms, (10) demo songs, a (3) octave range and it runs on (3) "AAA" batteries (Not included.). The business end has volume, power, function, start and stop controls, a built-in 1-3/4" speaker, headphone output and jacks for a 6VDC 300mA adapter 3.5mm plug (not included). And if you let the cat play on it, we bet you'll get Phillip Glass tunes.

Acid-Free Black Paper
Also lignin-free, which means museum-quality backers for photo mounting, silhouettes, lightweight mats or other scrapbook applications. Our (25) sheets of 8-1/2 x 11", 24-lb black paper translates to $15 a ream, which translates to bargain city. From Wausau Papers® and no, we don't know what the "Astronights" name is about. But we think it might have something to do with preteen girls drawing stars and initials on these sheets with white or neon-pastel gel pens.
