Bottle / Can Openers

[socdad]

Bottle / Can Openers from Craig (clapiana) made from Osage Orange & Curly Maple. I used half of a ¾ copper tube coupling as a ferrule … Should work well on my Sam Adams Summer Ale …:biggrin:

nice, I'm anxious to get mine.

Looks nice, I think the ferrule is probably a good idea.

those came out really slick...i love the curly maple

i wanted to ask you if you spray the copper pipe so it doesnt tarnish?

I used Renaissance wax on the copper, not sure it will help much …

 

[PaulDoug]

The Ren wax will wear off with use, but, it will help. Speaking of which, we have very have water and even with a water softener (which never seem to work as good a advertised) our facets get water spots. I started using Ren. wax on them, put it on every couple of weeks and it really keeps them nice.

i love ren wax on my table saw's cast iron. i was thinking maybe a shot of clear spray paint might work in that if any sam splashes out when popping a top you dont want to see green on those beauties
