    shopperciti.com: its a form of backdraft, when the fire is starved for oxygen so the force of the fire mixed with oxygen becomes greater as the seal on the tire closes. more »

    Multi-Functional MC Mallet Comes in a Flat-Pack

    This mallet is the most ingenious thing I've seen for a long time. While not normally a fan of flat-pack stuff — the only thing I have ever assembled from scratch (a wooden shelving unit from Shabbycrap Habitat) was so wonky that I had to jam a cold storage heater against it to stop it toppling over — I can so see the point of this. Designed by Liam Ryan for Vert, the MC Mallet costs Aus$40 ($35 in your money) and can be used for cooking, DIY or as a toy. [Vert via MoCo Loco]
