Happy Holidays Everyone!
If you're a few weeks behind like I am, here is a great belated gift for anyone working with electronics: automatic wire strippers.
What makes them great is that they just happily do the job of stripping the insulation of...
A half round desk with different levels not the traditional way they have been made. Some levels that you can move in different directions. Touch drawers that open. A holder for an electronic pencil sharpener to hold in place for when your in a hurry...
For me, the wishlist would be simple assuming one item below 50eur: a screen for a raspberry, such as the dfr0428.
While you do a lot remote, working on the device is often much easier/faster, especially when troubleshooting stuff related to networki...

….Sight.
Over the years I have first hand experience of the unimaginable pain of getting the spark from a spot welding gun in my eye and having the debris removed. I bare the scar on my eye to prove my stupidity. Fortunately it never aff...

What hard-working Elf hasn't experienced that distinctive 'rinkle tinkle' sound of a fastener or tool disappearing into the darkest of inaccessible depths of despair ?Avoid another 'spanner in the works' type predicament with one ...
Hi,
I tinker a lot at my work and open up a lot of machines to fix and set them up. In some cases, I have to dive into the system peripherals where screws aren't actually open-friendly (even after saying "open-sesame" or "please").
I saw from Newark ...
A good engineer need to have lots of tools and parts.
From screwdrivers ,cutters and pliers over soldering irons to scopes and testers. So a good gift for an engineer would be a complete set of tools.... Or a diverse set of parts to use in proj...
Dear Santa,
I have been good this year, but sometimes I get hurts with the sharp edges of the little toys my dad built for me.
Please, for Christmas, give him a nice DEBURRING TOOL!
Ok, it's not a mainstream tool, it's not the first tool that every...
For most electrical engineers who use solder iron, it is difficult to operate on compact size PCB. One portable magnifier can help do soldering manually with easy.

Crimp connectors are relatively inexpensive, ubiquitous and convenient. But often times, hobbyists and beginners will buy a packet of tools which comes with a crimp tool that looks like this:
After fighting with it, perhaps stepping on the handles t...
An Engineer reads alot, I'm married to one and I see book after book, on any subject from planes to cars to general news. A good read along with a nice notebook or diary and pen is so perfect. Perhaps then my diaries won't go missi...
Electronic parts keep getting Smaller. And Smaller.
And my eyes aren't what they used to be. I have a nice portable Bausch & Lomb magnifier with really good glass, but it isn't lit and sometimes I have to move to better...
So you're a maker? You design and build your own PCBs? You want to design and build your own PCBs? You need to stay clean and stay safe with these three products:
ESD safe cleaning brush
Lint free paper wipes

I'm a maker and I'm a vise-aholic.
I have a bunch of vises and maybe a few vices as well, but I use vises on pretty much every project I do.
They are the helping third hand that is always available and never complains.
They take all kinds of abuse wi...
The key to an organized workspace is storage. And this product is an excellent high density solution to storing your surface mount components (or other small items). At a tiny 1.18" x 8.94" x 6.69" (30mm x 227mm x 170mm) si...
All those number displays make you forget to appreciate the real dimensions. An analogue caliper gives a much better sense of (small) size. It is like a ruler with a build in microscope. And it does not run out of batteries.

Hopefully this is the correct place for Secret Santas.
I may be biased but I think everyone should have their own small mobile robot - just for fun. Farnell provide a decent kit chassis suitable for this.

As someone who does a lot of 3D printing, I think a perfect Secret Santa gift would be a set of small files to help clean up your prints.
Newark has a nice set with a larger handle for comfortable use.
