Very nice, I like them all!
My goal in life is to be the kind of person my dog thinks I'am.
Good stuff.
I had a compass, but without a map, it's just a cool toy to show you where oceans and ice are.
Nice!
Now ... What's the chance of taking each and reducing the weight ... then balancing them?
I like them alot especially the orange one. But I think any would fit my hand.
Glad you like them.

very nice....I love this....
Balance? Weight forward, weight aft, neutral balance, center of gravity point all changes depending on the user and what task is at hand. The customer requested 1/4" stock for this one. I normally use 3/16. Beyond reducing material thickness, the best way to reduce (perceived) weight is to develop some grip strength - rock climbing and pull ups work best - lol.

@ Bush Monkey - you do realize that your shop is entirely too clean don't you?
LOL
My BMW R1200RT parked in the shop likes a squared away parking area.
