Titans - Acrylic (beta)
Titans - Acrylic (beta)
NOTE: These are sold individually so you can pick your colours, so YOU’LL NEED TWO for a set of begler!
NOTE: The first drop included brass Nano Standards, but the current drop will ship with STAINLESS STEEL Nanos instead.
Ice Titans (beta)
The acrylic “Ice Titans” are machined from a durable transparent acrylic material, and come complete with anodized aluminum Newton inserts, and stainless steel Nano Standards to give them a little bit of additional weight if desired. The Ice Titans feature the classic Titan shape which has stood the test of time as a reliable, comfortable, high performance design, in an all new material. The acrylic material is slightly grippy, which is helpful in performing certain tricks, and is also slightly softer and less “clacky” than its delrin and metal counterparts.
Please note that these are being sold as single beads, which allows you to mix and match colours. You’ll need to purchase two in order to have a set of begleri.
Details:
• Ice Titan Beads: 19mm height x 19mm diameter; 3.7g per bead
• Aluminum Newton cores: 14mm height x 14mm max diameter (protrude 2mm from base of Titans); 2.7g per bead
• SS Nano Standards: 8mm height x 7.7mm diameter; 2.3g each
The Ice Titans are being released as a “beta” launch because issues in the manufacturing have resulted in a very tight bottom bore. The beads are close enough to spec, and pretty enough, that we have decided to make them available, HOWEVER, the hardcore inserts are not easily swappable. For this reason, rather than selling them as stand alone shells, we are pressing in the aluminum Newtons and selling them as a single unit, along with the matching Nano Standard. It is not possible to recess a full knot when the Nanos are inserted, but there is ample room for a melted “pancake” at the end of the cord, which will keep the beads securely in place. Please read the caveats below before purchasing.
CAVEATS:
Do not buy these expecting to mix and match with various hardcore beads.
Do not use with Micro Hydras or Micro Standards (they will get stuck). Only use with flanged beads (Hercs, Newtons, End Caps).
Please know in advance that acrylic, while surprisingly durable, will show scratches and chips more easily than other materials, and the clear optics will become clouded over time if they are dropped, smacked, or scuffed repeatedly... that's the nature of the beast with begleri, so basically, if you're going to use them, they're going to look used.
