Can anyone recommend where is the best place to purchase a Maxpedition EDC Organizer? I have all the stuff but no pouch to put them in.

Thanks.

My setup so far..

When the Pocket Wrench II arrives and I find my SS ruler, I feel pretty prepared for nearly
everything 'Urban Life' can throw at me..

Easy: P-51 can opener should you find yourself in the kitchen with a can and can't find a can opener in there.

Also, how about a proper listing of what all you have in there, while you're at it?

Good suggestion - it has surprised me just how many times I've used the ruler since I started EDCing it

Tajima 9mm Snap-Blade Knives, Gerber diamond sharpner, Stainless Sharpie, Pilot pen, Vic toothpick,
USB drive, Small BIC Lighter, LM Micra, Atwood Prybaby, Gerber Infinity Ultra torch and the Charter Member bit kit...

Also a notebook..

DaveK · **Reply #99 on:** February 07, 2010, 07:21:16 PM

The Pocket Wrench does have a ruler that will measure things up to, wait for it, a staggering 2 inches / 5 cm in length

Yay

I'm not sure if you knew that Allan - but it ain't actually that useful - lol.

I do have a separate stainless ruler (about 12-15 cm) somewhere and I'll add that as soon as i find it..

I'm still searching for a folding steel rule to fit in there. It's surprising, but there don't seem to be any about

There isn't Dave I've looked for weeks actually the marbles helper is kinda unique

BTW I decided to get a little Zippo rule it's tiny 36mm x 36mm x 10mm and measures upto 6 feet

DaveK · **Reply #103 on:** February 07, 2010, 07:44:03 PM

I was looking at the Zippos after someone mentioned them here the other day. They do look useful, but I'd definitely prefer a ruler if I can find one.

I haven't ruled out making one by cutting down a steel rule yet. It looks doable with a bit of patience maybe.

Sazabi · **Reply #104 on:** February 07, 2010, 07:48:24 PM

I'd thought I had already shown this, but I guess not: DealExtreme has two inexpensive stainless steel rulers available.

I'm happy with the helper rule for small measurements like flashlight dia,knife blades ect,but for the odd times you need to measure a cooker,table that kinda thing the zippo will be better served I'll just carry both

I think the zippo tape was my fault... I'm a gadget enabler

They are just really cute, and they don't evaporate when you don't use them

Those DX rulers look OK for $1.28

Just one of those 'Brits'

poking for the list, so I just wanted to make sure he saw it..

Gareth · **Reply #112 on:** February 08, 2010, 12:08:25 AM

Well I've found a folding steel ruler.

But someone need to want to buy the other 499.

That's a helluva minimum order

Gareth · **Reply #114 on:** February 08, 2010, 12:37:14 AM

Well here's another, although at 7 1/2" folded it may still be a little long.

DaveK · **Reply #115 on:** February 08, 2010, 01:01:40 AM

Yeah I saw the second one (a bit too big to be ideal) - the first one would be exactly what I was after.

Can't really see me buying 500 of them though
