Plain Perfies

Alrighty then. I have some plain unanodized titanium Perforated Prybabies available today. These have a stonewashed finish. They are $90 plus shipping.

I still have more pieces to process from the batch so there will be more waves beyond this one. I'll probably do some green ones next.

Thanks for stopping by folks, much appreciated!

These are gone for now but there are more on the way, thanks!

Rainbow Perfbabies

Hi Everyone,

OK, I have the first wave of the ti Perfbabies done. They are slow going to finish them so the quantity is limited, hence I am keeping it at one per customer please. I will be having several waves of these in various colors over the next few days though so there will be several chances to get one.

For my international customers: This is an expensive item so I am giving you a choice of Priority Mail International shipping for $13 but there is no tracking and no insurance possible with this method of shipping. You may choose Priority to save a few bucks and it's no problem, but realize there is no recourse if the package is lost. I also will offer Express Mail International for $28 which does offer tracking and insurance so I leave it up to you. Titanium Perfbabies are $90 each plus shipping.

Sold Out! Thank you! More coming very soon.

What's the Word?

In case you all were wondering what is next...

I sent out the titanium Perforated Prybabies to the tumblers earlier this week. For those unfamiliar with this tool it is a titanium version of the swiss cheese Prybabies that I made a few years ago. The old batch was made in steel. These titanium ones are the thickest Prybabies I have ever done at 3/16 thick and they look very similar to the original design although I did tweak the holes a little. The holes make the Perfies incredibly light at only 1/2 oz each. Speaking of holes, there are 37 per piece and both sides had to be countersunk so they were quite a bit of work besides the usual grinding and milling steps. Due to the extra work involved, the material costs and the waterjet costs these will come in at $90 each plus shipping. I will have them finished and available by the end of next week. As soon as I get them back from the tumblers I will snap a few pictures. I'll be doing a variety of colors.

Other projects: I'm working on some steel G3 Prybabies as well and should have them going in about 2-3 weeks. The next batch of WingNuts will follow that. Another batch of BigShots has been started and I will have regular ones with knurling and also some of the fancier DotShots with knurling. Also in the works is another small batch of Chiggers. And I will be revisiting the original Atwrench design in late November or early December but this time with a metric wrench set, the largest of which will be 15mm.

These are also some more Sign Up Sales coming with a variety of odds and ends in between the larger releases.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Thanks,

Peter

Paypal Gift Option

OK, I was originally concerned about the inability to create mailing lables if someone sent me funds via the recently added "gift" option in Paypal. That problem was solved when I learned about a different way to create the labels. However, I talked to my accountant and it seems that I should not accept payments via the gift option because it could be construed by Paypal as a violation of service terms. So, if anyone sends me a payment with the gift option I will be refunding it and contacting them to resend the payment as "goods". It might be anal but I want to stay out of trouble.

Titanium Ring Tools

Last winter I offered some titanium Ring Tools. I have a few more Ring Tools available right now, anodized green. These are made of 3/16" thick titanium and the opening is equal to a standard size 12 ring so will fit onto small to medium sized fingers. There is a 1/4" hex opening on the tool and an O ring and screwdriver bit are included. These run $35 each plus shipping. I do have a few that are blue and some rose gold anodized as well.

Green ones are gone. Thanks!


Stonewashed Original Minis

Happy Wednesday!

I have just two dozen of these Original Mini Prybabies available in stonewashed finish. There are a few more coming but they will be bead blasted. Anyway, because there are only a handful I'm limiting it to one per customer please. They are $45 plus shipping.

Sold Out! Thank you folks.

Got the Atwood Itch?

Well, maybe the Atwood Chigger™ will help you scratch it. :D

The simple design of this cute little tool pays homage to the classic key ring screwdriver/pry tools of the past but adds a bottle opener and 5/16" wrench. The large 3/4" hex opening makes it easy to slip onto a keyring and helps provide grip. The Chigger™ is made of 5/32" thick CPM S30v steel, is 2.25" long and features a stone washed finish. These are $45 plus shipping.

Thanks folks, these are gone for now! I very much appreciate it.

Blasted Mini XLs

Hi Folks,

After a couple of days of laying around and sleeping I seem to be feeling a little better. So it's time for a sale.

I have the remaining Mini+ Prybaby XLs ready to go. These are bead blasted. I don't have a whole lot of them so I'm going to keep it to one per person so that some of the folks who missed the stonewashed release get a chance at them.

Sold out, thank you once again folks!

No Sale Today

Hi folks.

Paypal is doing something weird and for some reason I'm not able to view any transactions from today in my transactions list. So I will not be able to do a sale today until they get it straightened out. I'm able to accept payments and the balance is correct but no listing comes up with my transactions. Very odd. They have been doing some maintenance recently and obviously something is messed up.

I am going to try to get to some bead blasting today. Hopefully will get to the rest of the minis and also some FunnyBones in the next day or so. Thanks for your patience!

Mini Prybabies®

OK, I have some Minis ready to go finally. This is the first wave only. I have several wave's worth of these coming over the next few days with several different flavors. This group is the largest and I'm calling it the Mini Plus Prybaby® to distinguish it from the Original Mini Prybaby®. The only difference between the two designs is the 1/4" hex in the body and also the Mini Plus is slightly lighter stock at 1/8" thick. These are all S30v steel.

A word on the tumbling. These have a nice satin stonewashed finish but are not quite as shiny as my recent batches of tools. Also, everything that came back from this tumble has some remnants of bronze heat coloring on the edges and inside surfaces and in the name stamps. This is the result of the tempering oven cycles and usually I don't see this. Not quite sure what they did differently but I want to make it plain up front so that folks don't email me thinking there is rust on any of these pieces. It's NOT rust, just heat coloring.

I will also be doing a portion of these with a bead blasted finish just like the original Minis. So more of them will be coming as I get them done. The straight Mini Plus group with stonewashed finish is what I have done right now so they are up first. XLs will be coming probably tomorrow afternoon. I did not get to any lefties yet. Thanks for checking in folks! :)

Mini Plus Prybabies® are $45 each plus shipping. Link is here:

Sold Out for now, more tomorrow. Thank you!
