There's no right or wrong way* to make a 3D model of something, but often you'll find that whatever software you're using can't do it the way you first thought - there's one method that just seems easier than all the others.You need to get into curves and lofts fit the kayak project. * but some methods are definitely better than others
Live and learn, right?
Well, I didn't add more hex cutouts or fancy peanuts, but I did add a spark plug gapper and a lanyard hole- does that count?I also started thinking of a tactical black version to see if I could charge more for it.I wonder if I should do a Kickstarter campaign for it.... could be fun to see what happens....

A fishing lure with a bottle opener..... sounds interesting! Def
Whoa, whoa, whoa people... we nearly missed something EPIC.Quote from: Grant Lamontagne on March 24, 2016, 02:07:54 AMA fishing lure with a bottle opener..... sounds interesting! DefCombining the two greatest activities of all time, They'd sell like hot cakes.
Not crazy about the outside sharp-pointy blades... still better than the Metperial though
(Image removed from quote.)What's the sharpened part next to the 1/4" hex cutout for, again? I think you need to make the flat SD a little longer than the can opener, Boss, and change the can opener's shape a bit to make it more pocket friendly. Alternatively, you could provide a good pouch for the tool to be kept in. Not a bad design overall.
That was my first thought. I was going to put it on the end of the can opener but then two things occurred to me :1- it would get in the way of the screwdriver, meaning whenever you tried to loosen or tighten a screw you would also be drawing a ring around said screw.2- No one actually uses these to break windows, and like most of the multitools on the market with glass breaking tips, it is probably going to be useless anyway because there isn't enough mass behind it. :-PDef

I may get rid of it entirely but I'll leave it for now as it is one more function... and that's what these are all about, right? Ramming as many functions into a tool, whether they are functional or not? Def
