Of course the wife might look at me funny if she sees me taking pics of my MTs/SAKs in action ::)
Believe me, you wouldn't be the first one here to have their partner give funny looks for posting MT & SAK pics!  My wife just shakes her head and says oh dear.  :D

My mother's boot zipper broke right when we were leaving, so she had no way to pull it up... and guess what? The pliers of the LM PS4 did an awesome job in pulling the zipper up!

You can't get it out of my mind, there are secret schools where all wives go and they all learn the same strange behaviors... :D

My chip clip broke.  :(  Fortunately my Wave with a pocket clip was handy.  :)  I wonder if Tim Leatherman ever envisioned this use.....

I've used the small knife on the Explorer, and the knife and awl on the Pioneer to open various boxes here at work.  I'm not a huge fan of having the small knife when it could be replaced with something else, but it does work very well for box opening due to its size :tu:

Oddly enough, nothing at all. But then we had a lot of down time today while a client decided whether they actually wanted to keep their cargo or not.  ::)

Last couple of days...

Opened a new China made $6 dirt cheap netbook ac charger that was making a clicking noise like a screw was loose and moving inside before plugging it for the first time. It was a broken small piece of solder which is now removed and the charger is working fine without blowing or setting my house on fire, yet :D (used a pocket pry tool to open it and some gorilla tape to keep it closed).

Changed batteries to my UPS (used Leatherman Skeletool CX).

Created a pc-power-cable-female to multi-socket-station so I can plug normal cables "on" the UPS (used Leatherman Juice S2 and Sanrenmu 763).

Opened a new cashew nuts bag :D (Vic Cadet) .

I prefer tin beer cans, so, no tool needed for that  :D

I almost changed a ceiling light fixture with an ST300, then I remembered that the circuit wasn't shut off, so I had to grab something with a plastic handle for the wires.
