Used an awl to drill a hole for the anti-mosquito device installation





Later used pliers to get a can of beans off the fire and a carabiner to open a bottle of lemonade during our yesterday’s chilling session in the woods





P.S.: carabiner is a fantastic solution for bottle opening, but speaking of an awl I tend to like Vic version more for now, though it definitely does the job

Thanks, bud

Oh, and I forgot to share some user experience. I did use a blade on my Wave to accomplish the same task, which had been upgraded to 154cm and now I was hugely surprised by how much better and more convenient the blade of a Signal creates wood shavings to start a fire. It just slices through with almost zero force added and is a really comfortable in terms of grip.

Your last 'solution' was a fascinating one!  :D :cheers:

The toilet seat came loose again. Don't know why this one comes off so much. I'm about ready to break out the Loctite and/or safety wire. Used the medium driver on my Rebar to put it back. Also used the Phillips and the tool fully extended to help fish out the Victorinox Bantam that slipped out of my pocket last week; it had landed under the seat and gotten wedged.

One of my less popular fixes. Those modern plastic fixtures are nasty. I can never get them tight.  :facepalm:

Disassembled, cleaned and lubricated an old door lock at my mom's place today with a Signal. And Wave is so much better in terms of handling screws due to the way the bit holder can be used with a tool being nicely folded. I could have used a Wave, but decided to give Signal a shot. It's usable, yet not quite perfect if you have a choice  :multi:

P.S.: Oh, and I sure did assemble the lock back into place, though forgot to take any pictures of the process  :woohoo:

Hope you sterilised it first,
Great job, reminded me of a story I think I read on LMs site where someone insisted on cutting their newborns umbilical chord will h their multitool . :D now that’s dedication to the cause.
My trouble is i never show initiative, but that's only because no one has told me to.

Yup...why they changed I’ll never know. Still to find an early Wave...
