Cool, good to have if the wife gets a little too frisky too.

I think you could probably make one of those.

Looks like a good project for a 3d printer.

Believe it or not, my nephew got tossed in the clink overnight for carrying a handcuff key on his keyring.

Don't handcuffs use the pin keep them from opening anymore ?
Been a long time since I wore a pair , but they had a pin on the back of the key to keep the cuffs from opening by picking or with a key if the pin was not pushed.

Two for $13. A little piece of molded plastic.


:rolleyes: gotta admit the design is superb...lol.

Worth researching.

The one that I made for myself is part of my belt that looks like it belongs there....... my "friend" made a can that was square instead of roung and he also made it into a lamp that could be taken apart in seconds.

Ok Ponce ,
what other than stack ability is the square can benefit and is there a reason or story to go along with the lamp made from it . Hide stash or other purpose ? Toilet paper is round so wouldn't that be wasted space in the corners to hide TP in ? Had to go there .

[Ponce]

My point is that people usually look for something that looks familiar......if it doesn't look like what they are looking for they will then ignored it............the key that looks as part of a buckle will be ignored and suppressor that my friend made square instead of round would also be ignored.......he also made one that looked as part of his pick up engine by adding some pipes going into the block.

Note to self , think before posting !
Yep Ponce , I was thinking can in the true extent of the word , not the type you were talking about .
Your version makes more sense than mine now.

I really need to get on that sometime. I'm a professional 3D artist and could easily design this. I just need to build/buy a 3D printer sometime...

This is a good business venture. I could do prepper/EDC plastic gizmos and offer the 3D mesh downloads for free with a Bitcoin donation link on top too. That would be a way to do it anonymously.


EDIT: Looks like it's already been done sorta:
