I won’t even handle my jumpers all that much, let alone a full size tarantula. I’m working my way there though. I’ve got a bold jumper, an unknown jumper sling with a missing leg I’m nursing, and my now full grown male western black widow. All happily existing in their large BigFatPhids enclosures. Where they can’t get me.

Is that a Ranger 55? I’m about to pull the trigger on one of those. I’ll post it when it gets here. I’ve not dug our sharpener out since moving.
I have no idea what it is. That area was roped off so I couldn’t get too close to it. I really like the design though.

It looks like it. The Boston Ranger 55 is the Mac Daddy of sharpeners. The cutting mechanism is supported on both ends instead of floating where the pencil goes in like most others. It has greater cutting surface than most and it cuts from the outside down to the tip. Most others start chewing at the tip and eat back. These also have a 3 setting “tip selector”. It sharpens to an amazing tip and really makes a nice taper.
