Just got this in the mail through a trade and thought I would give my feedback.

WOW!

First off, the tap handle is much bigger than I imagined -- about twice as big. It weighed in at 1.3 lbs (the wooden Avery handle next to it in my photo is 0.7 lbs) and really is a quality piece of work. Beautiful shades of green (photos don't do it justice), looks just like a hop cone, and feels like it was made to fit in your hand. Nice wooden mount, too. Can't say enough good things about this guy. Thanks!

Those are cool! I was talking to my son the other day about some of the goofy products that came out in the 70's. Ronco came to mind. I was telling him about a device that used to cut the top off of beer bottles to make glasses out of but, the glasses usually were really fragile and wound up breaking because of the lack of reinforced lip at the top! (my dad was a beerhound.. )

Anyway, I think yours make better sense.. Nice job!

 

[pickles]

Can we see what hop handles are left? I'm interested for sure! Heck I'd even be willing to take one without a base if its a hassle (I build furniture). Very cool work my friend!

I did a little enhancing on your pic, it was off color and underexposed, probably because of the whiteboard behind the taps. Is this closer to the actual color?

 

[greenbirds]

Yes that is much closer, thanks. I took one with the flash and thought it was overexposed and fake looking. But that is pretty close. It's tough to get a representative photo, because the glass becomes somewhat translucent at the thinner parts, giving the illusion of being lighter in color there. It's a really nice effect when you have light shining on it -- almost glows.

Whatever happened to these?

I was dreaming of tap handles, and wondered how awesome it would be to have one of these, but - wait for it - with a grenade handle in it. Sort of like the BN Army logo:
