Titanium Atwrenches

Good Morning,I have a tiny batch of Titanium Atwrenches available. These have been stamped with my antique diemaker stamps and are all different. And they are anodized all different colors as well. There are only a dozen of these so it will be one per customer and the price is $70 plus shipping. To keep it simple I'll just pick one unless you have a strong preference which can be indicated by email or comments field in the shopping cart. As always,...

Bead Blasted MetWrenches

Anyway, I have a couple of things I want to get done before the end of the year...I have a small batch of bead blasted Metwrenches available. Less than twenty pieces so I'll make it one per customer and the price is $60 plus shipping.Sold Out, than...

No ABCards this Week

The Atwood Business Cards encountered a glitch so will not be ready this week. Hopefully we'll get them squared away for next year.As you can see the dingdongs left off the beginning and the end marks on the ruler scale. I purposely made a ruler scale that was supposed to be centered in the space on this tool. That way if the machine marked it a little to the left or right then it would not matter if it lined up with the end of the ruler or not....

MetWrench with Face Grinds

Good Morning,Looks like we dodged the bullet as far as the big snow storm is concerned. We didn't even get a dusting! I'm grateful because I was dreading all the cleanup and we already have lots of snow on the ground with much more to come no doubt. Best of luck digging out to the folks south of here though.Anyway, I have two dozen MetWrenches available with extra grip Face Grinds. These are pretty cool looking.

Finally got the SlotShot portion of this BigShot batch finished.These have the same diamond knurl on them but feature three slots milled into the top ring.

Diamond Knurl BigShots

Good Morning Folks,OK, I have some BigShots available with diamond knurling. These are really beautiful and I'm kicking myself that I didn't do some with diamond knurling before. Anyway, I didn't make a whole lot of them this time around but I'll certainly keep this style in mind for any future batches. Diamond Knurl BigShots are $55 plus shipping.I have not yet finished the SlotShot version but hope to work on them later today for release tomorrow....

Update for December

Lots of stuff in the works. I'll be finishing up the next batch of BigShots today. These have a heavy diamond knurl on them. They look and feel terrific. A portion of the batch are SlotShots and feature 3 milled slots in the top knurling ring that are sized to accept 1.5 x 5mm self lighting gas tubes. I will not be filling these slots but users can obtain their own tubes if desired and epoxy them in. There are sources on Candlepowerforums for the tubes. Yesterday I sent out the Metric Atwrenches to be heat treated. We should see those completed...

Talonite MSOPThing SUS

Hi Folks,I finally got around to making some sheaths and finishing up these talonite MSOPThings that have been sitting on the shelf for the past two years. For those that aren't familiar with talonite it is an exotic cobalt based alloy that is completely salt water resistant. It is rare, expensive and a pain to work with. All of these tools have Glowcord handle wrappings and feature my antique satin finish, kydex sheath and bead chain. Anyway, I...

G3 Prybabies

Hi Folks,I just got a batch of steel G3 Prybabies back from heat treat yesterday. These have the nice semi shiny Stone Aged™ finish on them for a cool instant antique look. The finish feels buttery smooth in the hand and resists scratching very well. Also, this batch is slightly thicker than the previous ones so the pieces are extra beefy. Improvements to this batch include larger teeth for better grip. Wrench sizes include 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16,...

What's the Word?

In case you all were wondering what is next...I sent out the titanium Perforated Prybabies to the tumblers earlier this week. For those unfamiliar with this tool it is a titanium version of the swiss cheese Prybabies that I made a few years ago. The old batch was made in steel. These titanium ones are the thickest Prybabies I have ever done at 3/16 thick and they look very similar to the original design although I did tweak the holes a little. The holes make the Perfies incredibly light at only 1/2 oz each. Speaking of holes, there are 37 per piece...

Paypal Gift Option

OK, I was originally concerned about the inability to create mailing lables if someone sent me funds via the recently added "gift" option in Paypal. That problem was solved when I learned about a different way to create the labels. However, I talked to my accountant and it seems that I should not accept payments via the gift option because it could be construed by Paypal as a violation of service terms. So, if anyone sends me a payment with the gift option I will be refunding it and contacting them to resend the payment as "goods". It might be...

Well, maybe the Atwood Chigger™ will help you scratch it. :D The simple design of this cute little tool pays homage to the classic key ring screwdriver/pry tools of the past but adds a bottle opener and 5/16" wrench.

So I will not be able to do a sale today until they get it straightened out. I'm able to accept payments and the balance is correct but no listing comes up with my transactions. Very odd. They have been doing some maintenance recently and obviously something is messed up.I am going to try to get to some bead blasting today.

The only difference between the two designs is the 1/4" hex in the body and also the Mini Plus is slightly lighter stock at 1/8" thick. These are all S30v steel.A...
