BearMan Report post Posted April 12, 2009 Hello Everybody, I one of my other posts, we got on the discussion about Bar Grounders. Here are a couple that I use from time to time,,, sometimes I forget though!! Anyway,,, they are made out of 304 Stainless. My local Marine supply house carries lots of Satinless, in many forms. These were origanally large nails. It really tested my eyes making these,,, even with a magnifier. I have another one in this same size not pictured, which has 7 holes. These were made using a 1/32" drill bit, & some small files. What do "Ya'll" think. Ed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gtwister09 Report post Posted April 12, 2009 Ed, Hmmm. The one that really caught my eye was the offset cluster one. That's not the normal style - it's different and neat. Another unique feature that jumped out at me but had nothing to do with your bargrounder pattern was the rather unique pattern of holes along the shaft of the tool.

BearMan Report post Posted April 12, 2009 Hi Ben, I can't claim the design for either, of those. The "cluster" is something I remembered from one, from a Looong time ago. The drilled impressions, I actually saw from someone on here. I wish I knew thier name so I could give them credit. Once I find out who it is,,, I will post it here. Ben, I'm glad You liked it anyway! Ed Ed, Hmmm. The one that really caught my eye was the offset cluster one. That's not the normal style - it's different and neat.
