Well, long story short...

Hugh McGuigan is our amazing Moderator in the Facebook group and I simply cannot say enough great things about him. He's fair, reasonable, super-positive and an all-run fun (and funny!) guy.

I can't recall the specifics of how the Hugh slider started ...but I do recall saying to Hugh I would like to make one bearing his name. However, Hugh came up with his own design and emailed me a rough sketch with various notes ...and I was able to bring it into 3D-model form. Although, truth be told, it was very hard to get right and took me a number of attempts over a couple of months.

But...

The end result is a slider with a bit of an "X-Factor" AND rock-solid grip.

I have done a small, limited run of them (only in Titanium and Zirconium).
