Rock N Roller MultiCart R2 Micro

What is most useful and unique about this adaptable rolling cart is that it folds to a relatively compact size that anyone can easily fit into a normal car while being able to unfold and expand to carry a large number of boxes.

Being able to put into a long horizontal position allows the Rock N Roller carts to carry unusual loads that might not stack in a stable fashion on a typical upright dolly.

[Rock N Roller offer this same design in multiple sizes. They seem to be a favorite among touring musicians.--OH]

Magnetic Doorstop

"QUOTE"
I frequently have windows open in the house and have for years put up with doors slamming closed when the wind catches them. I have finally found a solution in the form of these magnetic door catches.

They work excellently and I have installed them on most doors throughout the house. I have used them for several years and always show them off to the house guests. I can now leave windows open without a door slamming shut. One minor drawback is that they are a little loud when the magnet makes contact with the catch. Finally, care should be taken when installing to make sure the two parts align well otherwise the magnetic hold will be weaker. Via: Boingboing

Dremel 4000 Must Be Two Times Better than the Dremel 2000

Do-It-Yourself humans! Lust for the Dremel 4000—the magic rotating tool that can sand surfaces, carve wood, polish metal, scramble eggs, mix cocktails, and overstimulate naughty bits with different tips—for it's the new king of the multifunction tool hill.

It has new replaceable motor with electronic feedback control, which in theory will give you consistent speed under pressure. The speed range goes from 5,000 to 35,000 revolutions per minute, and it has the obligatory backward compatibility with all your existing Dremel tips. [Dremel], Via: Gizmodo

Tool Music Videos, Greatness…...

Tool’s music videos are hypnotic, and mind blowing. The videos are all stop motion animation, directed by various people but all fairly consistant with each other. The visuals are like a cross between a sound stage from se7en and one of david lynch’s nightmares. Not to mention the music kicks ass.
