Used my skeletool cx at work as a paperweight.  :-[

That's not a paperweight... a SURGE! can be a paperweight :P



That's not a knife, THIS is a knife!
That's not a knife, that's a spoon...
I see you have played knifey-spoony before!
 :D :rofl:

Be excellent to each other and always know where your towel is.

I have got to stop reading these posts.  I keep ordering stuff!  Every time I see pics like that, my order list gets longer. 

Nice pics Zed!  How is the ST300 overall?  Does it feel clumsy or is it pretty easy to use?

I think my wife will leave me if I order another tool this paycheck.  I have a Charge ALX coming in tonight, and that will have to last me at least a week!  I think I also have a Vic climber, two Vic classics, and my Vic custom coming from Rotokid today.  She doesn't understand, I NEED that ST300!

I've used the philips screwdriver and the cap-lifter/prying tool of my Victorinox Spirit to make a hole in a... piggy bank. And the file to make it a little more round and smooth.

A.

PS Uh... shall I state that it was MY piggy bank? Just to avoid confusion. I haven't stole money from some kid's piggy bank. I stole it from mine. :angel:

Don't judge a book by its cover, I'm addicted to MT's! :ahhh :D

PS 6.50 euros in the piggy bank, for the record. And I bought it a year ago! And we don't even have a child!!!
Where does all the money go?

Legal again :D

To be fair - it was on my drive!

I'd definitely recommend a Freelander - it's exceeded my expectations in the 14 months I've had it. I'm lusting after a Range Rover atm though  :drool:

Opened up a couple of packets of drink mix, a bag of energy chewy things with my red farmer (Kim saw what I'd done to the blue one and made me put it up) :D

I tested out my new Wave on my front door latch, I opened a pack of cookies with it's wicked sharp blade, and I used the pliers in the closed position to work the leather on it's sheath so that I can wear it horizontally.  I am kinda pudgy  :P in the gut area and it really is more comfortable with the newer LM sheaths that sit higher.

Skeletool CX again.. helped me make a belt for myself using nylon cord and a youtube video by TIAT. Though I had to join 3 pieces of cord together and made the thing look butt ugly.  :-[

Attempted to remove a screw from my car tire with the Leatherman Core I keep stored in the glovebox. Upon hearing the hiss of air, I immediately stopped the process and drove to the local STS tire store to get it patched.

Thought I could get away with removal since car is pretty new, but I got "screwed" (Insert groan here)

At least it was patchable :tu:  You can bet whenever I get something stuck in my tire its too near the edge and I need a new one :(
I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

LEGO!

I was playing with some bricks I got from the LEGO stare today, and discovered that the Blast is the perfect LEGO dis-assembly tool.  The pliers break apart bricks when they're stuck down to a plate.  The smaller flat head screwdriver is great for breaking chunks of bricks apart in your hand.  The only thing I didn't use the Blast for, because I only had my c301 out at the time, was slicing open the tape on the Pick-A-Brick cups, and had I had the Blast out, it's knife would have done as well.

So, I used my Blast and c301 today to play with LEGO.  :D

Used my farmer to cut up a pair of pants...no particular reason.  Just wanted to.  :)  No, it was a pair of scrub pants that had gotten worn out and holey, so I cut the legs to make them into sleep shorts.  :)
