Tuff-Writer Pens

I enjoy objects that are really built to last, especially when something is essentially overbuilt from the outset; so these pens from Tuff-Writer appeal to me. Constructed from aerospace-grade Aluminium and using the same cartridges that give the enfuriatingly fiddly Fisher Space Pens their pull, these pens are about as practical as they get. Fisher have built military versions of their Space Pens in the past, but they can't match the rugged appeal of the Tuff-Writer efforts; indeed, the size of these pieces alone gives them a macho allure. (h/t Mil-Spec Monkey).

B&W's Zeppelin iPod Speaker Dock

These are ever so slightly cool. They should cost somewhere just shy of £300 when they're on sale in the UK. The slight premium over the new Bose Sounddock I think is a price worth paying to have one of these flash fuckers in your bedroom.

That'll distract from all the bloody rags and used needles...
