The best non-tool tool.

For those who may take apart things (like computers) with small metal parts (like screws), this may be the best non-tool tool: the Glade(?) candle holder with the magnetic bump in the middle (picture to follow someday if I do it before I forget about it). That thing is the best. You take out a small screw, and instead of putting it on the table, where is rolls around and falls on the floor when one of the kids bump the table, you put it in the little candle holder where it rolls happily to the center and sticky magnetically (magically?) to the bump in the middle. And its still there when you either begin to put the computer back together or give up. It’s a bonus if you give up because you have a few extra screws to add to your collection of screws that, at one time, came from some piece of equipment, but when you reassembled it, found its service was no longer required. Its also pretty neat that when you randomly drop the screws into the conveniently elevated surface (keeping it safely above the general clutter that might be your work area), they sometimes make cute little magnetic sculptures.

And, when you aren’t voiding warranties, you can burn the little candles in them and make the place smell good.
