Crawford-Lehigh RC40 40-Foot Retractable Clothesline

Childrens Toy Shop > Tools & Hardware > Hardware
from: Crawford-Lehigh


I really like my clothesline! I hung it between my privacy fence and my deck, and it's the perfect spot for it; I like that when I'm entertaining, I can just let it retract and it's out of sight.

That said, it could be better designed as far as the retraction goes.

The problem comes in when you're not using the full 40 ft. When open and in use, you have to loop it around the little pedicle at the bottom of the housing to keep it from retracting and to keep the line taut. However, looping it around and keeping the line super-taut at the same time is nearly impossible, so the line does sag a little too much. Because I hung the line so high up, it's okay as long as I double my sheets when hanging them, but otherwise ... Read More:

This mailbox was just what I had been searching for. The only possible drawback is that the handle is plastic. I hope it lasts with years of use. Otherwise, perfect!

Chamberlain Whisper Drive 1/2 HP Garage Door Opener #WD822KD

Childrens Toy Shop > Tools & Hardware > Hardware
from: Chamberlain


This opener is a significant step forward in this business.
It is indeed very quiet due to belt and spring buffer, a small and cheap addition, almost eliminate ugly buckling. Sectional rail is a great innovation. It makes shipping easy and cheap and provides installation flexibility. Wide range of accessories is also something that everybody would like. And all this is achieved for a very moderate price.
A fixed length of the belt is the only disadvantage. There must've been different lengths of belt available so that an installer could choose from for different number of sections or there must've been a kit provided that allows to change belt length according to number of sections used.

Bell Key 'N Go Steel Cable Padlock for Bike

Childrens Toy Shop > Tools & Hardware > Hardware
from: Bell


While this obviously is a very well known brand and is a quality product Bell has failed to provide a well made lock it seems the shakle is thin and easily cut with a bolt cutter or some other tool however the body of the lock is hardened steel case which stands up to punnishment like dropping etc, I replaced this lock with a better quality lock that I know I can trust, the steel cable is very good

M-D Building Products 1610 Steel Door Magnetic Weatherstrip, 36-by-81 Inches, Beige

Childrens Toy Shop > Tools & Hardware > Hardware
from: M-D Building Products


I installed this on our metal outside doors. I replaced the existing magnetic weather stripping which the previous owners cut too short and therefore allowed air infiltration. This weather stripping was simple to install -- took less than a half hour including multiple times trimming a small bit at a time so that it wasn't too short.

A couple of installation tips. The manufacturer recommends using a utility knife to cut it to size. I found that using tin snips gave a nice clean cut through the magnet and vinyl. Also after installation, I was having a gap at the bottom of the door -- door warped, wood trim not straight, whatever. The solution was to just pull out the weather stripping slightly such that it made good contact with ... Read More:

Wordlock PL-002-RD 5-Dial Padlock, Red

Childrens Toy Shop > Tools & Hardware > Hardware
from: Wordlock


I bought this lock more as a curiosity but when I started to use I got hooked. This is one terrific product. You simply pick a word that is available on the dial and lock it in. Much better than trying to remember some obscure number that makes no sense.

Mirka 23-615-100 5" 8-Hole 100 Grit Dustless Hook & Loop Sanding Discs - 50 Pack

Childrens Toy Shop > Tools & Hardware > Hardware
from: Mirka


This is my third box of this stuff, and I don't see any reason to buy anything else. I have used a few brands of discs. most are OK. this is as good as any, and better then most. paper is nice and thick and holds up well. the stuff stays sharp. There are better brands, but they tend to be about 75 cents a sheet. This stuff also beats the pants off the crud you get at HD too

Master Lock 3023AT Assorted Bungee Cords, 24-Pack

Childrens Toy Shop > Tools & Hardware > Hardware
from: Master Lock


Wow! These are much higher quality than I expected for the price. The hooks are a double loop which makes them more sturdy and without a sharp point. All of the bungees are very heavy duty and there are enough of them to put some in the utility room, some in my car and some in my girlfriends car (never know when you're going to need a bungee -- almost as versatile as duct tape). I am very impressed!
