Mini Prybabies!

[xDANx]

Peter please inform me.

[heathah]

See this post (http://edcforums.com/index.php?topic=263.msg4985#msg4985). :)

[was_jlh]

Looks like next week* *:ready:

[LowWorm]

Is it next week yet? :-X

Looks like Peter will have more goodies besides the mini prybabies available... :gimme:

[Gadget Guy]

Mini Prybaby, how cool is that! I can't wait to see what Peter comes up with next...

[Peter Atwood]

John, you sly dog! You've got the proto..... ;D

[Gadget Guy]

well Peter, you caught me! I didn't want to spill the beans... I have the first one, the very first one and the only first one!!! I love it and i'm sure that anyone who buys one will love it as well. Mine is even more special because I have special steel! Enough about me, but did I mention that I have the first one? :lol

[Peter Atwood]

Yeah, but do you have the first DAMASCUS one? ;) Just kidding, there is no damascus one.....yet. ;D

[Gadget Guy]

It better be mine too or I will cry! :(

[The Closer]

peter, I thought that I had the first Mini-Damascus pry-baby??????? :-\

[micko]

peter, I thought that I had the first Mini-Damascus pry-baby??????? :-\

So did I :o

[Gadget Guy]

Here it is! Mini Prybaby #1. Sorry for the picture, but it's the best I could do...

Sweet!

[pipedreams]

Nice!

todd

[xDANx]

Damn it! >:( I just ordered a basic prybaby.

Gadget Guy,
I am enraged with envy.

Oh, and enjoy your Mini. :)

[LowWorm]

Mine! Mine! :ready:

Okay, it's next week officially. But no sight of these on Peter's site yet... :(

[Peter Atwood]

I'm still working on them. Slight design change actually, so we'll see how they turn out.

Yeah, I don't know about those earlier damascus Prybabies...weren't they all pretty much normal size? Maybe a touch smaller. Yeah, OK, I think Doug's is the only one that was a Mini size. You'll have to forgive me but there've been a lot of these things.... ;D :idiot2:

[The Closer]

Peter, you know I just like pulling your chain!!!! :boing:

[micko]

Peter, you know I just like pulling your chain!!!!* :boing:

And me ;D

Damasteel! Damasteel! Damasteel! :crazy2:

[Sunnie]

Peter,

That prototype Prybaby (Teenybaby?) looks fantastic. I love the brushed steel finish. What steel is that?? I hope they'll all look like that --* it just seems to work on the keyring in that manner.


EDIT> Then again, if it's going to be available in damascus maybe I'll wait a bit 8) ;) :) ;D

Sunnie

[Peter Atwood]

Sunnie, the minis will be a little different than the 3V one John has. I oversized the lanyard hole and moved it forward a bit in order to maintain the strength of the screwdriver tip. This also makes it easier to put a keyring through and it lessens the weight. You wouldn't think it would need to weigh less but I made these out of thicker stock than the regular prybabies if you can believe it. :) 3/16" S30v instead of the usual 5/32. They are quite chunky. ;D Will be bead blasted finish.

[Malcontent]

The Mini Prybabies are now available. Just got one ordered. :lol

[pipedreams]

Ordered mine! :boing:

todd

[rp42995]

Oh yes ordered mine ,Hey my first post great forum John* :D and I thought CPF drained my wallet

[LowWorm]

Mmm...saving my pennies just took on a whole new meaning. I'm glad you've added these to your stock, Peter, they seem like they'll be a popular choice for a long time to come. 8)

[Sunnie]

They look great. I'm going to order one next payday!

Sunnie

[Peter Atwood]

Thanks folks! :)

I will try to get a better comparison pic than that one. In that one they appear to be nearly the same size but in real life there seems to be more of a difference. Must be an angle thing...

[Deaths Head]

Peter, how about a titanium Area 51 version for me! I've got money!

[pipedreams]

Peter put up a new Mini pic.

todd

[LowWorm]

*sniff, sniff* It's so...so...beautiful! :'(

I need to beat up more people for their lunch money... :knuppel2:

[EDChris]

I am impressed with how great the Prybaby looks, as well as the other tools on the Atwood site. However, what do you guys use the Prybaby for? I have wracked my brain trying to think of things I could use a Prybaby for that my Leatherman P4 couldn't handle. Give me a reason to buy one of them!

