? Hello dolly - For the hobbyist or professional who needs the ability to move their project car around the shop, assistance comes in the form of the Uni-Dolly from RD Enterprises. The tool is far more useful than individual dollys since each set of the system's six-inch casters/ wheels can be spread from 75-150 centimetres inches apart. Maximum height is 47 centimetres. Uni-Dolly can also be used regardless of whether your work in progress even has wheels. The Uni-Dolly will support up to 4,300 kilograms, yet each set weighs only 31 kilograms. Prices start at $389.

? Small-time racing - Kids both big and small will get a kick out of playing with the Champions Fold Go slot car race set. The beauty of this item is that it doesn't have to be plugged in (nor does it require batteries) so it can be played virtually anywhere. Each driver hand-cranks on individual controller/generators to make the two slot cars race around the track. And it quickly sets up and stows away in its own carrying case with a minimum of fiddling. The Champions Fold Go is available for about US $45 from a number of toy and hobby stores, or online at www.amazon.com (item #433-9097).
? The buy of the Sentry - If you tow a trailer, purchasing a US $120 Safety Sentry locking system is probably a good idea. This device will prevent your trailer from inadvertently disconnecting from its ball-type hitch and it can also stop trailer thieves dead in their tracks. The Safety Sentry attaches securely over the tongue and ball of most popular hitches and includes a stainless steel look. Visit www.safetysentryinc. com more details, including an instructional video and list of dealers. You can also source the product online at www.amazon.com and other resellers.
? Easy tint removal - No longer is it a challenge to remove old/worn window tinting, lettering or vinyl wrap from your vehicles. The Steamblade makes the job easier and safer than the traditional razor-blade approach through the application of warm, moist steam to the surface. In addition, it will also leave less adhesive residue behind once the job has been completed. The set comes with a 2.5metre hose attachment plus protective gloves (liquid cleaner sold separately). The Steamblade sells for US $325 and can be obtained from the manufacturer at www. jiffysteamer.com.
