FSOT Atwood Wingnut

I have a brand new Atwood wingnut that I just bought, but it was kind of an impulse buy and I don't think I'll ever use it. I would like to trade it for something I will use. PM me with offers, I am not extremely particular, but key items that will take the cake are: Maxped regular Fatboy(any color except khaki), Leatherman ST300, Stainless PE spiderco knives, and pretty much any Maxped bag of reasonable size. I think the Lunada and malaga look pretty cool, and I have never tried them.

I think the tool is worth around $70 USD, but I will sell it for $65 shipped CONUS.

I was hoping to snag a Wingnut, would come in use for somethings

I do have an ST300, needs to be cleaned up a little bit. You know, some flitz to make her shine again

She is a tough tool, she tears through bailing wire at work like nobody's business.

Uuugggghhhh such an inner struggle. I want the wingnut so bad it hurts yet the ST300 is such a bad ass tool

It's my tool for what odd jobs show up at work and it never lets me down, decisions decisions.

Could you send some pics of the ST300? I am not a collector so it's gonna get used anyway. BTW, I know the struggle, luckily my permanent (if a multi can be) back up multi is my blast. I have put this thing through hell and I have yet to find a more perfect model for me to carry. I will always own one.

The ST300 is about new, I have only used it like 5 times or so. Yea I can get pics but it probably won't be till later tonight. It's a great tool but..... I can't carry it cause it's too heavy for what I consider an EDC tool. It is a beautiful piece of engineering though. I really think I am going to trade it to you if your going to be interested after the pics.

Sounds good to me. I can get the wingnut out tomorrow morning if you decide you want to trade. Like I said above, it is brand new without a mark on it. I tested the fit on a 9/16 bolt and turned it once just to get a feel for it.

David Bowen · **Reply #9 on:** May 15, 2010, 01:18:20 AM

Have not cleaned her of finger prints of nothing

I will get it looking nice even though your going to use it hard anyways.

Mercury · **Reply #10 on:** May 15, 2010, 02:06:43 AM

Deal! Thank you sir, pm sent for address information.

Cool - I love watching people's deals unfold. It's a kind of voyeurism I guess, but it's definitely interesting to watch

David Bowen · **Reply #12 on:** May 15, 2010, 02:11:01 AM

It's so ironic cause GG and I were just talking and I mentioned how I wanted a WingNut and how I was disappointed when it got snatched up. Interesting how things unfold indeed!

I guess it's lucky that I'm so impulsive! I was tossing around the idea of a ST300 when I ordered my Powerlock on tuesday. I wanted both but didn't have the cash for both. Thanks for the trade David!

Good one guys..

I love happy endings..

David Bowen · **Reply #15 on:** May 15, 2010, 03:56:16 PM

I just put my Powerlock 2.0 into duty where the ST300 went, would like to see how it performs more anyways.

Mercury · **Reply #16 on:** May 15, 2010, 05:24:16 PM

I am thoroughly enjoying my new Powerlock, and I can't wait to try the ST300. BTW, your wingnut is in the mail, enjoy!

And this post is simply to get my number of posts to bump off 666.

David Bowen · **Reply #20 on:** May 16, 2010, 02:53:59 PM

I used my PL2.0 to fix a broken plug on one of the mart carts at work yesterday. It did a darn good job with unscrewing, cutting wiring and even splicing to reattach stuff. I think some alone time with the 2.0 is all I need to see is a great tool. 666? The mark of the beast? I would rather not go there

Mercury · **Reply #21 on:** May 16, 2010, 05:36:04 PM

Yea, I used my PL to fix a digital safe at the Hotel yesterday. It tore through the job with ease. It really is a great tool. I am starting to thing that it will be on a constant rotation with the ST300, as I really see myself using it a lot. BTW, my PL came with the old plier head, old locks, and gear covers. This was the new one that Amazon stocks. I guess they are behind the times? I think I like it better with the old locks, the Piano locks look to hard to operate.
