Well, I used my trusty SAK Super Tinker to remove about 5" of fabric from a new roller bling that I fitted in my daughters bedroom today. I then used a Topeak mini ratchet to fit the wall brackets. Job well done!

Atb, Jon.

The door itself was in working order, but I couldn't find the remote for it, so I had to release the lock. Thats when the Swisstool came in picture.  :ahhh

Aaaah yes, the SC saves the day again!¡! :tu:

I used my Micra to trim the ends of zip ties and to cut gaff tape. I was installing power strips and power cords on two tripods for our video cameras at church. Handy little tool!¡!  :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu:

I used my wave to open my cans of chili for dinner tonight and last night.  I also used it to file down a rough spot on a part I was gluing together for a toy my son has.

So far as a pocket paper weight.  Since I just started my day.

I would say off hand I will use it to pull some hubcaps cut some mechanics wire and little odds and ends.

Mine's pretty much been ballast so far to stop me being carried off by a light breeze  :whistle:

... and also reassurance that if something does crop up, I'm sorted  ;)

I used my Surge to remove the bait tray and hold down bar from a mouse trap so my son and I could make a catapult for his tech class at school.

Unfortunately I didn't think to take pictures before my son took it to school, but here is a link to the instructions that I used.

http://www.instructables.com/id/MouseTrap-Catapultp/

I found it to be ironic that the school does not allow students to bring weapons of any kind onto the school grounds, but the tech science teacher gives an assignment to the students that requires them to build a catapult at home and bring it to school.

I used my Wave on Thursday to tighten a clamp in my work truck that holds the support bar for my in cab organizer.  I also used it to tighten the mount plate for my rear cam/HHC mounts. 

All weekend it has gotten used for crimping N Scale track connectors together.

Unclogged a tub drain with a Wave. One sec of work = 1 hour preventing rust. Smurfing water. I need a swiss tool.
