‘Fall’ Tea Maker

2009100906

Someone likes strong tea while others may prefer weak tea, so how could a family with different tastes share one pot of tea? The so-called “Fall” tea kettle allows you to control the strength of tea with a sliding strainer. By judging the color of the tea water, you can easily withdraw the sliding strainer from the hot water at any point you want. If you’d like the tea to be stronger, just push down the sliding strainer and continue to brew the tea. Moreover, the heating station wouldn’t transmit any heat to the tea kettle unless its concave heating transfer is placed onto the base.

In that case, you may need the hacky sack counter, a gadget that is used to keep track of how many times you can keep the hacky sack up in the air without it falling. Perhaps you can also use the counter in a shuttlecock kicking game.

Self-Modeling Cabinet

2009100862

Yes, on the first sight, the cabinet has no differences with others. However, you will feel amazed when the cabinet is filled with clothes.
