Beyond being a flexible tool, there\u2019s something pleasing about how long lasting the tool has been and how ephemeral the blades are. I love looking at all the scuffs, dirt, and crusted epoxy on it and thinking about all the cool stuff my father made with it.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br clear=all><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2016\/11\/grinder-300x191.jpg\" alt=\"grinder\" width=\"300\" height=\"191\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-27771\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2016\/11\/grinder-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2016\/11\/grinder.jpg 576w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/bluebottlecoffee.com\/store\/porlex-mini-stainless-steel-coffee-grinder\" target=\"_blank\">Porlex Mini Stainless Steel Coffee Grinder<\/a> ($65)<br \/>\n&#8220;Grinding coffee just before preparation is key to a delicious cup. It\u2019s even better when the grind size is consistent. This little champ is small enough to fit inside of an aeropress and its spring tensioned conical burrs provide a precise and consistent grind on the go. With this  grinder and an aeropress, I can make delicious coffee in a hotel or even an airplane with minimal fuss.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br clear=all><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2016\/11\/spudger-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"spudger\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-27770\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2016\/11\/spudger-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2016\/11\/spudger-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2016\/11\/spudger.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Universal-Spudger-Opening-Tablets-Macbook\/dp\/B01DGNCNR0\/\" target=\"_blank\">Universal Black Stick Spudger<\/a> ($6)<br \/>\n&#8220;I\u2019ve been an Apple nerd since I was a kid. Recently I\u2019ve been collecting and restoring Vintage macs that I lusted after in the 90s. Most have blown capacitors, stuck floppy drives and other ailments. The humble black stick has myriad uses during an Apple operation. You have to be careful when buying these, as some are made of inferior bendy nylon \u2014 the stiff sticks are best.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br clear=all><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2016\/11\/standardbike-300x188.png\" alt=\"standardbike\" width=\"300\" height=\"188\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-27769\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2016\/11\/standardbike-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2016\/11\/standardbike-1024x640.png 1024w, https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2016\/11\/standardbike.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanmoof.com\/en_us\/buy-standard-straight\" target=\"_blank\">Vanmoof Standard<\/a> ($748)<br \/>\n&#8220;The best interface is no interface. Every time I ride my bike and lock it up I get a little giddy at how thoughtful the design is. A single speed with a pedal brake, integrated pedal-powered lights, and a built-in chain already attached to the frame make the act of actually riding so pure and enjoyable.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br clear=all><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cool Tools Show 067: Arion Paylo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13684,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1559],"tags":[1472],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27768"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13684"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27768"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27768\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27776,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27768\/revisions\/27776"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27768"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27768"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27768"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
