Whether you're measuring parking lot slope, the slope of a handicapped access ramp, the slope of a sewer pipe, or the slope of a ditch, understanding what slope is and how it affects the world we live in is important.

The Safco Vamp LED Desk Lamp

We don't usually write about desk lamps. I mean, a desk lamp is a desk lamp, right? Behold the Safco Vamp LED Desk Lamp. When we got a sample of this LED Desk Lamp here for the office first thoughts were that it was very plain and simple looking. But then upon closer inspection we realized this was not your ordinary desk lamp. It's certainly not a cheap desk lamp, its a well-made lamp that's very bright, and very useful. Its arms are adjustable and you can rotate the lamp head and aim the light almost anywhere it's needed. The base is heavy and the lamp stays firmly planted even if you extend the arms way out further than you think you should. The base has a USB charging port for your iPhone or Android device, which works great at the office where you can work and charge your phone at the same time. The controls on the base feature a 7-step touch dimming function that includes warm or cool light settings which rounds this desk lamp as an EngineerSupply favorite.

Engineering and Surveying Field Books

Engineering and Surveying Field Books are hardback books that are made with stiff paper pages, and quality sewn backing and bindings. The pages are filled with grid patterns so that proper notes and drawings can be recorded while in the field and later transferred in the office. Some notes have to be "reduced" such as measurements taken by a Theodolite. Many times land surveyors will carry a field book to record notes that are not generally taken or recorded by a Total Station or Data Collector. Field books are widely used in the Mining Industry as well. We carry Engineering Log Books, Land Surveyors Field Books, and Mining Transit Field Books.

Utility Marking Paint by Seymour

Seymour Paints makes Utility Marking Paint. For those that know what utility marking paint is, then you know this is one of the best brands of marking paint available. For those that don't know what utility marking paint is, it's like a regular can of spray paint yet it's made with a special nozzle so that it sprays while held upside down while marking manhole tops, sewer lines, valve boxes, water lines, electrical lines and more. It's also great for construction stake-out where surveyors mark where structures such as curb and gutter, manholes, building footers and corners, will be built. Marking paint is also made so that it dries super fast and washes off after a few months in the weather. It is not as permanent as regular spray paint. Sold by the case, it's best to stock up and maybe buy more than you think you'll need since once you find a use for it, you'll use it often.

Blueprint Drawing Hanging Clamps

If you're looking for Blueprint Drawing Hanging Clamps, you've found the right place. Basically speaking, drawing clamps (aka blueprint clamps) are aluminum clamps made out of two pieces of aluminum that clamp a set of construction documents or drawings and hold them vertical, and not flat. The clamps then hang from hangers that are part of a blueprint storage system usually in the form of a rolling blueprint stand or rack, but sometimes can be an enclosed metal cabinet. Either way, the clamps are being held and the drawings are being held by the clamps which best organizes your drawings or blueprints for quick and easy retrieval.

Drone Deliveries to Mobile GPS Location

Wild thought or not so wild thought? One day you may be able to have a delivery made to your GPS location ordering on your Mobile Device. The idea would be you place the order online using your Mobile Device (by then we will probably just call everything a "Device" and no longer use the term "PC" or "Tablet" or "Smart Phone). Once the order is placed you would decide if you want your order shipped to a location, or delivered to you via drone to your GPS location. Imagine ordering a tool on a construction site and within hours you'd receive the delivery by drone. While EngineerSupply doesn't deliver by drone (yet) but it is an interesting thought to say the least when you consider the logistics and possibilities of mobile commerce and distribution. Or, you're in the desert on a hiking trip and run out of water, so you order two bottled waters and a drone delivers them to your GPS location even if you've changed location and hiked further since you placed your order.
