    01

    miniot-wood-pouch-2

    Miniot Wood Pouch ----------------- Your iPhone is made of glass and aluminum—not exactly the warmest materials to the touch. Enter the Miniot, a slide-on case that's carved in Holland out of a single piece of wood (choose from several varieties). __$77 and up__ | [Miniot Wood Pouch](https://www.miniot.com/webshop/)

    worx-sd-semiautomatic-driver-2

    Worx SD SemiAutomatic Driver ---------------------------- In its quest to keep your most-used bits easily accessible, this lithium-ion-powered driver seems to have borrowed its design from Smith & Wesson: It features a six-shooter-like chamber that makes swapping tips as simple as a round of Russian roulette. __$50__ | [Worx SD SemiAutomatic Driver](http://www.worx.com/en-US/WORX-SD.aspx)
  • Chris Ware's Building Stories
    03

    chris-wares-building-stories-2

    Chris Ware's Building Stories ----------------------------- The hugely inventive Chris Ware, whose art has graced many a New Yorker cover, brings us a graphic novel Happy Meal. Inside the oversize cardboard carton you'll find 14 goodies including pamphlets, newspapers, hardcover booklets, posters, a story about a soda-besotted honeybee, and a children's book. It all paints a sprawling portrait of an old apartment building and its grimly funny residents. __$50__ | [Chris Ware's Building Stories](http://www.amazon.com/Building-Stories-Chris-Ware/dp/0375424334)
  • Hasbro Furby
    04

    hasbro-furby-2

    Hasbro Furby ------------ The secret to the original Furby wasn't its fun factor (which is questionable); it's that the critter was insanely hackable. Fourteen years later, the high-maintenance robotic tribble is back—screeching, singing, and crying with updates like LCD eyes, capacitive touch sensors, and an app. Gentlemen, start your soldering irons. __$60__ | [Hasbro Furby](http://www.furby.com/en_US/)
  • Kelty Folding Cooler

    kelty-folding-cooler-2

    Kelty Folding Cooler -------------------- An empty cooler is as efficient a use of your trunk as a blown-up beach ball. When this zip-shut cooler is not in use, it collapses like an accordion and packs easily. Fave feature: The quartet of built-in drink holders up top. __$76__ | [Kelty Folding Cooler](http://www.kelty.com/p-579-folding-cooler.aspx)

    Bodum Fyrkat Portable Grill --------------------------- This pint-size charcoal grill's locking lid, waiflike weight—just 5.6 pounds—and heat-shielding silicone grip make it easy to carry with one hand (leaving the other free for the six-pack). Perfect for burgering at the beach or on the balcony. __$50__ | [Bodum Fyrkat Portable Grill](http://www.bodum.com/us/en-us/shop/detail/11421-01/?navid=-1)
