Iron Man Coasters


When Tony Stark throws a house party, it's going to be over the top. However, no matter how much you want that canapé, you'd better not put your glass of scotch down on that original mid-century modern furniture. If you do, you're going to have to answer to Jarvis or J.A.R.V.I.S. Either of those is not going to end well.
That's why these are available all over the house hours before the guests arrive. These coasters, which come in a set of 4, light up and give your drink the same cold, blue glow of the Arc Reactor from Iron Man 3. They protect your table from your beverage of choice much like the Avengers protect the Earth. And they're a constant reminder to Tony Stark not to drink too much lest he end up passed out with a drink on his chest.

Kite Patch



For most of us, mosquitos are nothing more than a nuisance we have to tolerate when we spend time outdoors — for the rest, a mosquito bite can mean illness, or even death. The Kite Patch ($35) renders people virtually invisible to mosquitos, without the harmful, nasty chemicals found in many of the solutions we use today. These small stickers adhere to your clothing, disrupting mosquitos' ability to detect the carbon dioxide we exhale. Even better, when you buy ten Kites, they'll send ten more to a family in Uganda, where mosquito-born illnesses are more severe than anywhere else in the world.

Gatling gun motorcycle


Wow this is amazing. Show Stoppers Studio's built this dual Gatling gun motorcycle from scratch. It is truly a piece of work. It would be great in fighting zombies, ha ha. I would love to have one of these if I ever learned to ride a motorcycle.

Sig Sauer Samurai


This is the custom Sig Sauer Samurai. It is pretty unique and I like it. I don't know the price yet but it sure to be a lot.


Formed like the armor of an ancient Samurai warrior, this pistol keeps up the spirit of the old, famous warrior’s caste. The hand-crafted dragonhead of massive silver on the top of the slide mediates an impression of the artificial handcraft of the old Japanese sword smiths.

Bell & Ross Flight Instruments Collector's Box


You've seen this year's crop of Flight Instruments, and now it's time to see the complete collection. The Bell & Ross Flight Instruments Collector's Box ($32,900) includes all six of the highly-limited "instruments" — the BR 01 Heading Indicator, BR 01 Airspeed, BR 01 Climb, BR01 Horizon, BR01 Altimeter, and BR01 Turn Coordinator — encase in a handsome wooden and metal presentation box, with a numbered plaque, as well as holes in the top to allow the faces of the timepieces below to show through. Only 99 boxes are available, so if you're looking to add these to your collection, you'd best get a move on.

Micro Hatchet


The Joseph Bowen Micro Hatchet TAD Edition is unlike any other knife we’ve worked on. It’s not everyday that a knifemaker decides to condense the idea and capability of a hatchet into something you carry around your neck. Through great engineering, fine craftsmanship and the use of an Inuit style blade, Joseph was able to make this dream a reality with each Micro Hatchet taking 60 steps to produce.

Features:
  • One key advantage to the ulu blade is that the Micro Hatchet can easily be used one-handed. Additionally, due to it’s design centering the force of impact into the middle of the blade and overall blade shape, you can cut harder objects like bones.
  • Skeletonized to reduce weight, the knife features one large center hole to aid in different grip retentions and positions.
  • Chamfered edges around the entire hatchet make it easy to grip and reduce any potential fray with 550 Paracord.
  • With the combination of CTS-HXP steel and chisel-ground ulu blade, the Micro Hatchet has a small overall package with incredibly aggressive cutting capabilities.
  • Despite it’s size, the knife is just as comfortable with a three-finger grip or in reverse grip.
  • A Kydex slip sheath was designed to be worn around the neck. In addition to reducing weight, the back holes can be used for a lanyard.
     
With a family history as blacksmiths and commercial fishermen, Joseph Bowen learned at a young age the importance of a good knife. Over the years while on his way to becoming a professional tattoo artist, his interest in knives never waned. He took side jobs as a blacksmith and refined his woodworking and leather tooling skills. With the help of a chance encounter, Joseph for the last few years has spent all of his time and energy into his knifemaking, learning the ropes from the legendary Mike Snody.

Bulletproof Whiteboard

Wow I know its bad but what is our world coming to. I guess you need protction at our schools. In response to the most recent school shooting in Connecticut, military armor maker Hardwire has taken it upon themselves to create something that I never thought you’d need in school – bulletproof whiteboards and bag inserts to provide teachers and students with their last line of defense.




When faced with a shooter, they can basically take the bulletproof whiteboard and use it as a shield to protect themselves. The whiteboard comes with two handles so it’s easy to grip and handle. While the whiteboard might not be large enough to protect the body of an adult, it will be enough to at least shield the vital parts of the person’s body

They have also made inserts for your kids backpacks. The bulletproof whiteboard is available in two sizes: the smaller clipboard version costs $109 (USD), while the larger 18×20 inch board is priced at $299. It can shield a person’s head and torso. The bulletproof bag insert is priced at $100.
