Appearance and function match the final product, but is made with different manufacturing methods.

Demonstrates the functionality of the final product, but looks different.

A prototype is a preliminary model of something. Projects that offer physical products need to show backers documentation of a working prototype. This gallery features photos, videos, and other visual documentation that will give backers a sense of what’s been accomplished so far and what’s left to do. Though the development process can vary for each project, these are the stages we typically see:

These photos and videos provide a detailed look at this project’s development.

TIDY-CARAB | A CARBON FIBRE CARABINER

Probably, the first carabiner made from carbon (carbon fiber) worldwide.

With the idea to create something unique, the idea of a carabiner as an EDC tool made of high quality carbon fiber slowly developed.

Carbon is a material that consists of several layers of woven fabric and through combination of resin becomes a durable material with high-strength.

Normally, it is used in aircraft construction and racing to create components with a high weight/strength ratio.

With this knowledge and after long consideration and numerous prototypes, we can now introduce the TIDY-CARAB to you.

Cut from a 4 mm thick carbon fiber plate, the carabiner is extremely stable, resistant and robust with a low weight of only 12 grams.

Besides, the typical carbon surface, great emphasis was placed on its design and functionality.

In addition to the the usual functions, the carabiner has a holder for bits, a wrench for nuts, an integrated bottle opener and a separated part for a key ring.

It is thus possible to mount multiple chains, keys and many other things without any problems.

Simply secure your important things with the TIDY-CARAB on your pants and protect yourself against theft or loss.

Furthermore, thanks to our carabiner, you always the right tool for minor repairs at hand. (Optional with many different bits)

Make your carabiner a real Multitool

During the production in Germany, we only use high quality materials such as carbon and stainless spring steel, which is why we can guarantee a long life of our product.

We produce our carabiners with the highest standards of quality and durability, but explicitly point out here that the TIDY-CARB is designed as an EDC tool and has no authorizations. The carabiner is therefore in no case to be used for climbing or similar activities.

THE DIMENSIONS ARE:

Length : 85 mm / 3.34 Inch

Width : 43 mm / 1.69 Inch

Thickness: 4 mm / 0.157 Inch

We have spent this year testing and developing our TIDY-CARAB as well as producing the first prototypes.

At this point, it is time to turn to you and realize our project.

We need your support to execute and finance large production.

We are ready - Let's launch this great product...