[Peter Atwood]

Good question! :) Chris, see this thread for a partial list of possibilites: http://edcforums.com/index.php?topic=787.0

[EDChris]

I checked out your website and there was a huge list of things to use it for. #18: squishing ticks to death is what sold me on it. I live in a big city so never encounter ticks, but I think that is because they are all in hiding, waiting for their chance to get me. As soon as I get the Mini Prybaby, ticks will know and fear me.

As soon as I get it, I'll let you know how much I like it. (and I may have to buy more of your stuff too!)

Because you haven't got one and it is small and "precious"
If you can ask that question there is still hope for you ;D

[xDANx]

I am impressed with how great the Prybaby looks, as well as the other tools on the Atwood site. However, what do you guys use the Prybaby for?

Today I opened two Coronas and a paint can. (basic prybaby)

[Trashman]

What are the chances of, either, more shiny ones like Gadget Guy's, or some Ti models being made?

[JMV]

You need a reason to buy a mini prybaby? Use my reason... Because it's there, and I want one.

[The Closer]

Got my mini today and it friggin' ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :boing:

[pipedreams]

Got my mini today and it friggin' ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :boing:
Just got mine as well.* Doug is right...it friggin' ROCKS!!!!!* Somebody give me something to pry!

todd

[Malcontent]

Mine arrived also. Been playing with it ever since. This is the perfect edc size for my needs.

[Solstice]

Any chance to see the mini design in a plain finish Ti?

[Trashman]

Thanks guys, see what you just made me do. Just sent PP for a Mini. Like my keychain needs to be heavier than it already is...sheesh. Man, if it weren't for the internet, I can't imagine what I'd be spending my money on.

[The Closer]

The mini Prybaby use #24- prying the credit card out of your wallet so you can buy some more of Peter's stuff!!!!!!!!!!! :boing:

[pipedreams]

I'm using mine to scratch lotto tickets hoping to win enough to buy more gear!

That's the best reason I've seen so far! :D ;D

[pipedreams]

I've won $2 so far, and it's only cost me $6! What a bargain!

todd

[holst035]

Has anyone an comparsion picture of a basic and a mini, give me a reason. Peter; are you going to make them in Ti??

[pipedreams]

There is a compairison pic a few posts up.

todd

[holst035]

It don't look much smaller in this picture, I wonder if it's a big difference. I have a XL for a few weeks and it has been in my pocket almost every day to play with but I find it a bit big for my keyring so I'm afraid I want a mini!

Marthijn

[pipedreams]

You are right...the pic doesn't really show it, it's a big difference.

todd

Marthijn


Pipedreams is correct... It doesn't look too much smaller in a photo, but on your keychain it makes a big difference! If your not carrying it on your keychain, then go with a standard. I too use it to scratch lotto tickets and I have about as much luck as Pipedreams does! ;D

[Trashman]

I'll probably be using mine to scratch my a$$ while I look around blankly, wondering what happened to all my money.

[pipedreams]

LOL!!

todd

[Gadget Guy]

I got my new mini's today. One XL and one regular. I found a new use for the Prybaby. I use a Prybaby to lift the split ring to attach the other Prybaby with to a key ring....

BTW, they are awesome! Nice work Peter!! O0

[pipedreams]

How's the mini XL?

todd

[Gadget Guy]

Todd, it is a work of art! It is by far Peter's best work and it is now on my keychain replacing the damasteel Prybaby as my EDC. I also don't want to lose my damasteel Prybaby... :topic: I would highly recommend anyone making the purchase. I even like it better than the regular XL.

[Sunnie]

There's an XL version now? Great, just what my bank balance needs :)

Any pics?? How does it ride alongside keys, with the accentuated curved 'leverage' tip?

TIA,

Sunnie

[Bruiser]

I ordered my mini xl the other day. I can't wait for it to get here!

[Gadget Guy]

You will love it! It is a true work of art... O0 Peter!

