Dart Coat Hooks

24 people recommended this item

Description

Dart Coat Hooks

Fix them on the wall and hang your coats on them!

Once these are screwed firmly into the wall with their special fixing (no these are not just ordinary darts) they are remarkably sturdy. Made from polished chrome steel they will hold up the heaviest hats and coats in style. Screw them into the back of your bedroom door for the ultimate in Grange Hill chic!

3 dart hooks in every pack. Full-sized, just like heavy, high-quality darts. Not like those horrible darts your dive of a local pub has for you to drunkenly toss into the wall. (via Fun Housewares)

Ergonomical Fire Extinguisher

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

One of man's first big accomplishments was figuring out how to make fire. Then he had to figure out how to put it out before burning the whole damn place down.

Here's a stylish way to keep some control.

from the Design Blog:
Sporting a simple, fuss-free form, the X Sting Wish couldn’t have got more user-friendly. Just like a gun, aim and pull the trigger. Tweaked with many firing dousing options like CO², water and powder, it also features in-built LEDs that can help to illuminate your way to the problem area.

First to recommend

Description

There is also a matching wine rack available.

From the site:

Make drinks, not war with this Vietnam-era artillery case that was salvaged and renovated into a peaceful and rustic-looking wine bar that holds 3 bottles, 6 glasses and still has space for tools. Closed, it is a rugged and nostalgic decorative box; open, it finds purpose as a functional serving station. The perfect gift for wine enthusiasts or anyone looking to add a unique twist to the average bar. Manufactured in the USA.

Giancarlo de Astis Aeronautical Furniture

First to recommend

Description

I bet this is what Superman would put in HIS house....

Take a look at the desk. Purrr....

via Born Rich:

Motoart is not the only company that turns vintage aviation parts into fixtures for the home and office. Giancarlo De Astis is a Los Angeles based designer who picks airplane parts dumped in Arizona junkyards and turns them into stylish furniture. During this inventive process, flaps, wings, canopies, turbines and other parts of aircrafts are reborn as distinct and functional furniture — desks, tables, credenzas, cabinets, and lamps. Some of his most amazing creations are the Latro Primo desk, the Lo Squalo club chair, and the Sole conference table. The Latro Primo ($5,500- $8,900) is made from the rear stabilizer of a Beechcraft 18/C-45. The Lo Squalo club chair ($5,000- $8,500) is made from the air cooling engine scoop of a DC6/7. The II Sole conference table ($10,000) has been inducted in The Smithsonian Institute’s National Air Space Museum and is made from the first stage of a Pratt & Whitney JT8D jet engine case fan.

Customers can even customize these fixtures to suit their liking. Giancarlo precisely selects each airplane part that beams the brilliance of its engineered design. The kind of aeronautical art Giancarlo De Astis creates is sure enough to amaze the observers. (via Born Rich)

Benelli Tornado Tre Motorcycle

First to recommend

Description

May I introduce you to my ride? And to the one I will hopefully soon be stepping out on her with.. The heir and the spare, so to speak... I put up pictures of both.

The Tornado Tre and the Naked 1130. purrrrr..... Yes. I do need two. One for the track. Bite your tongue.

If you have a clever little "aww, look, a wee little leprechaun bike for a wee little Irish girl" cracks, put your mouth to better use. I've heard them. All of them. Ha ha and ha. Say it louder, please. At 155 mph it's hard for me to hear your wittiness.

There is nothing "wee" about these beasts. I was leaning towards an MV Augusta (wouldn't have been a bad lean- great bikes) and then nearly swayed after a visit to the Ducati factory in Borgo Panigale last year to slide over that way.... but then I met the Benelli. Oh. My. God. I was in love.

It was a bright and cloudless day. My mood was, as usual, volatile with just a touch of narcissism and an underlying base of genetically encoded guilt. I was moseying to my car when suddenly... god I still smile when I think of it... a Benelli pulled in next to me.

I know a bit about bikes. I even go to bike shows with all the shiny, happy new models. And have always been prone to the Italian stallions. But I had never, ever seen a Benelli.

The gentleman who owned it was kind enough to let me fondle it unabashedly. Had there been a side table, I would have left some money on it when I walked away. I really, really loved that bike.

And it turns out that I'm not the only one who gets hot and bothered around them. Fast forward a bit and now it is my baby who gets manhandled when people see it. It's a truly stunning bike in person and very rare to see on the road. So if you're in the market for something to free your mind and let your soul have a bit of fun, give Benellis a look.

________________________
From the site:
The Benelli Tornado Tre was first seen in 1999, and heralded the revival of the Benelli superbike.

One of the most striking features of the Benelli Tornado is its futuristic design. Including stacked headlights, flush mounted indicatiors, aggressive side panels, and angular seat unit with an under-seat mounted radiator with fans visible from the rear.

Powering the Benelli Tornado Tre is an inline three-cylinder engine producing 140 horsepower. This is mounted in a chrome-moly steel tube and cast aluminium frame.
