Bottle Opener Ink Brayer (3D Printed Steel)

Combining my love of printmaking and everything print related with my love of a delicious craft beer, this is a functional bottle opener modeled to represent a printmaking brayer (ink roller). Approximately 1.5" wide, 2.5" long and 0.75" tall, it fits great in a pocket or can fit a key-ring. A great gift for anyone who loves printmaking!


I've worked through many prototypes of this bottle opener to arrive at a version that is large and strong enough to reliably open a bottle with ease, but also maintains the look and feel of a tiny ink brayer (does not work as brayer).

Below is a link to Shapeways.com who manufactures the bottle opener, as well as lots of pictures. Thanks!