[flashlight]

You could always hang the Mini Prybaby around your neck. :D

[Bruiser]

The mini-XL RULES! (sorry for the bad camera phone pic)

[BIG-TARGET]

OK guys!!! you win!!! You've broken my will. Next paycheck, I'm getting one!!! :coolsmiley:

[Bruiser]

Nice! You'll love it.

Let's see, Memorial Day weekend, 3 days off, too many beer bottles to count.......

Man, this thing's gonna get a bottle opening workout this weekend!

[Peter Atwood]

Hey nice lanyard. :)

I have to make more of the XLs, I sent my last one out yesterday and that was off my own keychain. Now even I need another one. ;D

[Bruiser]

Thanks Peter. I liked your lanyard (especially the knot, that was a new one to me* O0), but it still felt a little small in my hand. I just used a standard scaffold knot with about 9 or 10 turns, and found it fills my hand up nicely. Now I feel like the mini fills my whole hand.

I love this thing more and more everyday. :smitten: You came up with a great item here Peter. Now you have hurry up and make yourself some more!!

[Peter Atwood]

Wish I had time to do fancier lanyards but it's just not practical. I'm grateful to my buddy Brian for showing me the two strand Matthew Walker knot as it dresses up a plain lanyard a bit.

[Bruiser]

I used that 2 strand knot you did on your lanyards, and put them on all my paracord zipper pulls. They work great! I was using figure 8 stopper knots and small heaving knots on the ends before. The one you supply is much better for that. :king:

[TKC]

Those mini-prybabies are cool. Hmmmmmmmm........ :smitten: :smitten: :help: :idiot2:

[heathah]

These are on my "to buy" list but some of Peter's other stuff keeps jumping in the way. :lolhammer:

[Gadget Guy]

Those mini-prybabies are cool. Hmmmmmmmm........ :smitten: :smitten: :help: :idiot2:


They are great! O0

[The Closer]

They're awesome and they fit a lot easier on your keyring to boot!!!!!! Now we just need some in ti !!!!!!!! :D

[holst035]

Peter,

You have to have an answer to our outcry; miniprybaby in Ti!

No sneeking around anymore, you have to deliver!

[aosty]

I emailed him and he said no. :crazy2:

Com'on, Peter! :whip:

[Gadget Guy]

Alll in good time? It's 12:30am your time. You should be resting! ;D

GG

[xDANx]

I would order one now, but I am working on a Micro Card Knife collection. Also I am waiting for the Ti Mini.

[Gadget Guy]

I want a Ti Mini! ;D

[holst035]

Countdown!!

12.30
12.29

Dingdong postman, your Ti minipry XL Blue Voltage Mister!!

[aosty]

Patience! All in good time my friends, all in good time. :laugh:


:D :D :knuppel2:

[CaptainBob]

Just ordered a mini-prybaby and a bugout bar less than 5 min ago! Hooray for me! :cheers:

[xDANx]

I have a hard decision: Ti Keyton or Mini Prybaby? I eventually will buy both but which one first?

[pipedreams]

Get the Ti Keyton first. I think that the Mini is going to be a regular stock item. I'm not sure that the Ti Keyton will be.

todd

[Gadget Guy]

Go with a mini first. I think it is the best item that Peter has right now. It really depends on if your going to use it EDC or not? If you are looking for a collectible, then go for the Keyton. I use the mini on my keys and it is the perfect size for my everyday needs. What you really need is a Ti-Mini!! Come on Peter, please. ;D

GG

[Peter Atwood]

Ti is harder to come by in the thick sheets lately. I'll look into it but I have a feeling if I do get around to these it will be in a thinner stock.

[Sunnie]

If the full-size basic prybaby is anything to go by, a titanium mini-prybaby would definitely be the ultimate key chain tool. Exceptionally useful, strong, perfect size AND LIGHT :smitten: :smitten:. I'm going to wait and hope that this combination does become available.

By the way: an update one month on. Apart from my small pocket knife, the prybaby is the tool that I use more often than any other. The fact that it's one-piece (ie no fiddly bits to unfold), strong and dependable (ie not a toy or gimmick) and has all the most often basic regularly used basic functions makes it an excellent item. This item seems to get talked about more than any other on this forum, and there is good reason for that. :)

Sunnie

[xDANx]

Get the Ti Keyton first.* I think that the Mini is going to be a regular stock item.* I'm not sure that the Ti Keyton will be.

todd


Thanks Todd,
I will probably get the Ti Keyton in plain bead blast. I have both the basic and XL Prybaby see no reason in making them smaller(other than putting them on the keys which I do not like). Plus I love Titanium. Do you own a keyton?

