I know you want to talk about tools and all, but I'd like to take this into the kitchen for a minute. My favorite gadget was a giveaway from the Welcome Wagon, over twenty years ago. It's about the size of a spatula, but it's made like a flat slotted spoon with an edge that catches on the egde of a pot. So, you can easily drain vegetables and pasta without having to worry about a colander. It's uncomplicated, and one of my favorite things in the kitchen.

Oh - if we are talkin house gadgets, I must say that I think Jess loves the Food Saver vacuum sealer thingy more than I do. One week right after I bought it, I came home and everything in the fridge was vac-u-sealed! I told the boyz (our two mini schnauzers) that they best hide or Daddy would have them zipped up tight!

I love the sealer thingy!!!! hereeeeeee kitty kitty :bolt:
Kitchen gadgets are a huge turn on for me and usually the simpler the better. I started using my Braun "wand" mixer for mixing glazes when I used to dabble with pottery and now have one that is devoted to stirring paint that lives on the tool shelf. Nothing beats one of those for mixing up a fresh vinaigrette. |

LMAO! That is awesome! I may have to put some beaters in the tool box.. or a drill in the kitchen drawer! |
Going to pick up a new gadget this weekend.. one of the laser measuring tapes, coz I am really sick of being off by > < much dammit! Any :dimbulb: suggestions for a good one?
Also.. a good, easy to use/ read "stud finder" suggestion would be awesome.. :hammer: We picked up a cheap one that really makes no sense in reading it.. I no likey :confused::mad: Thanks y'all! |
Does anyone else here have a Flip? I LOVE it. A video camera the size of a cell phone that takes high quality, lengthy videos.
Mine has a custom rainbow heart. Plugs right into USB downloads fast, and isn't bulky. LOVE LOVE LOVE. http://ts4.mm.bing.net/images/thumbn...fFlipVideo.jpg |
ok.. now THAT thing is awesome!!! :deepthoughts: stocking stuffer stocking stuffer.... mmm stockings...:thud:

So jealous. Those things are awesome. |
So part of today will be spent figuring out how to use a new gadget. A guy came to give us an estimate for re-doing our hardwood floors and had this handy-dandy lil tool. I have coveted it since I first saw it. Being the tactile vs visual person that I am, of course my "girl who fixes shit" :accountant: will have to help me read the damned instructions ( yes, I am one of those who can't insert tab A into slot B) I have other methods :hammer: or :chainsaw:
Wish me luck....LOL or maybe wish her luck in the efforts to teach :goat: a new trick! Here it is : http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_1...0070921x00003a |

I was sorely disppointed last weekend. I headed out to Sears to stroke some Craftsman stuff.. Sears is gone. Building empty, no forwarding address. What a bummer feeling that was. Looking on-line today, the store moved into a mall..yuck. Heading out , something will suit my fancy .. :duct: Have a good one.. Where'd that flip camera thingeee come from?:cool: |
I turned the heat down to 64 yesterday, and went and bought two Snuggies. They came with book lights--I dunno the brand--that unfold, flip up and then over when you press the button, like the wings on a Lamborghini, or maybe like a Transformer... lol, we were entranced by the cool technogadgetry of it! Dunno how long they'll work, but ohhhh the look on the boy's face... :heartbeat: :cheesy: :heartbeat:
|
So what do you think of the Snuggies????? I am really thinking of getting one for my cold-natured self.

I want a snuggie for Bob. Being a chihuahua in the winter is hard. He is hiding under my bed pillows right now. BRRRR!!!
I did get a kinda gadget type thing. I put a tv tuner in my computer, so I can watch tv in a little box, and still be on the puter. Very cool. HD too, and if I use it through Media Center, it gives an interactive guide. Thing also works as a dvr too. Cool little gadget. |

They're weird though, kinda like a hospital gown with choir-boy sleeves, and unless a person is tall, they're too long in the front--great for getting your feet warm, but not good at all for getting up and walking around. I'm considering pinning them up some. Quote:

Hey there SyrJess!! I have a Strait-Line laser tape. It works great, especially measuring curves. It is a moderately priced one. It has really made a difference in the amount of time it takes me to measure and put a bid together. 9 volt battery powered. I have tested accuracy and it has been right on, unless of course user error occured. :mohawk: You may have already tried this one.I am not a huge Ryobi fan but my carpenter friend turned me onto the stud finder they make and it works like a charm for me. 9 volt battery powered! I also check this one for accuracy every so often and it seems to hold its calibration well. Goodluck!! |
Bob has sweaters. Lots and lots of sweaters. He also has tons of tshirts, a running suit, and a Santa costume. But, no snuggie. How can I deprive him of a snuggie? That would be cruel. rofl
