I saw this on the Proj and decided to share it here. I don't have the dough to support, so sharing it seems the next best thing. I wish I did, though. Seems like a cool idea: spring-loaded nut tool.

I dunno, it looks heavy and cumbersome to me. Give me a size 12 and a nutbuster any day.

How can you assess the weight from a photo/video?
Did you miss its huge, key advantage - one-handed use?
Maybe read this thread: http://www.mountainproject.com/...ickstarter/110979110

Perfect for those that don't know how to use a normal nut tool.

I use a chainsaw. Each tooth gives the nut a bump × 100's at higher RPMs.

Don't even notice it hanging off my harness while climbing.
