Tangs for the A5 hammer were simply stainless strips, cut to length, thn pounded over in a vice to get the right angle.

Deuce, using a nail instead of making a couple tangs is Mexican, but works good in a pinche...

Haha!
How many names have we been called this week?
Rookie, Loser, lightweight, pervert, dumbass and bitch.
Not a bad run.
Actually, I do know that a few folks are rookies to ebay.

Hey Werner -- judging by the extraordinary bidding on those items,
and the stratospheric prices they fetched, Hardman Knott Productions
felt that your money-animation was in dire need of a speed adjustment:

That's cool! Sounds like your trying to go non-profit, is that true?

I don't know that yet that that would be the formal organziation form at this point - but the discussions so far have had the intent not be to accrue profits. Past giving John a bit of each hammer the rest would get donated...

Thank you everyone for making the big wall gear auction a big success. Hope everyone finds the gear useful or at least, (folks like Marty the collector) something worth pointing the eyeballs at.
Most of the orders have been shipped, so they should come this week (apologies for the two unshipped orders of folks I don't know personally--still awaiting payment confirmation, will ship ASAP mid April when I return from the GC.)
Stay tuned later in April for a bunch of portaledges, haulbags, a few more hardware lots, and some funky prototype and production soft goods.
Cheers
JM

Ahh haha! WBraun Mar 23, 2005 - 06:10pm PT
I wonder if he still has the original die for that hammer head?
Looks like we can blame Werner for nudging the ball into motion, but it certainly got grabbed and ran with. 6 years in the making to get the D5 hammers out. Mine are "in the mail" today, as they say.
Thank you all so much!

Ha, this is when the D5 project all started, during Deuce's ebay auctions. I scored a bunch of the spare pins back then most of which now all reside at Beacon Rock as replacements pins after doing pin and anchor maintenance on the place back in 2005-7.
