We’re all about tools that make life easier. This handy gadget does just that. Bosch’s Digital Angle Finder records into memory the measure of any angle or bevel.

Women have their jewelry boxes. Men have their tool chests. Until the 1930s, men housed their precious wares in hand-crafted cases like the Journeyman.

No more balancing a flashlight when working a two-handed project. Shaped like a mini naval mine, the Striker Magnetic Light houses a magnet on each of its twelve points.
