Tool over-run: huge tags and cork paddles

[David Patchen]

I've made some cool tools lately and have had extra material left over so I thought I'd make some available to the folks on this board.

I have one extra set of these massive tags. They are 24" in total length, 1.5 inches wide and I'm told 10 gauge stainless steel but someone else told me that they're thicker. I think they're about 3mm thick. I put 10" handles on mine, but the handles aren't on the extra set, so it's whatever length handles you'd like. $200 for the pair. Work great on huge murrine and cane pickups.

Dunno why the photo of the tags won't show. Click the link and you'll see them in all their shiny glory.

Another tool I made that I have an extra of is a set of enormous cork paddles. These are 12" long and 9" wide and great for flattening big stuff. They flame when breaking them in, but then they're great. Cork is about 1.5" thick and should last for years (my last pair did almost 3 years and I flatten everything). $120+ shipping for the pair.

PM me if you're interested.
