Here you can find plans for several simple bottle openers designed like key fobs, so you can easily add the key ring and make practical key tag. Our plan offers a few ideas which you can use to manufacture bottle opener key tag in any similar shape you like. Retaining functional geometry of bottle opener on end, and changing shape of the rest of key tag, you can create many interesting pieces.  You can personalize it by writing or engraving name, initials, company logo or some simple pattern.

Bottle opener by our plan can be made out of different materials such as steel, metal alloys, or any solid and durable material that will not break during use. If you have a machine for cutting some of these materials, this will surely be interesting items to manufacture. Such designs of bottle openers are very suitable for cutting by different CNC machines (Laser cutter, EDM...). For this reason, on this page you can download 3D models (STEP and STL files) and 2D profiles (DXF file) of all six bottle opener shapes. After cutting, take a special attention on final surface quality, because key tag has to be pretty if you want to use it.
