Leatherman have forgotten/not got round to putting a couple of tools in their image library, the Knifeless Fuse, the Juice Pro, SC2 and KF4.

Cheers Bob :) The hard part now will be to get it so that it shows when the tool was stopped, and i'm still not sure how i'm going to do that, arrows going from the tool to the end of its life have been suggested but it gets a bit busy after a while :-\

Oh and it didn't take that long about 30mins from start to finish :)

Ugh. Yes that does sound challenging. Perhaps you should just revel in the glory of having gotten this far for the time being? :D

Found a suitable Knifeless Fuse pic here:



But all the pictures of discontinued Juices I can find are semi-folded.  :-\

With the Knifeless Fuse and the multitude of lines added in, not nicely spaced or lined up yet but you can see how busy it gets :o

Cheers :) It surprises me how many models they still have going, and you can see a big drop in 2004 as well.

The short purple line above the Squirt S4........right about top center......which tool does that relate to?

Lines laid out nice and neatly now, do you think they need to be different colours? And does it need names for the tools? If so where abouts?

I'd say yes - add the names! Maybe below each tool? Or vertically next to the tool?

Looking really good Roadie btw.
I used to come here a lot.

I'm thinking names directly below each tool as well.  And yes, maybe a 3 or 4 colours to make it a little easier to see.  :)

Looks great mate.  :)

Trouble with names below each tool would mean moving them all (at least some) up which would be a lot of work :-\
