Here are some of the titanium gadgets I make. I can offer these in a plain, high polish, sandblasted, and stonewashed finish and can anodize them in several different colors. Below are just a few of the finishes. I can also stencil patterns on some of these.

I also offer anodizing services on titanium gear. I have anodized a lot of knives from some of the members of this forum. Send me a PM or email for more information if you want to get something custom anodized.

from left to right, Leviathan, exo tube xl $220, exo tube $160, son of exo tube $100, exo runt $100, and nitro pod $65.

Maybe the mods will move this to services offered , you will get more traffic there for custom work.
PM coming on something I would like.
Amazing colors my friend!

That new exo-flame looks nice; but, I don't see it up on your store page. Are these still in manufacturing? Is there filler in the body to surround the wick; or, is the fluid just poured into the body and the striker used as a lid? If that's the case, how well does it seal and will lit leak if upside down?

These are new and I have not added them to my site yet. Here is a picture of the internals which are all Titanium. Only non titanium pieces are the flint, wick and flint spring.

 
When do you think they'll become available? Is there a list for them? How does the new Exo-Flame size up? Is it still about the size of the Son of Exo-Tube like the old Exo-Flame? By the way, I'm digging the dual caps on the new Exo-Tubes. I just upgraded my old style ET with a dry compass in the lid. Last derailed train of thought question; any chance you're going to make some more of the locator beads with tritium? My glow powder one just doesn't quite cut the mustard after a while in the dark.
 
The original exo flames are the size of an aa battery, just shorter. The exo flame xl is like a D battery. Im not working with tritium anymore sorry.
 
From personal experience I can say that Esteban's work is superb. I always think of him as an anodizing master. So many colors and designs he can do, very good custom work and his prices are fair. If you want some amazing colors done by a true professional then he is your guy.
 
Just to ask, why no tritium? Hard to work with or just really expensive to deal with? Or another reason....?
 
is it better to order from your site or can i just order through email or on the forum?

are the locator pods able to be modified without too much craziness by myself, if i procured some tritium vials? i guess i'm asking how easily will the glow powder vials come out and are they a size that is also available in a tritium vial?

second, will you ship to canada for me, and if so, can you use the basic first class international method? it costs about ten bucks total to ship something as small as a few beads, a locator, and maybe a couple other small items.

also, what's the fire piston? is it basically a firestick type thing? if so does it come with the firestick material itself or is it just a holder?

finally, two things: 1) in the photo that's about half way down the random photos section, right above the pic with the nitecore flashlight in it - what is that in the orange sheath/pouch? do the pouches come with the items that are shown with pouches in the pics? and 2) what is the silver thing that's in the pic above the orange sheath pic - looks like it might be a pen or maybe a marlinspike but figured i'd ask so i know - or is the pic just to show the bead and the silver thing isn't an item you sell?
 
sorry for the late reply. easiest way to order is through my site, but you can send me a PM or email as well.

As far as the locator pods, it all depends what size you get them in and your skill level at epoxying them in place.

as far as shipping I can ship any way you like, first class international is sketchy though and cannot be insured, so if it gets lost I cannot be held responsible. Only express mail can be insured.

The fire piston is a tool used to make fire. It works much like a diesel engine. Compressed air heats up char cloth inside the piston tube and ignites the char cloth which can then be used to start a fire. you can google more info on fire pistons or check out the videos on my youtube channel under tisurvival.

the item inside the orange sheath is a kubaton, used for self defense. the silver thing above the picture of the orange sheath is also a kubaton. if you click on the pictures they open up to a larger window which you can see better, in case you weren't able to open it. You can also send me an email to tisurvival@gmail.com if you like.

Take care,
Esteban
