50 Caliber Bottle Opener

[rd_ab_penman]

At last weekends Torrington Gin Show a customer aked me if I could make him a 50 cal bottle open to go along with the 50 cal pen he bought.
So after doing some research, got out my good quality metal files, installed a bi-metal band saw blade and this is what I came up with.
I think these will be great sellers at the upcoming gun shows.

I made a bunch of them for my last Vietnam vets reunion in May. All I used was 2 files, one triangle and one chain saw file. After the first ones, I thought I was nuts, but after seeing them finished, I went to work and could finish about 2 or 3 per hour.

They were a hit, some of the guys went and bought bottle beer just so they could use them right away. Within a few weeks after the reunion I getting several requests for more of them a week. Finally had to say no, it was a fun run, but enough of the filing and back to the lathe was better.
