How do you store your bicycle? On a shelf, of course!

If you don’t have a garage or a covered storage area outdoors where you live, you probably have to drag your bike into your house/apartment/condo for storage.  Once it’s in your living space, where do you store it to keep it out of the way?  Well, with the Knife & Saw Bike Shelf, you could hang it on the wall.  The Bike Shelf is made of wood and designed to easily install into wall studs for maximum strength, leaving only screw holes when removed.  And as the name suggests, there’s shelf space where you could store your helmet, books, or decorative items.

The Shelf is available in solid Eastern black walnut with a hard-wax oil finish or in solid white oak with the hard-wax oil finish.  Before placing your order, you’ll need to use Knife & Saw’s fitting guide to determine if you need the standard or small size for your bike.

Regardless of the size needed or the wood type, the Bike Shelf is $325.00.  Place your order at The Knife & Saw website.

The Papago Airfresh S10D Air Purifier will help you to fight your allergies while on the go


As allergy season continues to take hold of its victims by storm, many of us allergy sufferers have spent a fortune on in-home devices to help us to make it through the season. But what about the hours upon hours that some of us spend in our cars, sneezing and wiping away the tearing from our eyes as we try to make it through rush hour traffic to get to where we are going.

PAPAGO AIRFRESH S10D Air Purifier seems to be just the right solution for combating allergies when on the go. According to the manufacturer, this air purifier “Continuously releases positive & negative ions to generate a plasma reaction to release energy”. It automatically purifies small and harmful PM2.5 fine particles (“PM2.5 refers to atmospheric particulate matter (PM) that have a diameter of less than 2.5 micrometers”), and it does not require a filter to do so. It also monitors the temperature and humidity and allows the use of hand gestures so that it can be safely controlled during the operation of a motor vehicle.

If you are an allergy sufferer like me, you can head over to Amazon and read much more about the PAPAGO! AIRFRESH S10D Air Purifier, or just go ahead and pick one up to fight your allergy symptoms while on the go. It can be purchased for $149.99

The Cat Solarium lets your cat enjoy the outdoors without leaving the house

Indoor cats always like to look outdoors, but sometimes there isn’t a window with a good perch where they can sit to enjoy the view.  With the Cat Solarium, they can enjoy the view and the fresh air from the safety of a window.  The Solarium fits into a window a bit like how a window air conditioner fits.  It has bars to keep the cat from jumping out.  The top is made of Plexiglass so the cat can enjoy sitting in the sun.

The basic structure is made of ¾” cabinet-grade plywood and painted with marine-grade paint. These are very durable, sun- and water-resistant structures – strong enough to hold a 50+ lb cat.  You can add a a Plexiglass back panel with a cat door insert to keep the outdoor air outside.  Other options include a Solarium pillow, cat perch/landing to help the cat easily enter the Solarium, mesh screen to keep insects out, and a Plexiglass weather enclosure.  To use the Solarium, your window opening must be 24.5″ wide and raise up 14.5″.  The manufacturer includes heavy gauge vinyl with industrial strength Velcro for a temporary cover for gaps surrounding the installed Solarium.

The Solarium is available in a variety of packages, from the Sun Room with a Plexiglass back panel with a cat door and the mesh screen for $299.99 to the Conservatory package with Plexi back panel with cat door, custom pillow, cat perch, weather enclosure, and mesh screen for $379.99.

Each kit comes with an Allen wrench for assembling the Solarium.  The wrench and 20 minutes are all you need for building the kit.  Illustrated instructions are available on the website.

The Cat Solarium can be purchased at their website.

The Impact 4 Socket Fluorescent Fixture gives the right light for the right mood


Getting back to the subject of lighting, those of us in the photography and videography industry are forever working with lights and looking for the “right” light or lighting fixture. Different types of lights offer different positive and negative characteristics, including the ability to create moods and effects. For example, there is a difference in lighting between, halogen light, LED lights, and fluorescent lights.

The Impact 4 Socket Fluorescent Fixture supports up to 4 CFL 50 watt bulbs for a total of 200 watts of output power. The fluorescent bulbs provide stay-cool lighting in a portable and compact design. The fixture features a standard 5/8” receiver that mounts on any 5/8” stud or accessory, and the bracket tilts and locks in position. It also has a built-in receptacle so that a photo umbrella can be mounted on it. It accepts Edison Base CFLs and comes with a 1-year limited warranty.

You can purchase the Impact 4 Socket Fluorescent Fixture at B&H Photo Video for $99.95.

Forget trying to re-cork your wine

Forget those fancy metal and silicone stoppers, too.  You can seal off an unfinished bottle of wine with an inflatable Air Cork that creates a “protective, impermeable seal between the bottle’s contents and the taste-altering air above.”

Just lower the inflatable air bladder into the bottle until it just touches the liquid, then pump the grape cluster to inflate the bladder until it expands to the exact shape of the bottle.  The air-tight seal will protect your wine for three days.  If you aren’t ready to drink the wine yet, just give the pump a few more squeezes to tighten up the seal.  When you are ready to drink the wine, just press the valve to release the seal.

The Air Cork contains plastic, rubber, silicone, stainless steel, and a medical-grade latex balloon.  It is not dishwasher safe and should be hand-rinsed.  You’ll actually get two of the latex balloons in the kit.

The Air Cork is $28.50 at UncommonGoods.
