For real this time, Cronies in the next few months!
on: October 25, 2009, 04:37:10 PM
Hey guys!

Great news!!!! I finally landed myself a real full time job in my field (Mechanical/Manufacturing Engineering) and will have a serious flow of cash into my bank account.  I will also be moving into a house where I can set up my full shop.  What this means to you guys is that I will most probably have the time/money to FINALLY get my crony produced.  I am going to try several different versions, and like I posted earlier might try a couple changes or adding in a gut hook, but I'm just trying to gauge curiosity or interest in the initial run as it stood with the passaround prototypes.  Thanks alot guys!

If the first one off the line does not have my name on it, I will consider this a huge slap in the face to the community here that went to so much effort to help you develop it.

I love being able to pull rank and make people feel guilty!  :D

I am not a big fan of these type of devices, but if you are going to engrave Multitool.org on it, then count me in as a definite.

I put myself down for a Probably Yes. It'll depend on the final specs/design and the cost, but as it stands now I am VERY interested. I'd personally rather not have the mag glass, but no biggie either way. Looks like a great tool. My biggest concern is that I'd want the wrench to be more of an aligator/universal design than a graduated one. I suppose you may get less strength/grip from the alligator, but I'd rather it not be so limited in what I can use it on. I'd actually rather replace the pry bar deal with another wrench (SAE/metric) but that's just me. Overall I think it really does look like a great and well thought out device and wouldn't at all mind owning one. (oh, and one more "/" just for good measure)
