Idea: can you replace the L in the text with an S and an H?


I like how it reads Leather from this angle.

It is (Indiana) limestone setting drawings :cheers: Each page has a letter and then all the pieces are individually numbered :tu: We get different sections sent out as we need them and then they get put in the wall at that spot :salute:

i am intrigued by that Poncho.
If I remember correctly all files are hardened in a different way to all other implements, to be harder and more rigid so as to scrape stuff and wear out softer metals and steels.  :think:

I also think to remember that many people broke their files (especially SOG files) by lightly prying with them or trying to drive a screw. You know, too hard steel = too brittle steel so I bet you wouldn't be able to put much force there (if any) to torque or spin without seriously risking breaking it.
At very low forces and pressures it should break if it's similar to any other multitool's file, right?  ???

Somebody please correct me?  :tu:

You are correct TP, I would be careful putting any torque on that small file as well.

I have used it a few times without problem but I never over torque it (I won't use it on a stubborn screw at all ;) ) but if I do then I guess I will have a broken file :facepalm: :D For as much utility as it adds I am willing to use it if I have to though :salute:

Guess I need to put a disclaimer on my pics like that :think: :D

new owner thanks to  our dear friend jcs0001 in Canada
he sent me a MINI!  :ahhh
It's probably the only LM I have never had/handled and still was curious about. No more!



he also added a custom fit leather slip/pouch for it!  :o 



now I know what full size tool will be with me on dressy clothes, when sheaths and belt pouches are inappropritate
It's a tight and perfect fit for the coin pocket!  :)



this and the ZT will allow me to carry truly capable tools in a discreet way,  :tu: and the two have been gifts from our awesome members here   :hatsoff:

I have found the Mini fits great in a Wave sheath if you leave the handles unfolded.




Of course then it’s not such a small, tidy package.

Another possibility....
 
I have this old leather pouch from an Arkansas Diamond Stone I lost a long time ago.






I just need to get a split ring on the Mini and attach a small lanyard to make it easier to get out of the slip sheath.


For now a small S biner will have to work...







UPDATE....

Well, I didn’t like the split ring setup. The ring seemed to get in the way. So for now I just stuck this small cord around the shaft the extended handle folds on, on the file side.





It doesn’t get in the way at all and gives me something to grab to pull the Mini out of the slip.

We’ll see how it goes, IF I even carry it!  Haha
