What apprentice marks ;)

I always tell my  students, it’s OK if their projects aren’t perfect. Handmade things are never perfect.

This is also my second run at this. The first was worse. This is functionally much better.

The big one is definitely more convenient for bottles. Long, long  ago when working in a restaurant bar all bottles were opened with that style opener, and all wine bottles were opened with the waiter’s key.

I think the only time the bottle opener on the “wine tool” was used was if the bottle opener was missing for some reason - usually a waiter grabbing stuff they shouldn’t touch. Assholes.

The bottle opener on the waiter’s key is certainly crap. I’d rather just leverage the whole thing to pop the cap then try to use the bit that was designed to be used.
