Ha! Ha! That is great!

I read on the creator's profile on ETSY that his name is Michalis Noukaris, lives in Thessaloniki, northern Greece, and he is a mechanic.
There is a mention somewhere of EDC tops, so he is aware of that scene.

I wonder if he perhaps saw Jim Bohem's corkscrew trophy:





But that one will also open the bottle  ;)

Very clever, Larry! Maybe I'll make one for AA batteries: "Load it, drain it, spin it" Think of the potential market!  ;D

I tend to go through 24-40 AA batteries a show. Make sure you have bulk pricing!

Man, that's a lot of batteries, Chris! Don't rechargeables work for your purposes? I have some heavily used NiMH AAs that are still going strong 10 years later.
