A few weeks ago I made some viper key chains.Turned out great but I decided to make a different style key fob.This is made of brass about .08 thick.Etched logos on them and then painted and polished.It kind of looks like a jewelry piece.So it is a multi purpose trinket.
This pic is the old style on top and the new design on bottom.
Then after I was satisfied with the out come I made a few more.
Here is a pic of all the key fobs.I made a few Viper invades Niagara fobs also.
With that project finished I started on a picnic set of a heavy duty salt and pepper shaker and a napkin holder.
I drilled out the body of the shakers and then tapped the bottom with a 1 1/4 12 thread.I then took a piece of ready rod and cut to proper length,so it would sit flush on the bottom after inserted.And for the screw driver slot on insert.I found using a band saw blade and making a score was easy and worked well.
Now on to the napkin holder.Perhaps a bit of over kill.
The base is 6"x 5"x.625 thick.I slotted the base to accept the sides that are standing upright.Each side is etched with a viper logo.The uprights are attached to base with a light press fit.No welds or screws are needed.Here are a few pics from different angles.
This pic is of both projects as a set.I wonder if I could market this Heavy Duty picnic set in hurricane prone areas?
The napkin holder will get a final polish after painting the logos of yet an undecided color.
Well that about wraps up my projects to date.The salt and pepper shaker look a bit blocky,but the over all final product did turn out unique.I will probably never use these for intended purpose.But I have the means to make the stuff.So I take advantage of it.
