Also received a custom Victorinox SwissChamp with transparent scales. Really like this to show off internal mechanisms in action.

Yes and no, we bought that firepit back with the house, and the blocks were already here. The blocks can be anywhere between $1-3 each and those fire pits are anywhere between $50-300, of course you could use a large semi truck wheel like they use at camps for free-$20.. so it’s just more or less what you can find for what price, that setup I only paid for the pit I think was $75

No this guy is named Carlos from Portugal. Does amazing work and is super reasonable as far as price.

Had a little chance to stop in a harbor freight, and well, you don’t come out empty handed! So here’s what I snatched up,
Always good to have some glue on hand,
That socket thingy looked interesting for those quick loose nuts,
I bought that key knife for someone who’s a knife/tool freak,
The razor blades, well, a must have!
Ive been wanting one of those engravers for a while, especially a Dremel one but too pricy, but that one somehow fell into my basket :whistle:
That light switch was a must have, I don’t have light in a closet and need something and I must say that is freaking bright!
And lastly a cooling towel, it’s not a mission but with summer weather maybe coming I need something, I took it out and it feels funky but I draped it over my head and it’s cold! Now your suppose to run it under cold weather then ring it out and then enjoy, then when done wet it up, ring it, then throw it in the freezer for next time? I guess I’ll have too see, I just needed something to cover the back of the neck..

Wenger shop display finally arrived yesterday, this was the last outstanding one I was waiting for....then as luck would have it I spotted yet another late last night so I'm now gonna wait for that to arrive too. There's a few more in the pipeline but it's not yet been confirmed.

I forget now how many Wenger shop displays I have...8 or 9 plus a dozen or so Wenger shop knife stands

Hopefully the big show off will soon commence....hopefully.

Technician's Pocket Screw Driver (4 driver heads: reversable PH00 and 1.5 slotted; PH1 and  3.0 slotted) with magnetic cap
Gerber shard --- because I knew I'd have to try one someday (I think it's an original as it has a serial number 8970117A on the back, and sharp PH head)
Kershaw PT-2 --- this is what I wanted, but the other stuff just jumped into my cart.....
Field Notes notepads (for the Mrs)

Ah... I was looking at that screwdriver a few weeks ago, I was quite tempted to get one. What do you think, are they good? Oh, and field notes...  :like:

I wanted the black version of the Technician's Pocket Screw Driver but selected the wrong one --- but the gold/brass colour looks OK. 

The driver heads are not standard 4mm or 5mm hex.  Not sure exactly what type they are, if I need replacements or spares or other sizes/types.  The screwdriver body is aluminium I think, as it does not stick to the magnet in the clip head. The internal bit drivers were greased, and the whole unit feels 'machined'.  The magnetic cap is engraved  "CAGE: 5VKB6 U.S."  I think there are plastic versions, and I think Stanley do something similar?

So far I have only tightened up the small screws on my glasses.  I think for relatively light work this would be a useful screwdriver to have on hand.  YMMV.  But I think I like it, and it may go in my day-to-day office work bag.

Got a freebie in the mail today
A bit holder that is double sided so it's faster/easier to change bits and you can change bits in the round holder, don't know if it's any good but it feels sturdy
