    Default Warthog Tusk Bottle Openers

    Mods, I wasn't sure where to post this thread and figured this was the best chance of positive feedback. Please delete or move if not appropriate.

    I have a whole lot of warthog tusks that i have accumulated over the years and want to make some warthog tusk bottle openers.

    I have been playing with ABE epidermix 372 and am happy that that is the right epoxy for me to use.

    My problem is that I cannot find any stainless steel bottle openers to buy so I can use them and fix them into the warthog tusks. Looked online, Makro, bottle stores and the Chinese Mall to name a few places.

    Can anyone advise where I can get them from?

    Have you maybe tried these advertising companies??
    The ones that make these little pens & lanyards & small items that the corporate world buys & gives way to customers?

    I'm also interested.

    While we're discussing it, I'd also be interested in corkscrews.

    Find an engineering shop who do laser or waterjet cutting, they can make them to your spec.

    try KMTS, they had some laser cut units that bought at not too silly price

    www.kmts.co.za

    they are a supplier of blade blanks and knife making steel and other components and tools. They are in Pretoria North, but do mail order
