OK, I got some brass whistles done finally. This is only the first wave. I'll have a few more available this weekend and then a lot more in about two weeks. These are slightly slimmer than the earlier whistles in order to lighten them up a little bit because they were quite heavy before. They are now basically the same diameter as the original whistles from years ago and more reasonable in weight. Thanks again for stopping by and the link is below:
Sold Out!
Yeah!! Thanks Peter.
ReplyDeleteNice! Can't wait to get mine Peter!
ReplyDeleteThank You Peter!!
ReplyDeleteExcellent Surprise!!
These are great additions to the whistle family!!
that was fast!
ReplyDeleteLooks like I better make more brass whistles. :D
ReplyDeleteHoly moly, that was quick. Thanks so much and I DO have more coming so no worries. :)
Waited all day, what can I say.
ReplyDeleteMy patience and determination really did pay.
Guess I have to start trying to figure out what rhymes with "larva".
Stayed vigilant all day, and STILL missed it! Wouldn't hurt so much, 'cept I work nights and miss most if not ALL general sales. What hurts more is that I'll see some in a few weeks on eBay for twice the price :-)
ReplyDeleteThose turned out nice. Is one enough?
ReplyDeleteMissed it!
ReplyDeleteYa know, I would love to have one of each, but if I were to pick one, it would be the brass one.
ReplyDelete"Reaching for the Brass ring" as it had been said.
I'm Jazzed!
Thanks for turning them out, Peter!
b.
nice, thanks peter
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed for a bumper crop of brass whistles!
ReplyDeleteDid I say a few weeks? there is already a rainbow up for auction on ePay. Y'know? I have better things to do than sit here with my finger on the reload button, only to lose out to someone who only wants to make a few bucks off of something he should treasure and use. The only general sales I have been able to catch were for the beads, and I have kept and used every one I've bought. guess I should work days. Later...
ReplyDeleteOuch! Missed :(
ReplyDeleteI hope I will be able to intercept the next wave of brass ones :/

Can you open bottles with that notch in the side?
ReplyDeleteNo!
ReplyDeleteManaged to score one of the Brass ones last night. Peter, how durable are the inserts in the whistle?? I'd like to carry one of these clipped to my vest while I'm in my kayak, so I'm curious if extended exposure to water will cause the insert to come out of the whistle?
ReplyDeleteThey are made to last forever and water will not affect the insert.
ReplyDeleteDid I just hear you say....WARRANTY??LOL
ReplyDeleteOf course! :)
ReplyDeleteHey Peter, no that's an idea. Maybe design the whistle outlet so that it can have a dual purpose to open bottles! Hehe
ReplyDeletePeter,
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of brass did you use for these?
I'm not sure of the exact grade and will have to find that out tomorrow when people are in.
ReplyDeleteif these had a bottle opener, then I'd have NO CHOICE but to buy one! haha
ReplyDeleteNice work on all of these Peter!
ReplyDeleteI have to say I think a whistle should just be left as a whistle :)
leave the opening to the other multi tools ;)
ohhhhh I know....just that a lightbulb went off when Michael mentioned it! It would really be too hard to resist then...but then again I always need a bottle opener! :)
ReplyDeleteIt is Alloy 360 half hard tempered brass.
ReplyDeleteWow..my Brass Whistle is in hand.
ReplyDeleteThis thing is beautiful!
Great photo to boot.
Well done!
My brass whistle arrived today and it is very nice. I think it is my favorite of all the whistles. Very nice feel and look to it. :D
ReplyDeleteHi Peter, as I anxiously await the arrival of my brass whistle, I was wondering if any tools were coming anytime soon?
ReplyDeleteI'm working on the Poltergeists to get them to heat treat. I have Lock Nut Monsters that I am assembling right now as well.
ReplyDeleteThe Poltergeist is a reworked Ghost, correct? I don't remember seeing a prototype. Did I miss it?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the direct ship on the brass whistle, Peter. Now I just have to stop staring at my key ring. :)
