Self-cleaning BBQ
UNR Home Products has introduced the Happy Cooker Self-Clean, reportedly the world's first selfcleaning gas barbecue grill.
Use for all types ot pressuretreated wood applicatlons:
On Time Watering
Gardena's Watertimer controls the amount of time water flows from the tap to lawns or gardens. The timer can be set for periods from five minutes to two hours.
When the pre-set time has elapsed, the device automatically shuts off the waterflow. Made of high-impact plastic, the unit screws on any tap and connects to a hose with a click-on connector.

Preferential Treatment
Maze "PTL" nails for use with CCA treated wood are Stormguard processed (double hot-dipped zinccoated) which reportedly gives them superior protection against corrosive salts as compared to ordinary galvanized nails which may rust and mar expensive treated wood projects in just a few seasons.
Available in six sizes and three types, the product conforms to requirements of the National Forest Products Association.
Two special features are a dial setting which bypasses the timing control so it can stay attached to the tap when timed watering is not desired and a design that diverts the water directly from the tap to hose, helping eliminate wear and corrosion to the timing device.
