3M WorkTunes Hearing Protector, MP3 Compatible with AM/FM Tuner
I use these in the workshop and when mowing the lawn. They are designed to be hearing protection and an AM/FM radio. They have an audio-in jack for an mp3 player or scanner. Both the hearing protection and the sound quality are very good. I don't use them for short jobs but for extended protection they are great.

All-in-one AM/FM radio and hearing protector
Digital tuner; not bluetooth compatible.
MP3 or scanner compatible
Lightweight and comfortable
Innovative decibel limiter

The King of the Beasts is 8" X 10". To keep the board strong make sure you cut all the face features first. Then work on the mane. Use the color of your choice for the backer. I am showing him here with a brown backer. I typically use color paper or paint a 1/8" thick sheet if Baltic birch ply. It just depends on how thick it can be to fit in the frame. If you are making your own frame then make it to fit the thickness.

Neiko® 01407A Electronic Digital Caliper
I use my digital calipers all the time in my workshop. I use them to check the diameter of wooden dowels. I check the thickness of boards. Measure the depth of holes. Sometime you just need a bit more accuracy than a ruler can give.
These are not the most expensive calipers you can buy but I have found them to be accurate.
