Calumet Multi Clip
March 9, 2010
These double-sided clips from Calumet are perfect for controlling light within small-scale or tabletop photography setups. The sprung clips rotate on the steel U that connects them, so they’re easily manipulated to stand on their own, with one clip acting as a foot while the other clasps the reflector.

MSI caught showing off VoIP video conferencing phone running Android
March 6, 2010
There are already plenty of fish in the sea when it comes to VoIP picture-frame phones, and only a few have succeeded in arousing us, but this well-guarded fella here at MSI ’s CeBIT booth seems to have some potential with its unusually large touchscreen. According to the label, the MS-9A31 landline-VoIP hybrid phone will support DECT , video conference call and instant messaging, all courtesy of Android . A quick glance around the phone also reveals two LAN ports, a USB port and a card reader — the latter two presumably for stuffing multimedia files.

OXO Strainer
March 5, 2010
The OXO Steel Strainer really qualifies as a cool tool because it takes an everyday tool that everyone knows and makes it so much better. It’s the nicest Hawthorne strainer I’ve ever seen, dispensing with the useless handle, and adding a nice little rubber pad to put your index finger on as you strain. It’s a joy to use.

We know you’ve got questions, and if you’re brave enough to ask the world for answers, here’s the outlet to do so. This week’s Ask Engadget question is coming to us from Sami, who apparently thinks that touchscreens are totally useful even in the frigid wilds of (gorgeous) Finland

Wall Whale
March 4, 2010
I used a normal pool brush before, and always had the problem with the brush not sticking to the wall. I would normally have to use a lot of force to successfully brush a vertical section of pool wall. Then the brush finally broke.

Saral Transfer Paper
March 3, 2010
Before I start a new painting, I usually draw what I want in Adobe Illustrator, and then transfer a printout of that drawing to canvas or board to paint. I’ve tried opaque projectors, but the image is faint (at least on the el-cheapo version I use) and I don’t really have room to set it up. I’ve also tried using a piece of paper that I’ve rubbed pencil or charcoal on, but that produces a blurry line.

At first sight it’s a nice-looking puffy jacket. Then someone picks up said puffy jacket and throws it at you

MakerBot Cupcake CNC
February 25, 2010
I highly recommend the MakerBot Cupcake CNC, a very cool tool! I’m an engineering student and worked as an intern for MakerBot last summer, which gave me the opportunity to play around with their bots a lot. I got one for myself, and am very happy with it. For those unfamiliar with the MakerBot Cupcake CNC, it’s a desktop 3D printer that takes digital design files and builds objects up to approximately the size of a large cupcake by laying down many minute layers of ABS plastic.
