Would you please make more with 14mm Spydie hole, my fat thumbs would thank you

Here's a quick picture.

Mine would be a "keys to happiness" totem. It would only require 2 holes. 1. Family, 2. Community.

Thanks for sharing Sal. Have your values changed since you started wearing it? I like it and may get one, but I'm pretty partial to my DogTag knife around my neck.My "Personal" value totem is:
Health; Because if I'm not healthy, I can't do anything about anything else of value. Everything below on the totem, will be dependent on my ability to be healthy enough to accomplish whatever needs to be done.
Family; If one is going to create a family unit, and be responsible for that family unit, everything else that one expends energy on, will be affected by the family unit.
Home; A safe, warm, dry place for the family unit.
Work / Career; Provides the power to maintain the family unit, maintain the work / career unit, and perhaps plan / provide for the future of the family unit and work. Better if one enjoys their work, but often that is
matter of attitude, which is another discussion.
Friends / hobbies; Personal rewards that are not met by 1,2,3 & 4
We use holes so one can define their own priorities. Also keep in mind that priorities will change as situations change, one gets older, and one learns more.
