The Chronicles of Mr Blunt

[captain spaulding]

I didn't get it.

I had to pm detron and have him explain it .


 

    

You know whats funny is since the first time I saw your user name and still to this day I always say (J-Afro-Man) in my head. Don't know why. It's just been stuck with me since that's how I pronounced it in my head when you first joined.

I almost had to do it also. But then it hit me, like two by four...

Same here. Didn't get it, until JAfromMn admitted to PM'ing detron about it - and then it hit me too. xD

I think I'm going to change my name after I hit 5000 posts.   

[styx]

to what?

This could be interesting. 

[JAfromMn]

to what?

It will be something easy .

Probably just Ja

I've been using Mr Blunt on a few different things this weekend. 

The leatherman bit extension fits great on the Phillips driver. I used it on some torxs screws holding the tail light onto my wives minivan so I could put in some new bulbs.

The pliers I used to push the bulb holder back into place. I was using quite a bit of pressure and they did not unlock or close up on me.

The smallest driver makes a ok impromptu awl for drilling a few holes into plastic. I needed to reroute some wires on the vans lights and the driver made a decent hole in the hard placid bulb holders.

I pryed the bulb holder apart using the medium flat drive .  I had to use a lot of force to get it open and the driver did not bend or break in any way

I used it's file to clean up some electrical connection.  It works very well on the soft metal.


I should have gotten some pic but I was in a hurry to get going.

in Croatian that means I (well in some other Slavic languages too)

can you change it without losing your post count?   I have never thought about it, but that would be a shock "newbie" label on your account

[kkokkolis]

Ha! In Greek it means "bye" or "hi". We either use Ja or the Italian Adio but Ja literally means "health" (full form= Hygeia,  from that also Hygiene) so it is used as a greeting and when drinking alcohol (Ja mas= to our health).
So I would read it as a greeting and Germans/Dutch/Scandinavians as a "Yes". Better stay JAfromMn (that reminds me of saffron and saffron is GOOD).

you know it makes sense that you did not see what we were talking about.  you KNOW what your user name is.

you will always read it right, because you made it.

but some things play with our brains, because we know what to expect.

examples:


"I cdn'uolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg: the phaonmneel pweor of the hmuan mnid. Aoccdrnig to a rseearch taem at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae.

"I couldn't believe that I could actually understand what I was reading: the phenomenal power of the human mind. According to a research team at Cambridge University, it doesn't matter in what order the letters in a word are, the only important thing is that the first and last letter be in the right place. The rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without a problem. This is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself, but the word as a whole. Such a condition is appropriately called Typoglycemia.
"Amazing, huh? Yeah and you always thought spelling was important."

I have a dig bick                         <-----------did you mess this one up?

once you realize something that your brain has not realized, you notice it every thime



let me know how MAD you get after a few weeks when all you see on every sign is a house.
I had 300 college students furious at me for that one 

or this little funny one

Yeah I probably better just stick with the name I got.

it was supposed to be JAfromMN but I must have mistyped JAfromMn when I joined knife forums and I've just kept it.

I can't start my post count over again I don't know what I was thinking.   .

[sawman]

I think you should keep the name you have, there's nothing wrong with it

[JAfromMn]

I think you should keep the name you have, there's nothing wrong with it

I'm going to.

Ja is just so much easier to type lol

[detron]

I agree,

I knew what it was,  UNTIL CHAKO POINTED OUT OTHER OPTIONS   

[Chako]

Yes, I am like that. 

[detron]

Yes, I am like that. 

what gets me is that I did not see it!  I am usually the one who sees things like that early on.  I might miss the obvious stuff, but useless info, I acquire rapidly

[zoidberg]

Yes, I am like that.

Finished writing that book on me yet?

I've decided to try modding this mp600 with a few of the tools it's lacking. 

I'm going to do some research now it see what I can make work

 Sure il need help if you know any tips let me know

I've never disassemble a Gerber

[JAfromMn]

I think it's totally in the spirit of mto to mod this tool in the middle of its review.  It something isn't working change it.

[Monrogue]

Yup, go for it dude

[zoidberg]

It depends who this review is for really.
Sure, a few of us would love to see the thing hacked.
But I think a lot of those following are doing so to know the stock ability.

Your in luck. The Gerber's are pretty dang easy to take apart and put back together.

If I remember correctly when I took my MP600 Pro-Scout apart the only things to know are that only one side of the pivot screw turns (I think) and when putting the tools back together make sure the washers are placed correctly into the handle. The washers have little notches on them which must be placed into the little cut out into the handle.

I have a plan

I'm going to leave it stock until this review is over and do another review on it this winter after I've done some tool swapping.

Sorry I keep changing my mind.

[sawman]

I think you should use a Diesel for the parts but try and keep the awesome Phillips it already has

As for your plans to finish this one up with the stock version, I like that.

How badly do you have to have a black tool, Joel?

[JAfromMn]

How badly do you have to have a black tool, Joel?

Its not mandatory.  I just like testing the black oxide finish. 

I'm going to pm you
