You can get those wedges at any hardware store, and people probably don't need them for a long time if you got the same handles with a tight press fit. Besides, like somebody said, there might be better things when/if the heads loosen (which they don't very easily with the tang system).
I wouldn't bother waiting for those...

The product John is alluding to is called Chair Loc. it's nothing short of amazing, and just because your kid borrowed your hammer and left it out in the rain and sun till the handle got loose there is no need to ever trash your wood handled tools by slamming metal wedges into them ever again:-)

So I'm just wonderin. I have an invoice marked Nov 24 and I have been eagerly stalking every parcel delivery person in the vicinity of my neighborhood for nearly a month with no results simply because A. I didn't request a specific number for my two hammers so I'm last on the list and B. I'm on hold for a metal wedge I can buy at any home depot, lowes, ace hardware, etc? I have problem being put below the number requesters. Should it not have been first come first serve? Was it not the outpouring of interested buyers that gave the project it's validation? Postal service being what it is with the Holiday and the fact that I will be climbing in NH beginning on Dec 28 when my package MAY arive. I hope the neighbors kids enjoy those expensive hubcap and auto theft entry tools they are about to aquire.

No one is being put ahead of anyone. We didn't assemble hammers in any given order - we just grabbed heads and hammers and started putting them together. Again, no one is getting shipped hammers before anyone else. Everyone will be getting their hammers about the same time and shipping will start in a day or two. If you want us to hold off shipping until after the holidays send me an pm.

Thanks Joe and crew for an amazing amount of work over the last several years!
I'm so crippled up I have some doubts about my ability to actually get out and use it, but with the last 31 dangleing in my face I couldn't resist.
D-5 madness...I'm wriggling in it's clutches! And by the way, I don't care when it comes or what number it is.
Thanks again, Nick Danger

Tap tap tap...
So if I also ordered a couple shirts on the same invoice, are they presumably going to ship separately?

You got My Hammer, Fatty. Not some wacko evil shite, just my birthday. Wanna trade? I'll throw in a bottle of good Dago red.
Edit- Moof, I already got my shirts, with a note saying the hammer is coming soon.

Moof... shirts come separately from my business while the hammers come from Theron in California. I just handled the finances for the D5 project.
I think there are perhaps 3-4 shirts that have not shipped yet since they were a style/color/size that I was out of stock on. Those have been/are being printed and will ship this week.
For those who ordered Tomahawks etc those are also coming from my company... Just waiting for a new box to arrive from Theron with a supply of toys! The packages are addressed and postage affixed... just need the toys!
