Musical Furnishings - drum tables
4 people recommended this item
Description
This is possibly one of the most brilliant ideas ever.
The idea is this: each module conceals one musical instrument. Cowbell, tambourine, snare, tom-tom, etc. By simply hitting the top of the table, you can actually play your furniture!!
Absolutely wonderful, and each table is hand-made to order. Available in 2x2, 2x4, 3x3, and 4x4. You get to pick your modules/instruments, and the modules can be easily rearranged without tools.
Genius!

Knife hooks
8 people recommended this item
Description
Steve really likes throwing knives. It's something of a bone of contention at times.
"No, you cannot stick that giant knife in our wall, I don't care how cool a sound it's going to make."
So for all you would-be carnies, for everyone who has ever harbored dreams of running off and joining the circus...hell, for anyone who has just really enjoyed that one Clint Eastwood movie where he played a salty old knife-thrower who clipped his girl that one time....
These bitchin' wall hooks are for you.

Description
Chopsticks....that start off as regular silverware. GENIUS!
Just because we know how to use chopsticks well, doesn't mean everyone can! And this is an absolutely brilliant way to provide for everyone at your dinner without making anyone feel left out!
Good design is a wonderful thing. Excellent and practical industrial design is the MOST wonderful thing! (via Heather Snodgrass)

We are buying one of these the very moment they become commercially available.
You write your message on the top of the box, insert your bread, and voila!! You have a message burned into your toast.
Useless? Totally.
Amazing? Without a doubt!

The Little Guy - Pocket Cigar Cutter by Boston Cigar Cutter
First to recommend
2 people recommended this item
Description
Steve doesn't smoke cigars often, but when he does he ALWAYS uses this cutter.
Purchased from James Surrey Ltd., an extinct gift store in Tallahassee, Florida, in 1995, and still sharp and true!
The quality on these cutters is just amazing. The table models are commonly found in the better cigar stores with smoking lounges (at least, in states where you can still smoke indoors!), and considered to be the best among those "in the know", the pocket version is just as solid.
Available in a variety of woods, with brushed stainless steel, this thing looks the business and lives up to its big brother's reputation. Well worth the $$$ for anyone who truly enjoys a fine cigar.
(Steve's favorites, for the record, are Punch Pita Double Maduros for outdoor smoking, and Dunhill Romanos for indoor smoking.) (via Morris Fishman)

Description
How many crappy apartments have you wanted to decorate, only to look at your lease agreement and realize that any changes made to the apartment will result in the loss of your deposit and the beheading of your grandmother?
Mozaikits are a more affordable, more flexible option for decorating with vinyl decals. They come in 3 color packs (greens, reds, and blues) and can be used as squares or cut into tiny snowflakes or hearts or leaves or any other nifty little thing you can think of.

Camoflage 6-Pack Beer Tote
First to recommend
Description
Let's you carry a 6-pack of beer, while keeping it cold, without the bottles clanking together.
And it's camoflauge print.
It could only be more awesome if it came with a Motorhead CD.

Kids are people too. They're just smaller, and sometimes need helping wiping their butts. Plus, they can't drive worth a crap.
