THE WORLD'S LIGHTEST AND MOST COMFORTABLE CLECO PLIER. BORN FROM A ZENITH 750 PROJECT! We have radically changed the 80 year old design of the cleco plier with a new patented design.
Hi guys,
I am a 750 builder and am almost done with my project. Just need to attach doors and windows, and the finished wings and tail over the next 60 days.
Anyway, in the course of building my plane, I got really irritated (literally) with the current cleco plier that we use on a daily basis. After tinkering around with a couple of cardboard and plastic prototypes, I patented a new cleco plier design that we released yesterday for sale.
THE CLECALL UPRIGHT CLECO PLIER
I am very proud to say that if it was not for the 600 hours working on my Zenith, I would have 1/10th of the working knowledge about engines and airplanes that I have acquired through this process. Even after flying for 14 years, I did not even scratch the surface of knowledge about engines, building methods, etc. until I started this project. And it is this knowledge that helped me bring this product to market. So Kudos to the home building process! It can build an airplane and a business!
We have received 520+ orders in just the last 24 hours, and I hope that you will find this creation to be as important to your project as I did mine. We really think it will save you a ton of time and pain.
The pliers are currently 20% off of the normal price until Oct 1st.
I look forward to continuing to help the Zenith community grow. Please contact me with any questions or feedback.
Sincerely,
Christopher Braun

Thank you John Austin for allowing me to mention this as a builder and thank you to the community for answering a number of questions over the past 2 years. It has made the process of finishing the 750 much easier!

Chris,
I did say you could mention your product and contact info, but, not having seen your post prior to publication ... maybe it came out a little too commercial? LOL!
Aw shucks, we'll let this go and good luck with your invention!

Still a good choice in letting him post this! This is exactly the type of innovation and creativity we need in the community and should encourage and support each other.

Thanks for the support! It's amazing what the internet can do these days. First order came from Alaska, 2nd from Boston, and third from Brazil. Crazy to think of what this would have been like 20 years ago.

I'm your Alaska order and I second Todd's comment. Certainly no harm done with relevant commercial posts.

That's pretty cool. Every tool box needs a set :>)

Bob,
Thanks! I couldn't agree with you more. We got a pretty solid amount of orders yesterday particularly from this site. Pretty exciting. We added spring loading yesterday to open the plier for faster deployment. All pieces ordered from will have this feature.
Also, I am offering a free plier to the person who ends up recommending the best color for anodizing for the long run. We are currently using a "titaniumish"color.
Feel free to reply to this and suggest your favorite color to win a free plier!

Chris,
I would like a red one ! It would be easy to find it in any toolbox.
Nice design.
