excellent work, DT! I am just now seeing this thread for the first time, and I am thoroughly impressed. one question about the solution you came up with for the small bit driver... does it rotate around the pivot at all, or does it stay in place pretty well? it almost looks like the tool might benefit from a similar shaped block on the other pivot as well to hold it in place when the straight edges line up.

The small bit driver sits pretty tight. You'd have to use more force than you'd likely use on a small screw to pivot it. But the counterblock is a good idea... I have a washer there, ground off to face the handle slope to inhibit rotation on that side.
Blave with Mini Bits Thank Boss

I wanted it smaller, compact and fixed - on the few occasions I'll likely be using the small driver, I'll get it out of the bit card and insert it in the ST.Sent on my SM-G930F with Tapatalk

I will add mini bits infront like ur ST300VX and add another Knife on it. muahahahaha MORE DEADLY
Or Marlins Spike
Yet more versatility added. Inspired by a post I read somewhere here in which someone added tweezers and toothpick in scales added to a Wave or Charge I decided to design scales for the ST 300 VX and fire up my trusty 3D printer.The scales are, for now, of ABS and stuck to the handles with automotive grade double sided tape. Depending on experiences gained I may convert the material and the fixing method as needed. Shapeways does pretty nifty metal 3D printing jobs, so that is a possible option.I have added the scales on both handles so I have some empty slots, which I plan to fill with Firefly ferro rods once they are brought out.(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)Sent on my SM-G930F with Tapatalk

Only fits the ST 300 (alignment ridges fall into the handle spring slots) and the rough print requires a bit of filing and sanding to make it fit...Sent on my SM-G930F with Tapatalk
