It's a Gas, Baby!



Thought I'd put up a little teaser of an upcoming project...these will be coming in about 2 weeks or so. The Prybaby CG takes the basic Prybaby concept a little further, incorporating a 7/16" wrench at the bottle opening area and adding a 1/4" hex drive hole on the bottom right. The Compressed Gas or "CG" part comes in with the oxygen cylinder wrench, an excellent option for first responders or others in the medical field. Further function is introduced with two standard sized Acetylene tank wrenches for plumbers, welders and other tradesmen. The 58 Rockwell CPM 154 steel measuring nearly 3/16" thick ensures that these wrenches will last just about forever. A second variation featuring hex openings only is also coming at the same time.

Very cool, now I want one of those too. I hope you're making quite a few.

Excellent work and design! I love the thumb scallops. I think I'm gonna need one of these too!

Wow! you're cranking out some great variations on the prybaby this year!

It's a collector's worst nightmare, to have blown the budget so early in the year!

Thanks for the kind words folks! :)

These will be $40 for the plain version and $50 for the XL.

Love it! I look forward to the model with more everyday folk hex wrenches! (less gas cylendar specific) Wouls love to see a bike tool model with metric wrench sizes!! Way to keep innovating - keep this up and you will have to clone yourself to meet demand!

Any ideas if these will be available later in a Ti variation? Aw, who am I kidding? I'll hopefully end up with both...
