The Pill Crusher is home-made.* Makes for a great tool and a SD item as well.* I might be getting some more of the Ti round bar soon.* I'll post it in B/S/T.

I forgot to mention that the tubular sliders on the paracord are Ti, too.

You can Pm if you like or just let us know.

M.Tex,

I will be ordering another batch of paracord, Spro split rings, and Berkeley stainless steel clips early next month. I can make you a lanyard for the whistle.

The only thing that I cannot seem to locate is Ti tubing to use as sliders on the lanyard like on my setup. I can use aluminum tubing as well since they can be found readily in my area.

PM me so I don't forget.

M.TEX

06-23-2006, 06:29 PM

Ok I will PM you after the 4th july . What size of TI Tubing do you use ?
Can it be replaced later ? Ummm I think I should wait. Ooh and could you tell
How many Bucks we are talking here ?

From the pics, it kind of looks like the Atwood whistle has some clear shrink tubing on it.?... If so--pretty clever

I've checked and can't seem to find titanium versions of those SS gate clips (about 20mm, same size as used on Photon Microlights). Does anyone know of a source ?? I would like to reeplace my SS with Ti if possible.

Thanks, Cliff

Where did you pick up those triangle plier-crimp things you sent me? I doubted you about them before, but the ones you sent me have served me very well.

Thanks again!

Wow, nice setup!
You ever tell anyone that you're carrying around $50 in just shackle,clips, & swivels? (just to get a reaction of course) ;D

I do hope OdBm believes that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. :)

My keychain carry now includes: A paracord lanyard with ti ferrules, atwood whistle, Spro power rings and heavy swivels, berkeley clips and a ti pillcrusher!

riprater,
Yes, that is shrink tubing. It keeps the whistle from beating up on its companions.

Badgerboy,
I don't think gate clips are made that small. I have done an extensive search without luck.

dinoadventures,
I bought the triangle rings from worthco (http://www.worthco.com/rings/drings.html).

GiveMeLight,
A few people outside of this BB have asked. They were especially interested in the Snap Shackle.

Bobby D,
Glad you like the setup. Mine should last many years or when I decide to modify it with something better or nicer. ;D

Well waggya know? Berkley Point don't ship to the UK!!

Just my luck......anyone know of a UK distributor for these mini clips?

Well waggya know? Berkley Point don't ship to the UK!!*

Sir Sean, check again! Go to International Orders at the bottom of their pages. $25 minimum order, with a maximum 4lb limit (lots!) Shipping is usually about $10.

I'm currently awaiting my second order from them. They're a little slow to get it in the post, but are very helpful.

Bob.
