Everyone involved with Crucible Tool has been working overtime to get the next batch of tools ready for the store on Saturday. Our machinist has been working Sundays. John and Raney have been reaming, sanding and assembling dividers nonstop. My fingers are bleeding a bit on my keyboard tonight from sanding our design curves.
At 2 p.m. Eastern Time on Saturday we will put all these up in the store. We know that many of you have patiently waited to get dividers or curves. We keep hoping that we’ve made so many tools that we don’t sell out immediately.
Thanks for your patience and your support.
We are currently working on how to get curves and dividers to market even faster, plus our next two new products (details to come).

Any video of John and Raney reaming nonstop?

You keep mentioning an increased price, but never come out with it? Is now the time?
The new price is $187. Sorry I forgot to mention that in the post.
That’s certainly not “cheap,” but seems totally reasonable. It’s smack dab in the middle of the neighborhood of measuring and marking tools of other smaller and/or higher quality makers.
I’m still a bit clumsy with my dividers and haven’t gotten to the point of unlocking the potential in my brain. But for what appears to be a heckuva nice tool that’s backed up by a team that cares about their work, this seems like a good price.
Good luck guys — I might not be a customer on the dividers today, but a year or so down the road if I’ve built my skills more and want to treat myself, I might pick these up to go with a copy of By Hand & Eye…
