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, thanks for stopping by today. :)
Sold Out! Thanks so much. :)

Bead Blasted MetWrenches
Hi Folks,
Hope you had a great weekend! It was good here. I didn't think about working for 4-5 days so it was nice to have a few days completely off. 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, thanks!

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. I had to trash a few of the rulers earlier this year because they missed a mark.
But, they used the files for the old rulers which do not have the end marks that we specifically created for the ABC. The end marks should be spaced one increment over on either end and they are the same length as the 1 and 2 hashmarks. Same thing on the reverse of the tool which is metric. However, they say that they can run them through again and add the marks so we'll see...this sample is bead blasted but I'm hoping most of them would end up stonewashed. Otherwise, it's a nice tool. :)
From the insert card:
The Atwood Business Card combines 21 wrench functions in a single wallet sized 420 stainless steel card tool. Features include six SAE sizes: ¼, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, ½, 9/16. Metric sizes include 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16mm in the center set and 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15mm in the righthand set. ¼ and 5/16 nut driver openings and 5/16 bottle opener are included. Two rulers complete the package.

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. Because there's a small number I'll keep it at one per customer and they will run $65 plus shipping. As always, thanks for stopping by and hope everyone is having a relaxing weekend.
Sold Out, thank you!

MetWrench
Hi folks,
I have half the batch of MetWrenches done and ready to go. These are 5/32" thick S30v steel and feature Metric wrench sizes 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15mm. Also a heavy duty prytip/screwdriver and a bottle opener with distinctive M shape to denote that it is a Metric tool. There are no lefties, no titanium pieces, no stamped pieces and no glow dots on any of these. Pretty much a straight ahead batch this time.
Metwrenches are $60 each plus shipping. Thanks for taking time to stop by and hope your holidays are pleasant so far.

SlotShots
Good Morning folks. Sorry for the delay there...I had a bunch of family holiday related preparations and events to attend to. 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. They are sized to accept the standard colored self lighting 1.5 x 5mm gas glow tubes that many of guys enjoy. I am not supplying the tubes, you will have to procure and install them yourselves if you want these. Alternatively, the slots could be filled with epoxy and glow powder mixture if you don't want to mess with the tubes or left alone, they look great left open too. The best current tube source is Bart on the Candlepowerforums Marketplace:

The SlotShots are $60 plus shipping.

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. They cost me a bit more to make so will be priced accordingly.
All Gone, thank you!

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 around the end of next week.
The Atwood Business Cards are coming along well and should be ready to send to the laser engravers by the end of this week for the rulers to be applied. I'm not sure what the turn around time will be on those but hopefully it is about one week.
I have another SUSale coming in a day or two as well.

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 have only nine of these little knives available and that is the end of the batch of them. The price will be $250 plus $15 shipping in the US or $30 for Express Mail International. The Sign Up Sale will run until 9PM Eastern Time tonight, December 3, 2009. Remember, one entry per person please, duplicates will be discarded before the drawing. As always, thanks for stopping by!
