Added a new tool to my survival kit

[waltermitty]

Not much action going on at Seattle CHAZ/CHOP so I went to the garage for something to do. I spotted
a box of empty brass to sort then remembered a photo I saw on the web a few months back.

This only took 5 mins to create with the angle grinder. I spent more time polishing it.

Take one 50 BMG case, make a few cuts with the cutoff wheel, debur, and test fit.

Then, I thought "hey, I have a magnesium fire stick" and found that it fit perfectly using the brass as a handle

anyhoo, just in case you have a case laying around waiting to be reloaded. I may tumble a few more
cases to cut and give out as presents

seriously, what I was planning to do was to head over to CHAZ with a frequency counter, then
log the tactical frequencies used by the loosers and program my radio to match. park nearby
and call in alerts of ninja govt guys in tactical gear, personnel carrier, etc positioning to reclaim
their turf.....and record the action as they chased shadows

...while i open another bottle using my new opener, natch

You used the words "50 BMG" and "angle grinder" in one sentence. I owe you a beer.

Cool idea.

I made a cigar cutter out of a 30-30 case.
