I have been thinking about having them private label some custom ones for me.

Custom milled in identification..... Property of ....

We had a potential private label customer asking about a Kelly greenish color. I can't recall this color coming up too often in this thread.

A bit to tight (schedule wise) to make this year..... but I'd definitely buy a Kelly one ... esp with St Paddy's day just around the corner.....

I think Trusty should make a special edition for GJ members only.

With the GJ logo on it!

That would be cool.

We're getting close to starting up a new line. About a year ago, we had the capacity to store four colors with the two lines we had running. We've replaced those two lines and added a third line. Each of these three lines will store three colors.

Love hearing that TC is doing well and expanding....

Waiting patiently over here to see what the new color or colors are going to be!

What do you think? We're thinking this would look pretty cool with a dark blue brand and part number. It's technically not a new color for us, but we've never really offered this color in general.

A new color has been suggested by a potential private label customer. We'll see what happens.

That doesn't look like a glow in the dark hammer.

Darker version of the estwing grey color?

Or swirls

Looks like battleship grey to me. I love it, but couldn't buy it.
You couldn't pick a better color as camouflage in a machine shop. I'd put it down and never see it again.

Color is very industrial...old school machine gray (SBL gray at that). Regardless, I'd have to have a few just to say I have gray in the shop..

Pink..

I would like to see neon pink also...

Could go for neon blue!

I'll be pushing for pink as the year moves on and we get close to breast cancer awareness month.

Sounds like a plan!
Gives me time to save up some money.

Fresh from the mold, flashing and all.

 

[firworks]

That's a much nicer green. Is that the new private label customer color?

Yup, this is the color requested by the new--potential--private label customer.

 

[cliftonbros89]

I like it!

Any chance they will be available for the public? Even blems?

Late to the discussion, but another vote for pink.

Bright colors, generally, are great for finding amongst the clutter.

For the bluegrass fans:

There ain't one hammer, down in this tunnel
That can ring like mine, that can ring like mine

Rings like silver, shines like gold
Rings like silver, shines like gold

Nine pound John Henry model.

So if I want a private label will you make me a glow in the dark version?

When we start making lots of hammers, we normally end up with a few blems.

I wish we could say we have a true glowing Martian green in the works right now. I'm afraid we'll need to lighten this color up to get some glow going. Private or "special" labels are never out of the question; the colors for such labels, however, depend on criteria beyond my control.

Cool color and contrast....
