This tip comes from Smart Stuff subscriber Björn O. He found this clever hanger on British Manufactum web store. What it is? Well, it's a smart holder/hanger for when you want to use an ordinary clothesline to dry your shirts or sweaters or whatever. What often happens when you do this, is that all the shirts tend to slide down to the lowest part of the clothesline, i.e. the middle. This clothes hanger holder sticks to the clothesline and the hangers stay put. It's GBP 6:50 (approx. USD 9:70) for five pcs. Thanks, Björn, for the tip! 13 November 2008 Fold-out ironing board and ironing stuff in own cabinet. Ironing board, iron and ironing stuff has a tendency to lie around and be in the way. Or at least to lie around and look like clutter. We have been thinking of a dedicated ironing cabinet like this for some time, but it was not until the other week we stumbled upon this solution from Nimoverken. A decent wall mounted cabinet with a fold-out ironing board and room for everything you might need go get the job done. And afterwards it all goes away into the cabinet. Goodie. 12 November 2008 Exercise machine for the disabled. Disabled people rarely get enough exercise. This is of course for the obvious reasons, but also because care staff often don't have the time to help them with more than the bare essentials like food, hygiene and medication. People confined to wheelchairs, for example, often don't get to exercise their legs enough which in time can lead to atrophy or cardiovascular problems. If one could help them move their legs, their situation would improve greatly. This new Swedish exercise machine, the Actileg invented by Sten Bodin, is one way of achieving this. The Actileg basically consists of two sets of pedals with a set of gears in between that lets both patient and care giver pedal in the same direction. It looks a bit like two opposed recumbent bikes. Either person can set the pace, but if the patient doesn't have the strength he or she can just follow the pedals along. Even such a half-passive movement can improve circulation and help avoid future trouble. The Actileg has patents pending and Sten Bodin is presently looking for interested manufacturers for his invention. 7 November 2008 THIS MONTH HAS MORE PAGES \|..1..2..3 DEPARTMENTS \| APPAREL \| APPLIANCES \| BAR \| BBQ \| BICYCLE \| CAR \| CHILDREN \| COMPUTERS/TELECOM \| CULTURE \| DVD \| EDIBLES \| ENVIRONMENT \| FLASHLIGHTS/TORCHES \| FOOTWEAR \| GARDEN \| HOME \| INTERNET \| INVENTIONS A-Z \| KITCHEN \| KITCHEN FURNITURE \| LEISURE \| LINKS \| META \| MISC. \| MOTOR CYCLES \| OUTDOORS \| PETS \| PERSONAL CARE \| PHOTOGRAPHY \| READER'S CHOICE \| SAFETY AND SECURITY \| SERVICES \| SMART STUFF aSTORE \| SOLAR POWER \| SOUND AND MUSIC \| SWEDISH \| THIRD WORLD \| TRAVEL \| TOOLS \| VIDEO \| WATER \| WORK TIPS AND TRICKS \| APPAREL \| BAR AND DRINKS \| BICYCLE \| CAR AND DRIVING \| COMPUTERS \| CULTURE AND LEARNING \| GARDENING \| HOME \| INTERNET \| KITCHEN AND COOKING \| OUTDOORS \| PETS \| TRAVEL \| WORK AND BUSINESS Did you find the information on this site useful?
