Gifts For Him
Syma S107/S107G R/C Helicopter
This is a fantastic gift for the guys (or gals), it is a remarkable flying toy, and is recommended for those over fourteen years old – although as you will read further down in this review, several people feel that it can easily be controlled by someone younger than this.
This is modern technology in the palm of your hand! The helicoptor only measures around 7 1/2 inches long. It is fully functional and comes equiped with the very latest Gyroscope technology which is why it has become such a hot favorite within the remote control world.
You can charge the Syma S107/S107G R/C Helicopter either from the usb cable, or from the controller itself (this uses AA batteries).
This model gives a lovely smooth flight, and although it is recommended for aged 14 and up, it could be controlled by someone youger (with the necessary supervision). Just about everyone who has reviewed the Syma S107/S107G R/C Helicopter says that it is very easy to fly, and this is especially true for users that are making a comparison to other model helicoptors that they may have flown previosuly.
The helicoptor goes up, down, right, left forwards and backwards at a well balanced speed – not so slow that it becomes boring, nor so fast that you are not able to control it properly.
The helicoptor itself is made of metal and is very durable, and the rotor constructions means that the odd crash landing or hitting into walls does not spell disaster. One reviewer even commented that the Syma S107/S107G R/C Helicopter is virtually indestructible. Read the rest of this entry »
Black & Decker Workmate WM425
The Black & Decker Workmate WM425 is a great product for someone who loves diy, or that simply likes projects to get stuck into.
The WM 425 workmate is a heavyweight steel design and as such it can hold up to 550 pounds, yet it is still lightweight and easy to move around.
The working surface is strong and stable and it is supported with rubber feet. The one handed vice clamp system will let you adjust all the clamps together or each one on an individual basis.
The center panel is totally removable so you can easily make the Workmate into a bench tool stand or a spacious workbench. A couple of people that have bought the product did mention that using the Workmate as a tool stand was a great idea.
Generally the Black and Decker WM425 Workmate is a top of the range design that you could expect to get years of use out of, just like the other Black and Decker products
One of the great things that various reviewers loved about the Black and Decker WM425 Workmate is the fact that it is truly portable and easy to fold up to a nice compact size.
The one slight issue that a couple of people had was that it was not that easy to put it together, although to be fair everyone did manage this, it just took some a bit of time. The packaging for the product was also a bit lacking from some suppliers, but this was down to the companies selling the product rather than the product itself. Unfortunately, this can lead to your new workmate being delivered damaged. Luckily, you can easily overcome this by buying the product direct from an established company such as Amazon.
