Have someone wanting me to build a Yeoman. Any tips combining a Compact & Explorer? Should be a simple rebuild and I should be able to reuse the Explorer’s rods? Seems a common mod?

The Yeoman is my favorite SAK.  I have both a factory one with WWP scales and a Syph made one.

That's what I thought too and did here...

I've used new rods though as I knew I would probably screw some up being my first SAK mod ever  :D

Syph does awesome work

The other are the Adaptive Sports scales which I love and have a special place for me.  I have a brother who is handicap, not due to a war injury, but in a wheelchair due to severe cerebral palsy.  I have seen how different adaptive items have been used and how happy he was while doing different activites.

The Syph one sure is nice! Great colors. I can see it being the favorite SAK to have.  :tu: :cheers:

The timascus came out amazing.

Great family time!  :cheers:

A local medical supply store rented different styles for fairly cheap.  Some beaches
Provide them for free on first come first serve.  Not all float but can at least go in sand and partly in water.

Excellent!  :D I'm always heartened to see adaptive tech being used  :tu:

It is great some of the stuff they have now - all styles of bicycles, assisted skiing.  My brother has even gone zip-lining at a special camp started by Paul Newman.

Here’s my first Yeoman-mod build. For a customer, but I plan to build a Yeoman WS for myself next.

Was a fun build...shame it’s going to a new home. But I get to keep the Explorer parts which is a bonus.

I took a few pics of the build which I’ll post next.

Thanks Matt  :hatsoff:

I wanted to reuse the bushings and the rods from the Explorer, so took extra-care drilling these out. Used 2mm bit and this little grinding tool on a Dremel to remove 90% of the ‘captured’ rod end, and then drifted the rod out with some gentle taps. Last pic shows my peening efforts (not very pretty).  :facepalm:

A box of bits...this is the Compact deconstructed. Then Explorer and Compact laid out with the final build order set out.

Planning a Yeoman WS mod next...for myself.  :tu:
