My turn for some 111mm fun

[Syph007]

...
If all goes well I should be showing off the re-assembled 111mm shortly.

How shortly?










 

I had it mocked up fast, but there is a problem.  The phillips drivers each seem to take a bit more than their width in a layer, so the stock liners I was using dont quite work.  I need to shave some off where it rubs and try again.  Also I need to make a notch in the lock release for the cap lifter as its blocking the tab to flip out the long phillips.  It'll work though, just a few tweaks.

I always liked the Locksmith and after seeing this thread had to order a non-OH one Maybe I will put DD scales on it.

Robert, alox scales for 111 mm would be very, very nice. Even without parts mix between side lock and liner lock models. I like the side lock ones too, I do not see them less solid than their OH brothers - well, except the large flat screwdriver that's a big improvement for me on the later. The main blades are nice for me on both kinds.

[crackout]

Any news?

[Syph007]

Well I gotta use the alox scales I made up now, but still havent had a chance to get to it.

[Syph007]

Well a few years late but thanks to the pioneer x scissors I can finally finish this mod.   

This is just the mockup but its good to go and I just have to peen and put scales on.

My 111 mm mod is quite simmilar, with almost same tools, but with regular scissors 
And also with linerlock.

Noice!

[twiliter]

I´m going to try a simple "Sentinel Plus" with a blade and opener layer and no backside tools (or maybe the Awl only) as  a first try.

I knew I saw this idea somewhere! Thanks Lowtech! 

[lowtech]

I´m about as quick as Robert, though  - All I have is a stash of torn apart knives, spare scales and crazy ideas. 

[Syph007]

And... finally got around to assembling this.









I put a point on the blade as well as it drives me nuts the come blunt.

[SteveC]

ooh ! I like that one 

[HarleyXJGuy]

You still have my address Robert?

Hi Syph,

I've been thinking about this and wondering if this sort of thing may be feasible:

1. Start with a Vic Nomad or Centurion
2. Change the blade to a one handed opener
3. Put the scissors and Philips layer in between the blade and the opener layers.



Cheers

[lowtech]

you will loose the locking feature on the opener layer, but it will be doable.

[tattoosteve99]

A sentinel later would work for that. Only one locking point .

[Syph007]

Yup or you can bed the lock tab to be straight.  But my goal was to keep the locking feature which is why the scissors layer can't go there.

[lowtech]

you could use 2 lock liners maybe?!

[Syph007]

Tried that and it makes it a lot heavier.  They are thick steel liners.

Nice! is it possible to do a 111mm with the torx type screws you use in your other builds? what are those called exactly? and where do you get them? I've got some plans to do a 111mm pseudo alox build once I figure out what features I want.

I love my Trekker, kind of want different scales and scissors. Have thought about just getting a Hercules but want to keep it simple and OHO. 

[Steelshark]

@wonderwolf: I've been looking for 111mm Vic's with torx construction for a quite a while now, and I can't make them myself since I don't have the tools/shop (or the experience).

I guess parts can be had from > http://www.knifekits.com/vcom/index.php.
They have pivots and torx screws.

Any Idea you can put Cybertool into 111 mm?

[Syph007]

Any Idea you can put Cybertool into 111 mm?

The only way I can see that working is with a custom made backspring.  It's a very wide tool.

Yeah need custom made backspring 

[SAK Guy]

Awesome! What about a double backspring in that bay?

Added: ....with the sides sanded flat to mate perfectly side by side with no liner.  Like a double tool bay on a big 91mm in reverse.

Hi All,

Late last night, a rethink of this concept came to me...

1. Start with a Vic Nomad
2. Change the blade to a one handed opener
3. Put the scissors and Philips layer *in front of* the opener layer.

This would leave the awl in the middle of the back layers, but that should be OK. The access to the opener layer may be a bit tight, but hopefully still viable. If it could work... the ultimate three layer 111mm! ...

Cheers

I tried that but the oho blade is too far away to open with one hand.

Also I don't think the can opener would work.
