On Monday we should have these available in the MAKE store – you can order a plier version (P4) or electronics version (E4). They’re very small and fit on your key chain. I’ve had one for awhile now and it’s been the perfect companion for mobile fixing, hacking and MacGyvering. Anyhoo, we are laser etching these with a 35w laser as these photons are entering your eyeballs – stay tuned for more once they’re for sale, we have a limited number so stop back Monday!

phillip, would it be possible to post a picture of it against something like a quarter for a size comparison?
sure, will do – check the make flickr group
Hey N3rrd: 12 gauge wire is 0.08080810 inches diameter. Use that to figure out the scale in the image and then calculate the length. :-)
lol, I have a chart of wire gauge diameters, but I’m a visual learner? Well, either that, or I’m really lazy.
Regardless, I gave him a chance to post a picture of the Makers Manifesto.
I’ve had my “Radioshack” version for a few years now. LOVE it. So if MAKE sells out, check out theirs (same price, but no extras).
And yes, I’m order a few of the MAKE ones as gifts. And a spare for me!
Looking for the size? I left mine at the office, but from memory, (and a nearby ruler, I’d say it measures… 2″ long folded up. Oh, and the RadioShack URL for their version is:
http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2104745&cp
Messed up the URL link the first time.
I’m at the office now. It measures 2.25″ long, 0.5″ thick, and 13/16″ wide.
It’s Monday, and I’m already making the order-takers at MAKE grumpy with my calls to order some… (they’re not available yet).
Ok maybe I am blind but couldn’t find this at the Make store.
Yeah I know what you mean. I must have checked this site about 50 times today. Can’t wait to get one of these.
