P4 to open some Czech Budweiser.  Frankly as a bottle opener it is pretty carp, but just about gets the job done. ::)

I used my pulse to disassemble my 22 rifle for a nice long cleaning session.  Worked like a charm.

 I used my Core to tighten an air hose nozzle coming off an air line trigger valve at a gas station this morning. The attendant came out to assist another customer and yelled "Hey, what are you doing?!"  I said I was fixing the air hose. He walked over and we talked multi-tools for a for minute. I put some air in my front tires and left. I was kinda late for work  ;)

 I got a Marlin Model 60 semi-auto, what do you have?

Same one.  It's my favorite gun.  Easy to shoot, easy to clean.  But more importantly, it's fun to shoot!  We go hog hunting here in texas and a .22 longrifle hollowpoint does the trick if it's well placed.

I used my Skeletool CX to open some packaging.  I really like the 154cm blade, it holds a great edge!   :D

I used the diamond file on my Pulse to remove some small ridges off the wirecutters of my Blast and Wave.  They came with a little too much contact in the box so I had to even them out.  Smooth as butter now.

Once again, we were cruising down the interstate when some more of that damn plastic under moulding of the car started flapping like crazy and making a horrible noise...  We pulled over at a rest stop, where I used my Skeletool CX to cut the 1-foot piece of plastic off so it wouldn't get tangled up in the wheel.  It cut like butter and the edge is still razor sharp.   :D

Nice one edcgear! Everyone else... get a camera  :pok:

Used my PS4 and c33l + the PS4's microbits to open up my ITP A3 EOS. It's been unstable from the start, flickring and cutting out, before finally going dark for good. Thought I'd open it and see if it was just a quick fix, and it was a wire that needed to be soldered back in place

I worked on fixing some porch columns yesterday. I used the blade on my Skeletool CX to remove old latex caulk/sealant and the flat bit to open a can of paint. I used the saw in my Spirit X to cut some small sections of wood that I was replacing.

I used my skeletool CX to open up the mail which included my brand new Charge ALX and MTO watch from Zed.  :D   I used the small screwdriver on my ALX to adjust the metal watch band to the correct size.  I also used my Style CS scissors to cut the tags off a new pair of Crocs.

I guess page 107 deserves some pics as well... This thread is the perfect example of why the (not so) old term "pics or it didn't happen" was invented  :P



Anyways, Gamestop had a used Game Boy Advance for sale a couple of weeks back, so I picked it up. There was no charger and a scratched casing, so I bought a charger, replacement casing plus a special tri-wing screwdriver from DealExtreme. The package arrived today and the PS4 helped switch over internals.

I loved my old GBA SP.
Anywho, I just used the mini-driver from my Swisschamp to push the scissor spring out of my CT-34, and used the Skeletool CX pliers to press the spring into the Swisschamp's pliers replacing my broken spring. Gotta love using a broken multitool to remove parts from a good multitool to fix itself, with assistance from a third multitool lol.

Used the screwdriver on my Victorinox Spirit X to replace all the broken latches and hinges on a couple of 100qt coolers that my son's middle school band uses on trips.

I used the blade on my wave to scrape some hard water residue that has been stuck on my faucet for a while now.  It finally drove me nuts and I attacked it.  Much to my surprise, the wave's blade dulled very little and just needed a light touch up afterwards.  I also used the blade on my pulse to cut some really stubborn plastic stripping today, pleasantly surprised there as well.  I pushed it to the max and you can't even tell.
