Great design idea and development guys, well done indeed.

Just requires a slot for tritium   :D

Thanks Guys,

Time for an update; got the revised jigsaw holder back a few days ago and it works perfectly.
I did discover something new however and that is that the wave clip slot is a slightly different size to the charge. It doesn't mean the holder won't fit but it does mean a bit of filing is needed down one edge of the interface clip, not the end of the world though and in the charge it fits like a glove.









As you can see i got a bit carried away and painted the text to make it clearer and stand out.





I'll have to have a think about how to proceed with these.
Pictures of most of my work can be found on my Facebook Page.
Also have a look at my Shapeways Shop and SW Torch Shop for 3D printed items.

Looks cool. 8)

Do you think you could find someone to make them for you at a more affordable price than Shapeways? You could sell them through EDCS as Bob did with the saws.

Nice. How about one that clips into a Leatherman Bit Driver (so the end would be like the end of a bit driver extender)?

Wouldn't that just fall straight out as soon as you pulled it?

Hold on a mo...

Peter's design deals with the falling out issue because it locks in to the locking tab. The bit driver has no locking tab so one that fitted in to the bit driver would just fall out wouldn't it?

The bit holder on my Skele has a little latch to keep bits in place but yes, they will come out with some force - and given most jigsaw blades work on the pull stroke you would have to be careful.
Having said that, people have modded jigsaw blades to go straight into bit holders.

I've just ordered a small number of these (5) so some should be available just before christmas possibly.

I don't know of any other manufacturing process that could produce these parts in the overall shape and cavity layout required, other than 3D printing. Also as far as i know Shapeways are the cheapest provider of stainless printed material there is, so for now they're pretty much the only choice.

The Skeletool bit holder is a possibility as the side clip would help retain it, however it doesn't hold the bits in completely securely as they can be pulled out by hand even with the clip engaged.

I'm looking forward to this, might have to get me one for... wait I don't have a reason but then I don't need one. I really love this project.

Ah I seem to be reviving a dead thread here but -

These look amazing and I'd love one for my wave. Are there any still available to purchase or indeed to be made?  :D

I dont mind if I have to fettle a little with the charge model!  :)

I have to be honest - I'm part of many other forums for many other things (I'm a keen guitarist etc) and I've never known ingenuity and innovation like it!

Maybe send a PM to Tofty and ask him where these are currently at ?  In case he doesn't see this thread.
