I used my blast to cut up some awesome beef jerky yesterday. I also dreamed last night that I used the saw on my blast to cut up some wood. I don't know why.

awesome dream.

It wasn't today, but most recently I used my wave to clear a couple FTE's on the range this weekend. Also helped setting up some targets!

walked into the local bagel shop this morning, and a screw in the door hinge fell out and right at my feet. Two seconds with the small screwdriver on the Farmer got the door fixed and me a free cup of coffee for fixing it

Nice fix!

Cap'n you'll appreciate this one. So I was getting ready for a tourney(hockey) over the Thanksgiving holiday. As I was in the process of removing/re-taping my sticks, I was using my Delica to remove some of the tape off. Well, next thing I know Delica slips off the handle and dive-bombed straight into my thumb. Once I got the bleeding to stop, this is what I saw.

That looks like it hurt quite a bit. Do you need stitches?

I did something similar with my sideclip awhile back, it took forever to heal.

Thanks for that, just what I needed to see at breakfast

Is the knife OK Jake?

Today was a pretty laid back day.... so far!
All I've done is use the fingernail file/nail cleaner on my Micra

Crunch for cracking hazlenuts

Used my brand new Juice S2 today, scissors only so far. Cut some packaging tape and cut out a coupon to Subway for lunch.

Yeah it stung quite a bit, for the first few days after i couldn't really any pressure on my thumb. Fortunately I didn't need stitches, I just used some Liquid band-aid and it was fine.

Luckily the knife came out of it just fine Sparky!

Used my Skele to pull apart a portion of a arm cast.

Dude, I saw FTE and thought you meant Full Time Equivalent Employees!!! That was a funny image.

#1 the pliers from the swisschamp to tighten a door knob

#2 swisschamp (various, mainly pliers) to remove coins from a kids music keyboard. My son had stuffed about two dozens of coins inside the keyboard

I'll post a picture later.

I used the awl on my vic pioneer to remove a glob of hardened filler in a hole on a reconditioned bumper today. I love that awl, it's the most useful tool!

captain spaulding · **Reply #2568 on:** December 21, 2011, 06:19:58 AM

Used the scissors on my Style PS to cut open the cloth on the inside of a arm cast and my Skeletool Pliers to pull out material packed inside.

Mercury · **Reply #2569 on:** December 21, 2011, 06:28:39 AM

Was it your cast?

Our snowboarding trip in Switzerland is unreal...5 days of constant snow...record snowfall here. Easily a foot or two o fresh powder everyday.

On the mountain.
TOOL: LM Wave
- change my binding setup (shifting it backwards) to allow more float in powder. (#3 phillips)
- at, lunch made my favourite sandwich. Cut open a bun with the serrated knife, add warm fries and mayo!

Back at the chalet:
TOOL: Vic Voyager Lite
- open two bottles of wine
- cut some thread for a sewing repair on my long jons
- used the Lite to make my way to the laundry room.

Then used the LM Wave blade to cut up some cardboard/kindling for the fireplace.

OK, it's all very cool that you guys use your multitools to open some bottles, fix a couple of screws, punch some holes and cut some cardboard, but who can honestly say he has fixed a high speed Thalys train?

Well, I can, and I have

I was travelling at 308kph (191mph) towards Paris a couple of days ago when an annoying sound reached my ears. A ventilation shaft cover was resonating wildly which made the otherwise extremely comfortable voyage a very unpleasant one.

So I grabbed my Victorinox CyberTool, took out the toothpick, stuck it between the grill and the windowsill and... all was nice and quiet again

Obviously, this was a short term fix since I took back the toothpick on arrival in Paris. I felt like a rolling stock engineer for a while. It felt great

Mercury · **Reply #2573 on:** December 21, 2011, 02:26:14 PM

Touche Captain!

Nice repair Reinier!

I just used my Wenger Cyclist to take of the protective plate off of my printer and short circuit it.

During my long walks in the dark I sometimes get hit in the face by small branches that overhang the sidewalk. That happened this morning, so I used the saw on my CS4 to do some trimming.

Yes, I use refilled toners and the printer doesn't register that there is a full to toner and keeps blinking empty, until I short circuit it. Then It resumes monitoring the true toner state.

I used my LM flair to nibble and open a bottle of wine!!!!

The bottle opener workedd very well.

The Coctail fork also worked very well, but because the Flair tools do not lock you must be carefull when you try to twist the fork or you try to get some food cut with the fork.

Took apart an old T.V with my surge.
