The Cobra Wood Scrapers are
chosen by hardwood floor
professionals to save time
Jungle Jim Tools got started in the late 90s. In the mid-80s Jim worked for Tucker Floors in Santa Cruz, CA. The Tuckers crafted their own scraper handles from wood, which I thought was pretty nifty. Inspired by my father’s entrepreneurial spirit as an independent software designer, I created a stream lined scraper design of my own.
When the economy slowed down in the late 90s, I had time and seized the opportunity to get creative. I believed my scraper design had potential, so I had an injection mold crafted for what would become the Original Cobra Scraper. I always made my own prototypes and drawings for manufacturers.
Fast forward half a decade, and after the Cobra Classic made its way to a few specialty flooring distributors, the 1 1/2” Cobra Detail Scraper was introduced. I recognized a need for a scraper and blade with tapered edges, perfect for reaching those tight spots other scrapers couldn’t.
Today, while Jungle Jim Tools may not yet be a widely known or rolling in profits, our sales continue to thrive, keeping me actively engaged in the wood floor industry. As a C-15 contractor, I’m often using my scrapers, always seeking to improve the trade.
