It's Hot!

This heat might make the bugs fly faster but it just makes me slower. Highs near 100 for the past two days and the air is absolutely still. Pretty miserable and not likely to be significantly cooler for several more days...of course this is summertime so I should stop whining. :)

The good news is though that I am getting the new DoubleHeader wrenches underway. These are a Metric double ended pocket wrench tool with odd number jaws on one end and even number jaws on the other. Made of CPM 3V so they will be crazy strong. Teaser pics coming very soon. I am making a relatively large number of these and so there should be plenty to go around.

The little Dace knife is coming along but very slowly. I need to finish up the pry tip grinds this week and they will be ready to go to my friends for the blade grinds. I'm having these CNC V ground. Hoping they can get to this in the next week or two but they are currently closed for a vacation week and may extend shutdown for a second week so it's touch and go.

A second small knife, the Helgramite, is actually nearly done. I need to make sheaths for them and sharpen them. I'm hoping to have the majority of sheaths made for me but the sheathmaker I want to use for this project is off for the week. So not sure how long it's going to take. I'll trickle a few out when the weather moderates and I can run the exhaust fan a little without sucking the cool air out of the house.

Another project in the wings is a tiny pocket prybar called the Larva. This one will be made in raw bar S30v if I can sort through and find a suitable sheet. Cute little thing!

I have another couple of rounds Lanslides that I need to finish up. One design is the 3 Dot pattern and then I have a few with trit slots as well.

So, lots of stuff is coming but it will be a little slow for a week or two. ;) Hope everyone is having a great summer so far!
