It looks like Squid Love probably won't be printed. I didn't expect it to but you can always hope.

A little better than 2.0 isn't high enough to be considered I don't think.

This is pretty close to the final version I think.

So speak now. If I don't submit it today, it will be Tuesday that I do.

I sort of wish I had gone with a more classic voodoo zombie look for the zombies as opposed to the living dead look they do have. I think though that most people are more likley to respond positivly to the living dead variety of zombies though so perhaps it's for the best. I personally like skinny c...

Slight update: Still working on the text, I'm refining the script used for the "Can they stop..." text. Right now it's just a calligraphy brush but I'm going to convert to outlines and tweak it a bit too. Same sort of text will be used for "... Voodoo Armageddon!". Added some mor...

So, obviously the catchphrase font isn't final, just a place holder... but what do you think of the catchphrase itself as well as the placement? http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3220/2335752837_bf710bdffb_o.png Also I'm starting to upload all my stuff to Flickr which I will then integrate into my site...

Well lets not jump to conclusions yet... these models are all a bit of a ways off and pricing is not set in stone. Speaking of which, where are these numbers from?

I wouldn't think this knife would be particularly good for food prep due to the negative blade angle.

This is the most recent version of the Spooky Dicks shirt. Has a hand drawn font and I messed with the colors. I really need some catch phrases to put up on it but everything I think of is terrible. http://dedguy.net/images/art/2008/spooky-dicks-layout-5.png I also posted for critique on Threadless ...

I find the needlenose pliers among the most useful parts of your average Leatherman. I also use the screwdriver a lot, and the interchangeable bits on the Wave are great. I actually just fixed my bumper with my wave which I wouldn't have been able to do with any SAK as I had to use a much larger tha...

I carry a Leatherman Wav daily, it's heavy as **** but I keep it in a messenger bag I carry so that it doesn't really bother me. I've looked at the Skeletool and it's very tempting but it just doesn't seem as versatile as the Wave. For example it doesn't have the scissors or tiny screwdriver both of...

The artist chooses the color, so in this case I chose the baby blue. Not actually a shirt I would wear honestly but Not everything I do is for my own tastes.

My Threadless submission which you may have seen in progress is now up for voting. If you like it I would appreciate it if you would give it a good rating.

I like a good new york strip. A good one, sometimes they're all gristle and chewy fat but a good one can be really great. I used to be big on filets (tenderloin) when I was younger since they're so easy to eat and have little to no gristle or fat to avoid eating. They also don't taste like anything.

Bolsters or not... it would be nice to see some of those in micarta, even colored micarta. Why do you think it is that G-10 is uesed so much more than Micarta? They're about the same cost wise right? Is G-10 just more popular?

Aside from the... er.. knork... I actually really like the design of the flatware. Probably among the most attractive flatware I have seen.
