Remember when

Your mom hide it from you perhaps?

 

I would kill to have any of those tabletop ones.

 

I still have mine and occasionally play it, mostly to annoy my wife.

 

My fav toy growing up.
Play with this for hours.
Then I fell down the stairs with it.

 

You are NOT to blame for taking the stairs & crashing with it.
The compass is completely backwards!!?? No wonder you got lost.

 

I was very focused on my position.
That makes me feel so much better.
I can finally put that horrendously bad part of my life behind me.
You Sir, have changed my life.
Much respect..

 

Remember when you used this for grass trimming, on your hands and knees.
Then mom would complain about the grass stains on your pants.
You were a kid and had no knee problems.

 

Pops had the long handle version that i used. No bending required.

 

Never saw one with a handle before.
Now days if you made your kids trimm grass by hand it would be called child abuse.

 

They wouldn't know which end faces down.
The one my father had was able to swivel 90 deg.

 

I remember seeing one.

 

You all remember this from NBC?

 

Also

 

Windshield wipers. Used to only have to remember one number for Both sides.

 

You had colors!

 

And only one speed. However, my first ones worked by a vacuum motor, let off the gas and they would fly.
