Sure, it's just a concept, but we'd be happy to mow the whole neighborhood's lawns aboard the Husqvarna Panthera Leo ($TBA).

Now there's an even better way to recycle your plastic two-liter bottles. Instead of taking them to the curb, just connect one to the Audubon Soda Bottle Bird Feeder ($15). Hang the sturdy cast zinc adaptor from a tree or pole, and you've created an economical, squirrel-proof bird feeder, satiating the neighborhood birds for months. It's gentler on the environment, and the birds will remember your kindness. Because you never know when that flock might turn on you.

One of the worst things about adding ice to a whisky is its ability to water-down the flavor. So chill your next drink down with Whisky Stones ($20).

Leave it to the air maestros at Dyson to create a fan with no blades. The Dyson Air Multiplier ($300-$330) uses a fairly ingenious design to suck air into the base, accelerating it through an small aperture in the device's ring and then over a ramp to channel its direction. As it happens, this also causes the air behind and around the machine to be drawn into the airflow, creating a smooth stream of air amplified 15 times, without the unpleasant buffeting caused by the blades of a traditional fan chopping the air. The only downside? It's a $300 fan.

Forget simulated wood grain — Shwood Sunglasses ($95) are handcrafted from actual wood. They're available in two basic styles, the Wayfarer-like Canby and the more squarish Govy, and can be ordered in a variety of different woods, all with your choice of Carl Zeiss lenses. Just remember: these probably aren't the best shades to wear to the beach, water park, or campfire — we're guessing they're at least a little flammable.
