Wobble Wedges
Indispensable.
Especially if you're a perfectionist about your TV and assorted electronica (satellite and cable boxes, speakers, subwoofer, AV control box, DVD player, ad infinitum) being perfectly level.
You could use variably thick small Post-It note pads, but then you're stuck with the colors of the pad edges peeping out at you.
Wobble wedges measure 1-7/8"L x 1-1/8"W.
The thick (and flat) end is 1/4"W and it tapers down to about 1/64" at the business end.
It's made of translucent plastic with small ribs running across it.
There's a hole to let you wear one as a readymade necklace or carry it on your keychain.
They're called Wobble Wedges because they "Fix anything that wobbles" but I've yet to use them for their intended purpose.
A nice review (and comments) over at Kevin Kelly's Cool Tools earlier this year nicely details the anti-wobble function.
6 for $3.49.
