Tap Handles! Part One!

4/29/2015

0 Comments

 
This week, two important things happened:
1. Jared completed so much supplemental paperwork trying to get our state permit successfully submitted that his brow may now be permanently furrowed;
b. Jimbo got to play with a blowtorch for the first time! (not near the paperwork)

Now, you don't just hand an overexcited brewer a blowtorch for any dang reason. This particular scenario involved the continued use of our branding iron in an attempt to make us some tap handles! 
Picture
Pictured: Practice! Wood! Marketing! Excitement!
We tested out our branding heads on several different types of wood with some success: pine, oak, cherry, poplar, possibly an antique dining room table that we were explicitly asked not to work on, birch... maybe some other kinds too, but it turns out skulking around a lumber yard is more overwhelming than you'd expect so it's tough to say. Anyway! After a bit of practice we came up with some prototypes to play with at home while we keep honing our new wood burning skills:
Picture
Behold the naked wooden glory of a first draft.
We're pretty thrilled! While the pictured handle is unfinished, and we've still got a ways to go with our technique, this is a rough idea of what y'all will see when asking for your Bone Up in them Boston bars! Stay tuned for more updates on this project over the coming weeks. 

**Great thanks to Jimbo's dad Sam for helping create these and lending us his workshop space and (more importantly) his time this weekend!**
