    @PSU_Mike Thanks for the tip! I ended up going the Photobucket route as most of my pics are already on my phone. Good looking out though!

    I made a bunch similar to that - just a strip of 1x2 maple from the big box home improvement store (the orange one,) a bit of work with jigsaw and sander, sheet metal screws and some stain.
    Easily my favorite openers to use...

    Found this one a few years back on a Coachella trip and have been using it ever since, definitely my favorite opener to date and works like a champ for those wax sealed or corked bottles too.

    I must admit, that is a sweet bottle opener. I didn't care about bottle openers but I do now.

    These are my current favorites. I just cut these off of some wood that was glued together and stuck a nail in the end. Very simple but very effective, no bent caps.[​IMG]

    Got one of these bad boys as a gift a while back and have actually really enjoyed it. Magnet is handy, and it pulls off the cap without almost any bend, so I can snap it back on there before I throw it in the recycler (because cleaning out a recycling bin laced with old beer drippings sucks.)

    Can't wait for my new opener to arrive this week. Custom fleur-de-lis opener with wax cutter.

    Big fan of the Ravenhill Areaware as well. I have one that I use on the side of my fridge. Keeps caps unbent for collecting. I'm also a big fan of my keychain opener from Firestone Walker. A little weathered, but it does the trick and looks great.

    Nice.

    I went the route of your basic everyday hotmetal whaleslayer.

    They don't just open bottles, they have sound effects and music.
