Building and inventing is cool, cheers pi, I recon climbers do this all the time in devising pro and anchors. Cool it may be but for all my past ideas and projects LittleHammer is the closest to success I've come. If it takes off I might even get to retire my rigid stem cams!

Got some new aid gear prototypes I'll bring to the BAW if you're there.

Finished the Kickstarter campaign with 159% funding and over 21,900 views of the video, plus heaps of other forum and social media activity, so I'm happy the word got out. Once I get the first of the production batch I'll be sending LittleHammers out for review which will take it to the next level.

After a short break I'm moving on with the production, it's a week or so before the funding comes through but I can keep things ticking over. I learn't a lot about springs yesterday as the stainless steel samples I got weren't up to the task. Head still sore from working with newton/millimetres… I've ordered samples of something with more grunt, despite my calculations it'll be trial and error to prove the performance in this application.

Made a new page on climbdesign.co for LittleHammer where all the news will go: http://climbdesign.co/littlehammer/