[aosty]

I'll be willing to accept a thinner mini in ti... thini mini! :laugh:

[xDANx]

Then the Ti Mini would be almost weightless.

[pipedreams]

Glad to help, Dan. I had a Modified Keyton and just recently gifted it to a good friend. Great tool! I don't carry my PryBabies on my keys either.

todd

[aosty]

That's the point! :naughty:

[xDANx]

That's the point!* :naughty:


I know that would be so cool! I hope he decides to make them. I think we all demand too much of Peter though. :(

[aosty]

I think we all demand too much of Peter though. :(


Now that is a double-ended statement!! :lolhammer:

[flashlight]

Thini-Mini-Prybaby! :smitten: :D

[holst035]

Thiniminiprybaby XL!! If possible blue voltaged! O0

[Mahachippy]

I wonder if Peter would mind if I had my paycheck directly deposited to him every month so that he could just send me a new piece as he finishes them? :)

[scríbhneoir]

I wonder if Peter would mind if I had my paycheck directly deposited to him every month so that he could just send me a new piece as he finishes them?* :)


As an accounting major, do you think this method of direct deposit exercises wise fiduciary judgement? ;D

[Mahachippy]

Prolly not, but who needs a house and food...I will just absorb nutrients from my titanium collection and with enough prybabies, I am sure I could link them together for form an umbrella!! ;D

[knightrider]

Wanted to jump on this thread - Mini Prybabies are awesome!
Put this one on my keychain a couple weeks ago, it will never be removed.

[Deaths Head]

I asked for a Ti-Mini from Peter, and he's too busy to make a special order. We need to give him a little more incentive. Everyone interested needs to PM him!

[Deaths Head]

Everyone here who hasn't read the thread yet should see the "Leave Peter alone" thread. Give him a chance to catch-up. I think it is the only way to get what I want done. ;D

Thanks for posting the pic of the Mini! It looks great. There are not too many pics of the mini's around that show it on a keychain. That Mini is basically the size of a house key...amazing! Looking forward to getting mine.

[Gadget Guy]

I just can't seem to go back to the regular Prybaby after having the mini on my keychain. I have an damascus Prybaby that Peter made, but now I want a damascus mini XL Prybaby. I think that would be the ultimate Prybaby!

Thank you! Definitely the best pic of the mini prybaby I've seen. Shows the point of it being that small if it can ride along keys like that.

I really want to get one (two actually -- one for my keyring and an ornate one for round my neck!), but I'm hoping the *titanium scenario will become a reality. No pressure, Peter... :laugh:

Sunnie

[Sunnie]

timini, timini, timini! Almost a ready-made (very Pacific sounding) word in itself isn't it? Just waiting for a product to attach itself to with a nice proprietary copyright!

Sunnie

[xDANx]

I have a Mini XL on the way!!! >:D

[Deaths Head]

Is it titanium?

[xDANx]

No, but if he makes one I will buy it. :)

He will gladly take orders for stuff he has in stock. But he is flustered with custom orders.

[chris in mo]

I just received a Mini XLas a B-day gift. Fantastic design Peter! Thanks for making such cool gadgets!

[Deaths Head]

Greetings chris in mo. Welcome!

[Peter Atwood]

Thanks Chris and welcome to the EDC Forums! :)

[was_jlh]

Finally I've got one on the way.

[pipedreams]

Congrats! I bet you love it!

todd

[knightrider]

They're back....

I might need to pick up another. They are one of my favorite edc items. :)

[xDANx]

They are great on a keychain.

[Nighthawk]

Woo Hoo!!!!!!!! I got my mini Ti-Baby XL today.* Thank you to my wife for buying it for me for our anniversary. :-** Thanks also to Peter for making such a great tool and for getting it here quickly.* I will be able to use it before I go skydiving this weekend (another awesome anniversary present).* JENN IS THE BEST WIFE EVER

http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i281/edcnighthawk/100_1703.jpg

[xDANx]

Are you sure that is Ti? I thought Peter Atwood said he wasn't going to make mini Ti-Babies. Happy Anniversary!!!

