    It will definitely work, I threw this air system together just for the picture, not something I use...

      I think the Geddon will be the 'worst case scenario' with a wedge in general, my offset definitely corrects the problems with it.

      I've never used a wedge of any kind so I can't draw from experience in my design but I really can't tell any difference between mine and the original except it frees up you hand and wrist. In other words if you like the wedge you should be happy with my design.

        Love your twist to a simple component accessory. I'm looking forward to this. Any thoughts to a cool milling pattern on the side, or where you planning on leaving it plain?

          For as simple as it looks, you would be surprised how much of a hassle it was to engineer and how difficult it was to actually machine.

            I had planned on leaving it as is, but could do something, but as soon as I did someone would ask to leave it off. lol

            I'm not opposed to doing something, but if I did it won't be an option, that just screws with inventory. :)

                  I'm up for making these but I'm going to have to do a pre-order, any takers or is it gonna be a flop?

                          My vote would be to incorporate the AGD lion somehow. I know it's a small space. The hex pattern would screw with the looks of markers that don't already have the hex pattern incorporated into it. Maybe the lion wouldn't be the greatest choice either. Something could be done with that area. Why not just incorporate a logo in there. It wouldn't bother me a bit to rock that with a big ol' Luke's Customs logo. I always wondered why you were fighting this project so much. I didn't realize you were putting the offset in there with it. I'm sure it was a real pain now that I see what you were trying to accomplish. Nice job again Luke!

                            Not likely, it's not an easy change, all new fixtures, all new CADs and programining.

                              I decided what I'm going to do for a logo an the RHS, the left will remain blank. I'll cut one more prototype to test it out this morning. (Unfortunately once these are machined past the first operation (There's four) there is no way put them back in any of the fixtures to engrave)
