Used my Spirit this afternoon to replace a gasket and fix a leaking tub faucet.

I don't post in this thread very often, but that's due to the fact that I use my MT so many times a day I simply cannot remember the specifics.  However I was working on this door lock and realised that I had laid out a pretty good shot.  I cannot tell you how much I don't like these locks. ::)

That takes me back!  I worked at a Resort hotel for nearly 5 years, and 3 of those years I was responsible for door lock maintenance in some way or another.  Those locks were a real PITA, but I did have fun using my multi's!

Fairly easy jobs today. Trimming hose, tightening jubilee clips, fishing loose screw out of gaps so floor panels would seat correctly and relocating big spiders

Not necessarily, I relocated them into the canal  >:D My usual technique is more percussive, but didn't want to ruin the interior woodwork  ;)

Nothing today,but yesterday,man,the upgraded KST got a major workout!

Had a Tamiya RC car come in with mislocated bearings,and ended up stripping and rebuilding it in under 40minutes :ahhh

No pressure then :D

We're in Hot Springs this weekend and were having snacks and beer at a brewery. The waitress told my daughter-in-law she had to wait for her lambic because she couldn't find a corkscrew and everyone at the table simultaneously said that I had a corkscrew on my Juice Pro :D Pretty funny, if I must say so myself. Juice Pro saves the day :D

Hey, we do that here.  It's one of the few post count increasing techniques for those of us that care about that sort of thing (like me, and stealth007s, and that fella named Mike with over 40,000 posts ;)).

As I stated in the Leatherman forum (  :D ) my pulse was used to tighten some drawer pulls while helping a friend move.

I also used my Wenger SI to cut a nylon strap during that same move.

The mrs made me so proud today. Not only did she use HER puck wrench to install a shelf on her desk but she took a picture doing it!¡! She has been doing an awesome job assembling an office full of IKEA furniture for our home office, I honestly did none of it (too stressful for me). :D :D :D Two desks, wall shelving, floor shelving, two chairs and other small stuff like lamps and such.

Maybe a bit of overkill, but I used the knife on my SOG PowerDuo to open my latest Netflix delivery - The Ghost and The Darkness.

Surprisingly good movie, BTW

I used my MUT to cut down a big pine tree. Ok, maybe "big" is a little bit of an exaggeration, but it was about 2" in diameter. The saw cut through it like butter.

Ooh and I used my Spartan to shave back some epoxy wood filler before it got too hard (will save me a bit of sanding at a later stage   ;)  )

Used Swisstool scissors for cutting up some leather to play around making a small sheath with. Cut it too small, so used the same scissors to do the job again.  ::) Cut it too small again and gave up for now ...
 :facepalm:

Used Wenger Ranger 14 for doing some tidying up in the garden - trimming back geraniums, lavender, lemon balm, cardoon and artichoke and getting rid completely of red veined sorrel, petunias, peppers and physalis (Cape Gooseberry). Also had to punch some drainage holes in the plastic tub I keep my gardening hand tools in

Used LM Style PS to open a beer
