Feeling a little better and stronger. Gotta keep up with the pictures. Besides, that picture was taken by my front porch. So not to far to go.
Thanks for your thoughts and prayers.

Day EIGHTEEN
The large flat driver/prybar is uniquely suited to remove these fasteners on the underbelly of the wife's car. (Image removed from quote.)
:like:
In my line of work that is often the best screwdriver for the job.  Wera, Snap-on, Mac and other big name high ends just don't have one that fits right.
One of my favorite parts of the Swisstol.
It is funny how that often turns out to be the case. What I like about the photo is that it was not staged in any way. I had no idea that there was a belly shroud held in place by ?seven? of those quarter-turn fasteners and two phillips machine screws. I hadn't been under it before. The Swisstool just happened to be on my belt in case it was needed and it completed the task admirably.

Yes, the copper clip was good fun to make :cheers: It was something that I just thought of since the job I am on has several elements made from copper :tu: All I had to do was look for a bit of scrap lying around :D I originally planned to use something from the roofing copper material but I found a bit of 1/2 inch copper line just laying on the ground and used that which turned out much easier to use than the thinner roofing copper would have been  :like:

I found yesterday a small piece of 3/4 inch line and will now attempt to make a slighlty bigger suspension clip from it :salute:

The light was something I have been eyeballing since the copper light challenge a few months ago :facepalm: I had to have one after that ::) :D

Powernoodle Day 20


Nerd Alert.  Mrs. Powernoodle, my 16 year old son and I have started watching Star Wars Episodes 1-3 after a long hiatus.  The horrible acting aside (Natalie Portman and the talentless Hayden Christensen), I have a little trouble following the plot.  So I'm flowcharting the plot for easy understanding and remembery.

Not been to bad of a challenge  :tu: I have really had only the 1 complaint (tools hard to get out sometimes) but I do also miss not having a fully serrated  blade :think: Don't use one a lot but they are sure handy when I need one :cheers: Guess I need a different model perhaps ??? :D