[Peter Atwood]

It's regular size, not a mini. Happy anniversary! :)

[Nighthawk]

Oops :-[

[xDANx]

I want a Mini Ti Prybaby with Area 51 Grinds! Anybody else?

[Gadget Guy]

I'll take any Ti Mini that Peter will make. I think he knows we all want one, maybe he just doesn't want to get bombarded until he has a full chance to get caught up. It is on the top of my want list for sure...

I posted the same thing weeks ago. I even wrote Peter. But he was busy then and still busy now. But I agree with G2, I'll take it any way I can get it.

[xDANx]

IMO, Area 51 Prybabies are the coolest looking Atwood tools made.

This is what the Mini Ti Spannerbabies would look like (but smaller and a bigger hole):

http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e26/badmf13/112665782tispanners.jpg

[Deaths Head]

They are the coolest. I wouldn't even mind if they didn't have the anodizing. I just love all the angles of it.

[pipedreams]

I gotta say, I prefer the clean likes of the classic PryBaby.

I know what you mean. Are the grinds on the colourful ones above purely decorative or functional?

Sunnie

[Deaths Head]

I hope Peter will be able to make us some in the near future. Maybe a something with our Titaniac's Guild member numbers engraved in them.

[flashlight]

They serve to 'shock & awe' as you deftly use your Prybaby to surreptiously open & consume all the onlooker's beer! :laugh:

[xDANx]

The grinds provide extra grip.

[Deaths Head]

I would take either one as long as it's titanium.

[Sunnie]

Sunnie

[was_jlh]

My mini just arrived in the mail, this thing is the perfect size, if you don't have one, get one.

PS Peter is great to work with, good communication, quick shipment.

[Gadget Guy]

I agree, now if we can just get him to make them in titanium! ;D

GG

[Peter Atwood]

Well if only someone had invited me into their exclusive little Titaniac's Club I MIGHT have considered doing some. But since I don't seem to be welcome and haven't heard one word about dues, membership rules, meeting places or the unpleasant initiation rituals such as sitting for three hours on a block of ice, then I guess titanium Minis may never be forthcoming.... :P :lolhammer:

[xDANx]

The initiation is making Ti Mini Prybabies! :lolhammer:

[scríbhneoir]

Someone like you doesn't need an invitation.


Yeah, the hardest part of the initiation is to pick a number. :laugh:

[Michelle]

Those prybabies are cute! Now I need one

[CanDo]

Ok! I'm convinced, I need one!
Unfortunately I don't have the money, so it looks like I'll be making one :o (No, I do not expect to come near 1/10 the quality, but hopefully most of the functionality)

Now, on the prying end, the V notch is on the angled side. This looks nice, but wouldn't it make more sense for the V to be carved into the flat side? This would essentially give a fulcrum (the corner of the other side) and add leverage for pulling up nails or whatnot.....

Oh so many thoughts....

[xDANx]

I wouldn't expect to pry a nail over 3/4"

[CanDo]

Very true...
Well I need to give myself the false impression of progress, So I'm going to just start chopping away and worry about grinds later (maybe when I figure out how to make them)....

[Sunnie]

I expect you have Honorary Lifelong Membership, so any 'invite' would be an insult to a titanium sage such as yourself. Well, I think that was the way us mere mortals understood The Ancient Rules of Titaniac Guild Ettiquette... of course, if it displeases you, oh Master...!!! ;D

[dinoadventures]

i'm totally down for a mini ti prybaby, preferably with A51 grinds, but i'll take whatever i can get.

I know this may sound weird, but i have been checking this thread over 5 times a day to see if the Ti Mini Prybabies would come out. :idiot2:

Then the weirder the better. The more attention we give to Peter about the Ti Mini Prybabies, hopefully the better the chance we get our hands on one. :)

[Gadget Guy]

Peter is probably making them right now and waiting until he has enough stock for everyone. He can't put us off forever! :laugh: He will probably sell out in a day though...

GG

[dinoadventures]

A day if he tells this board first. If word gets around, I say six hours if the announcement is made mid-day.

We have 28 members so far in the TiG. So he can make at least that many for sure.

[Chief-Yeah]

Hey Dh
Just want to be sure I'm on that list for the mini prybaby's

[Gadget Guy]

Since when is DH in charge of that list? :lolhammer: If he has a better in with Peter, then he better prove it... :poke:

No way, I am just bunching myself on a list that Peter is on and hopefully, that will get me a Ti Mini in my pocket. Someone else should be in charge. ;D

If we keep this up, Peter will start making his stuff in China to speed up production. ;D Boy, I sure hope that never happens! >:(

HAZ, the rules have changed slightly. Visit the TiG thread to see. :)

Just received a mail from Peter to say he's got some 'ordinary' mini XL's in stock - so I've ordered 1 :D (of course) - with tiger stripes to match my bugout blade - still want a purty Ti one tho'.

[jggonzalez]

I've got three MiniXLs on the way. My four year-old daughter has already claimed one.

Seems like Peter has been avoiding this thread. :laugh:

Peter, i would like a left handed Ti Mini Prybaby :smitten:, when they are available :P

[knightrider]

Mini Prybabies rule! That is all....

Ti is cool stuff, but I love S30v, has a nice smell and look to the steel.
The Ti Guild wants to have me erased now... no... I do like Ti... I just don't have any yet... please don't kill me... :yikes:

[Solstice]

IMHO, a Ti is a much more appropriate material for a keychain tool due to it's excellent strength/weight ratio and corrosion resistance. While S30V is formulated to hold an edge, I don't see the point in using it for a prying/bottle popping tool. With the steel, it will be heavier, susceptable to rust (which by many accounts does occur fairly often with this steel) and because of the extreme hardness has the possiblilty of chipping (which I could see happening with a pry tool).

Alright, I'll admit it, the TiG has me assimilated ;). Resistance is futile. I'm sure the steel tools are beauties, but for the above reasons I really do think Ti makes sense. If were to go with a steel version, I'd rather have something a bit springier, more corrosion resistant and less expensive. Just because S30V is the "it" steel for knives at the moment doesn't mean it needs to be used to build a toaster, etc.

Just a small fact though for all you Ti lovers out there like myself. Pound for pound, titanium is about twice as strong as steel. But did you know for the same volume of space that both materials take up steel is stronger? Just a little bit of trivia.

[Solstice]

Yeah, two identical form-factor items made from Ti or steel, the steel will be stronger, however the Ti will be almost as strong and FAR lighter. Depends on an individual's needs, but I like my EDC items to be as light as possible- that way I can carry more of them ;).

[Gadget Guy]

Weight is why I am hoping that Peter make the Ti mini soon. I like my keys as light as possible. Can you imagine how light the Ti mini will be? I don't want to rush you Peter, but... :-X

I messed up my Prybaby...:(

I had a neat Strider stiped one w/spanner I bought from xdanx and...while it works very well at prying apart stubborn computer cases, it scratched it up pretty good. And now, I am sad. :(

I know they're meant to be used. It just makes me not want to use my Ti one now...except for bottle opening. :)

Ti scratches very easily. When I get a Ti one, I will opt for a plain finish because a few rubs with a Scotch Brite can polish of all the light scuffs.

I plan to get a fancy titanium keyton as a "toy" and carry a steel prybaby for actual use.

[Gadget Guy]

Are you calling your titanium Keyton a toy? >:( ;D You are out of the TIG! :laugh:

[jggonzalez]

Does this mean I have to submit pics of me using it for readmission? :lolhammer:

Is he even in. I don't see a member number posted. :laugh:
I want a Ti Keyton, but I am holding out for a Ti Mini. Just a few more pages of posts, and we can email this to Peter! :jester:

How do I get a number? I'm starting to get into titanium stuff. I've got two ti keytons on order with Peter, a titanium zipper pull from Tom Anderson, and a titanium kubotan/pen from Rick Hinderer.

Go the the thread and make a post and I'll let you in. Basically pick a number between 1-100 that is still available. You will see the list on the first post of the thread. Look up "Titaniacs Guild". Also, don't forget to buy a T-shirt. We need at least 50 pieces to be bought and we are only up to 30.

Me too! :highfive:
