FINISHED PRODUCT !!!!!!!

here it is....the final design, more like a shotgun choke in looks....and it is shorter and more balanced in the hand. I like the slots parallel to each other and opposite the rows....I also drilled holes through the barrel so you can put a small diameter lanyard through it to hang on your neck..... this one is cherry with cherry two piece..

Now that's thinking out side the box.
If you put in Walmart you would make a killing.

I have been working on the weight distribution of these new fangled LocaStrikers...and i have come up[ with two options. The lighter bell will be made from Eastern Red Cedar he heavier will be Cherry...now some folks would not figure weight an issue, but...
in some cases it is all about how comfortable the striker feels in the hand, and weight distribution (center pivoting point) between the shaft and the bell is important for this. Over all weight is less then 1/10th of an ounce...using similar weighted wood for the striker shaft..... and with the weight set right the length is not as noticeable as you would think....headed to patent office with this one...

Those are certainly an interesting idea Jack! Look forward to hearing how they're working out.
