Lock Nut Monsters!

Howdy Folks! Welcome to the weekend. :)

The first tool of the Creature Series, The Lock Nut Monster tool features offset multi-wrench jaws with six SAE wrench sizes, 1/4-9/16, my captive bit system with #1 phillips bit, bottle opener, screwdriver/prytip and lanyard hole which doubles as an oxygen wrench. The gnarly slightly oxidized raw bar finish is appropriate for a creature from the murky depths. ;)

These are $70 plus shipping. I have a first wave for tonight then I'll have a second wave in a day or two when I get them together. It takes a while to put the O-rings on, tie the lanyards and prepare the packaging. ;)

Yo, International Customers: This is a fairly hefty tool and so I am nervous about shipping via Priority International mail. If you order, you are ordering at your own risk as I will not replace tools that disappear in transit. If you order two or more tools then I will automatically go to Express Mail shipping which at least offers real tracking and insurance but of course is twice as expensive.

First wave is gone but more are coming. Thank you! :)

Cool design Peter, but the thing that caught my eye was the creature SERIES!? How many of these guys are in the hopper?? Now that's exciting.

Peter Atwood said...

Aha! The million dollar question. :D

I have something in the works called the DoubleHeader which is #2 in the Series. There may be more but I have not conceived them yet. :p
