Candle By The Hour - Price: $35
Where to Get It - www.Signals.com
How many people do you know that need one more candle? Well, chances are, no one on your list has a candle like this. It combines old-time charm and usefulness with twenty-first century creativity. The candle is made up of a beeswax coil that is wound around a footed, brass burning plate. In the open center of the candle, there is a brass rod fitted with a caliper. If you extend about three inches of wax into the caliper, the candle will burn for about an hour before it puts itself out. Need a little bit less light? An inch will get you around twenty-five minutes. The entire coil is a hefty 157 ½ inches long, and provides around 60 hours of burn time. You can even get replacements, since this candle is sure to be a hit.

Cameras are a dime a dozen, and although digital cameras are a lot of fun, this gift turns the analog way of life into an adventure. This kit will allow you to take actual photographs - without the benefit of a camera! This form of photography is known as cyanotypes, or "sunlight" prints. This is the oldest form of known photography, and even though we live in a digital age, it's always great to go back to our roots. The kit comes with sunlight sensitive paper, templates, and of course, instructions on how to start making your very cyanotype. Once you've honed up your skills, you can take cyanotypes of just about anything you find around the house, or the yard, making it a great family project. 80 pages of paper come with the kit, giving you more than enough to learn, hone and really enjoy your craft.

These are some good ideas. My in-laws have pretty much everything they need, and if they don't they can certainly get it if they want. This gives me a good place to start. Thanks!
Honestly I would rather spend more money & pick up 1 or 2 things, then get him a whole bunch of smaller items. My husband wants something to use while we go camping, so I am looking at electric scooter, gas scooter, moped or something.
