Fun website that sells doo-hickies

This seems like the sort of website that would appeal to a lot of folks here.

I found it while Googling for insect habitats. Don't ask.

Oh, yeah, this is a very popular site for those into diy (do it yourself) audio who like to continually tweak their systems. Definitely some fun & interesting/odd stuff.

Have a working mosquito magnet that I could loan during the next few months, but something tells me you are looking for a hospitable habitat.

Just invert the masks and nets and such that keep them off us.

It is a great site. Know any good sites for rats? I know, you’re a dog person, but have to ask. My youngest wants one for Holidays and they seem very interesting. He is great with animals and reads everything he can find on animals all the time.

How are the OMs doing? I am building the inners to a new case for my OM-1 and some lenses this week (kids have off from school and so its family time).

Thanks Melanie! I love doo-hickies, and I think I just foundmy brother's x-mas present there!

oh, and is "insect habitat" just a fancy term for "ant farm?" just kidding 😉

They're a gas! Keep meaning to order a pile of rubber bugs or something equally useful. They seem like Edmund Scientific with a case of the giggles.

Off topic: Just started Elizabeth Marshall Thomas' wonderful Hidden Life Of Dogs. I'd read her book The Tribe of Tiger, about cats of all sizes, and loved her powers of observation. No genetics, though. (For that I picked up the latest issue of Make magazine.)

As nice as their site is you must visit the stores. I have been there many a time and I always find something cool that I must have.
