"OK. That's not the real motivation behind the titanium broom, but it wouldn't surprise us. In actuality, the story of the titanium broom handle dates all the way back to Jason's first welding job. At the time, he was building a heat exchanger for a nuclear plant somewhere in Nebraska, which resulted in him becoming the owner of leftover 0.022″ walled titanium tubing."
"Naturally, any man would have trouble throwing away perfectly good tubing, so he kept it. And carried that tubing with him from place to place over the past 25 years. Finally inspired to do something with it, Jason decided his titanium dust pan from King Cage needed a titanium broom counterpart, and the tubing was the right size to use with a standard broom head like the HDX broom from Home Depot. Of course, the end was capped off with the Abbey logo."
"You could do that in true Abbey style with this over-the-top bourbon kit complete with stainless steel shot glasses. Those shot glasses just may be the most precise in the world, and are meticulously machined from 316L food-grade stainless steel. They may also be among the heaviest shot glasses in the world, as they are just shy of a pound each - but the knurled finish will make sure you can maintain your grip, rep after rep."
Jason Quade acquired leftover 0.022″ walled titanium tubing while building a heat exchanger for a nuclear plant in Nebraska and kept it for 25 years. He repurposed the tubing into a titanium broom handle sized to fit a standard HDX broom head and capped the end with the Abbey logo to match a titanium dust pan from King Cage. The titanium broom is extremely light, reducing sweeping fatigue though possibly too light for heavy-duty sweeping. A Precision Bourbon Kit includes meticulously machined 316L food-grade stainless-steel shot glasses that are nearly a pound each and feature a knurled finish; the kit was created as a MADE project and is not slated for general sale.
