Popular Post preprius Posted June 13, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 (edited) This is similar to the bottle opener a few weeks ago. I decided that all bottle / lid openers did not have to be turned handles. Niles bottles stoppers sells this lid can opener. It looked liked it could save some cat lady's finger nails. Ok my wifes nails. So I hand drew some cat face on paper and and put it on some really hard dense wood Purple heart. I tapped the wood. Then I scroll sawed the cat face. The cat has a really shiney nose. I used CA glue on the threads like lock tight. I want the grip of the lid opener handle similar to a base ball. Your fingers goes around the handle to get a better pull. Added bottle opener. 1inch thick acrylic. Drilled and tapped for bottle opener. Cut with Pegas #11 skip, really slow motor speed. No melting was done. Arrowhead for a friend that likes NFL. He named his cat "Chief". Edited June 13, 2021 by preprius added, updated new picture.

Tomanydogs Posted June 14, 2021 Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 Great idea I hate opening those types of tabs. The kitty face is an added bonus. Well Done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
