A Marine had me make this so I am submitting it to the DoN for review.
A Marine had me make this bottle opener for him and said Green is the best flavor.
Just seeking corporate approval for Menu 4.

I was really tired of the Amazon grade bubble machines that took forever to de-gas the resin. I stepped up and got a vacuum pump used for air-conditioning units and an acrylic chamber and I am kicking myself for not doing this sooner.
Theres a tie between red and blue for top flavor. I cant decide.
Is it by design that Etsy gives vague analytics? Like when someone follows your shop wouldn’t it be nice to know what item led them there? Or how about knowing how long an item was being perused? Just a thought.
Thank you to the guys who helped me get to the end of this project that was burrowed deep in the back of my head. Finally got to a point that I am pleased with and couldn’t have done it without the help from this group. I learned a lot along the way. Thanks again 🫡
I made this red crayon flavored bottle opener because apparently I have a questionable amount of free time. Or because a Marine asked me to. Also available in blue flavor.
Edit: Reddit won’t let me go back and fix the title to correctly spell Corps. My apologies.
I started off making Buffy the Vampire Slayer themed magnets for my wife, then it evolved into some shows I like such as It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia and Community.
I like to incorporate a 3D Printed element to make the design have depth when possible.
I make custom bottle openers and a Marine hired me to make this for his buddy. Yes, that’s a real crayon and yes, it’s a fully functional bottle opener.
He said the menu number was of special significance. Hope you all enjoy this. He’s stoked on it.
Someone is offering me a good deal on this exact scope. I’ve never heard of this brand but what little I can’t find about it appears to be pretty positive. Can anyone else provide any insight on it?
I’ve always wanted to own a display piece of a cross sectioned a cartridge. Being a handloader, I have no shortage of brass and bullets.
I started off just making a small magnet and it lacked what I was looking for so I made a bottle opener instead. Gotta say, I’m finally happy with it.
Do you have any idea how hard it is to make a clean cross section like this? I didn’t until I tried and holy mackerel is it tough!
Thanks for checking it out!

I had a crazy person win an item in an auction. I shipped it. Moments after it hit the post office, my phone starts blowing up:
“Please cancel. I didn’t mean to bid on this”
(They were high bidder for several days)
“I already bought this item from another seller”
(Intention of purchase)
“Oh please oh please help me. Help.” (X20 of these messages)
So I decide to refund the person if and only if they return the item. I am a no return policy in this auction but I figure what the heck, I’m not a monster.
Three days later they open a dispute with their bank and I respond. The bank sides with her after two weeks. No surprise. I’m covered by seller protection but it only covered eBay’s fees. Whatever I’m new to this.
Now the buyer has not returned my item and won’t answer my messages. I’ve spoken to eBay and they say to try and recover the item, fine, but report their account if I don’t get the item back.
I don’t want to create problems and have my account messed with (perhaps I’ve read too much r/ebaysucks), but should I just move on and forget it or leave feedback and report?
If you all remember, a few weeks back I made a keychain with a cross sectioned bullet in it. I want to thank everyone for the great feedback I received. It was incredibly helpful.
As time went on and different evolutions of this project took form, I got unhappy with what I was producing. It was cool, but no real utility. So eventually I decided to make them into bottle openers.
So here’s where I am at. Still has a cross sectioned .223 within it, measured to SAMMI spec with a 69 grain SMK.
