Machined Bottle Opener

In high school metal shop I made this bottle opener. I love this thing, so I thought I'd capture it in 3D. The body, cap and fluted handle were made on a lathe. (the flutes were already cut into the handle stock) The opener end was done on a bridgeport style mill. The threaded rod was cut from a bigger piece, but could also be made on a thread cutting lathe.
