More This Weekend

I've got to do some caretaker stuff this morning and into the afternoon so probably won't get a chance to finish any more pieces today. Hopefully will get some glow dots done for tomorrow though. I also need to cut more cards and lanyards so that takes a bit of time as well. But rest assured, more Atwrenches and Nibbles will be getting done for this weekend. Thanks for your patience folks! I have discovered that it is tough to juggle all my current responsibilities at the moment but pretty soon things should be back to normal and it will be full steam ahead as usual.

So What's Up?

Glad you asked... :) This is an in between time for batches but there is an incredible amount of stuff on deck.

I sent a rather large batch of tools to heat treat earlier this week. We should be seeing them back in just about two weeks. Most of the batch is Atwrenches and the majority of those are with Tiki grinds. Some will have glow dots. All of the group with Tiki grinds will have V notches! There are also a couple dozen plain basic ones like the very first group. In addition, there were several dozen Nibbles and a few odds and ends as well.

I am currently working on a batch of titanium FunnyBones and hope to get those ready for tumbling and finishing in a day or two. Once sent off to the tumbler it should be about a week to get them back and do the final finishing, anodizing, etc. I'm also going to try to slip in a few other titanium items at the same time including some more of the flat ti Gasbabies.

Some other goodies are coming too. I am experimenting with some new designs and I think that all in all it's shaping up to be a VERY interesting summer. Stay tuned for more info in just a few short days.

Next week I have an important family matter to attend to. I may be slow to answer emails from Tuesday through the end of the week. But rest assured that June is going to be an extremely busy month at Atwood Knife and Tool. :)
