To cut the old ferrule off my walking stick to fit a new one. Our cleaner at work has polished the floors and it's highlighted how worn my ferrule was.  Good job I keep a couple in my desk.

I used the saw in my Spirit to quickly cut a piece of bamboo so I could reach and retrieve something that had fallen on the wrong side of a fence. :facepalm:  Just 3 pulls on the excellent Victorinox saw and I was through 1/2 inch of dry bamboo. :salute:

Used a ST300 to tightem a bolt on a chickem feeder. Used the knife blade to remove a very stubborn bandaid from my finger. Rather boring day.

Cutting large cable ties to length. They will be used for flexible, underwater marking stakes... sounds weird, I know.
Here is one

Me and my kid entered his schools 2K fun run event partly sponsored by WWF... Some piece if plastic got caught in the zipper of my Camelbak Rogue as I was trying to stash my mobile phone... The Style PS pliers solved that...

Didn't have time to take pics as the event was just about to start... :cheers:

Used the rebar to remove the belt loop and pin off the sync II as it's getting carried clipped to a bag.

Then used the sync II to snip off the excess end off tie wraps, mainly just to see what the cutters are like. The first few cuts were crappy, it didn't snip them off, it left them hanging by the tiniest bit, but after a few cuts it started cutting right through. Must have been a burr or excess coating or something it needed to get rid of as they are good now.

Hung some gutters for my dad. Used my Skeletool's blade (back side) to scrape the aluminum from the cuts.

Also used my Skeletool pliers to hold the valve stems on my scooter tires to pump them up.

To sharpen a pencil and to cut open the seal on a new pack on pain killers. Feeling much better now they are kicking in

dishwasher was on the blink - sorted it, but needed to cut the drain pipe for the waste hose, used my wave saw for the job, worked nicely, especially as i couldn't have got in with a hacksaw space was too cramped :) no pics, sorry

Used a sak to screw open an electric fan. It's interesting how a lot of dirt gets accumulated there.

A friend asked for my help to fix his vintage Wenger scissors. It was missing the spring. Repurposed a broken 91mm scissor spring for this... used the spirit's wire cutters to cut it into size... initially used the wave, but spring just slipped and jammed in between its cutters...

The spring needed:
