I am just now watching a show on HGTV (Home & Garden Television) about the 2002 National Hardware Show. It covered over a million square feet and ran three days recently in Chicago at McCormick Place.

You might want to check your local TV listings and see if you can catch this on HGTV later. It's really worth watching to see the latest gadgets.
How about a magnetic square you can use to hold projects together while you're working on them? Old news you say? Did I mention you can turn the magnet on or off with a switch?

Someone at my welding class was talking about that tonight. It must have been shown before I started watching the show. Was this one that ran off a 12V battery?

Re: 2002 National Hardware Show
Hi Gary,
I got to watch the show yesterday. Afterwards I told my wife that there were 3 things "I couldn't live without". [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] The first was the folding Utility Knife, then the Ti-Bone Hammer and Chuckable Pencil Sharpner. Some how I thought the show was 2 hrs last year. They didn't seem to have a lot of stuff on this year. Still was a good show. [img]/forums/images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

Re: 2002 National Hardware Show
Wow, Forget the hammer. Got on the website, it's $194.99. [img]/forums/images/icons/frown.gif[/img] I stick with my Estwing. Knife is $24.99. Pencil Sharpner isn't out yet. Forgot to mention the clamps. They looked pretty nice also.
