Ultimate essentials SAK mod idea

Maybe you should counsider doing it on 93mm alox frame

I agree but like Steven said, the bit driver and holder could be a problem since apparently nobody has tried to fit those in a 93mm SAK as of yet
Would be very cool though, an alox CyberTool. Count me in.

unfortunately cannot happen, the cybertool bit driver cannot be put on a 93mm alox frame 

Anyone know the answer to the two questions:

1) if the mike horn ranger awl can fit in the space of the corkscrew and 'end-open' rather than 'middle-open'?

2) if there are any 'half size' metal saw/file tools for SAKs apart from the mike horn ranger?

[Raukodur]

Actually forget it, given how expensive the mike horn ranger is, this would jus tbe an academic question.

Far as I can see, there are no other metal saw/files which are half size the full length one.

Actually I think the cybertool could fit on a alox frame. Gimmie a little time and I'll see.

please let it be so!

Well if anyone wants to donate a used cybertool to the cause that would help. It may be simple,it may not.

The cybertool bit driver should work with a spring (or two/three, actually, the bit driver is pretty thick compared to most tools) from a different tool, and a bit of grinding/filing. You'll need to make a different bit holder for it, though; since the pin spacing is all wrong you can't use the original springs and bit holder. Or you could make a small piece to balance the spring on the opposite side, leave the center empty, dump the bits inside, and let them rattle. 

It's mostly just a matter of how much time and effort you want to put into it.

I know it's not quite the same, but I'm almost done with my 84mm alox bit driver, just a couple more things to do, mostly making a piece for the opposing side to balance the spring out. If I get a chance, I'll start a new post and get some WIP pics up, just been soo busy lately, I haven't had time to do much of anything but work/eat/sleep.

Sounds good Glynn! Very interested in pictures

So in talks with Steve about this mod.

The current theoretical layout we have is 4 layers on an alox frame:

• scissors
• pliers
• cybertool bit driver
• metal saw/file and end opening awl (in same layer)

Will be very interesting to see if there is possible.
