Day 11

Note to shelf: Measure both dimensions.

Thankfully, the Spirit has a saw, perfect for Do-It-Yourshelf tasks like this. Mark, remove, cut, fit.

Done. And if I dare say so myshelf, not too shabby.

Nice strait cut..

A hint for the feature. I learned the hard way, deeply score the formica with the corner of the chisel before cutting with the saw to prevent chipping.
(chisel just keeps coming up)
Now tell me how to imbed pictures in my post's like that.

ReamerPunch · **Reply #361 on:** January 10, 2018, 04:02:18 AM

Yeah, I kinda mangled the edge a bit. Nice tip with the chisel, I'll do that.

Just quote my post to see the code. I uploaded the pics to imgur, copy/pasted the code, and just used the spoiler tag.

Douglas · **Reply #362 on:** January 10, 2018, 04:10:54 AM

Thanks R P.
I can't begin to tell you how many times I delt with chips like that. It wasn't untill I bought a formica scoring tool to cut formica to put on a counter top that I realized my Spirit already had one on it. Just cost me an extra $60.00 I didn't need to spend.

Day 12:
Still early.

My coworker and I started our shift at 5h45am for a job 70km from our homes.
Been driving for 1h35min already and only little over half way because of huge traffic jams

Is today day 1? I've lost track! It'll do for me, anyway. Got my BO X with me today - used it to fix a broken sing plug chain:

Day 11

Removing the last of my office xmas decorations. Twisted off the tie wraps (and a couple of the sticky bases) to remove the rope light from around my desk at work.

I've messed up on my days, this one yesterday should have been day 10 for me

Kev D · **Reply #371 on:** January 10, 2018, 12:37:38 PM

Day 11

In the office all day today so just a day of polishing my tools

Went for a walk in the woods.

no match for the Spirit

gerleatherberman · **Reply #376 on:** January 10, 2018, 05:09:28 PM

Gerleatherberman day 1.

Putting up a display pole with screws.

Nix · **Reply #377 on:** January 10, 2018, 06:19:36 PM

Day 12:

It's good to see all the other Spirit challenge participants showing up now.

It's been a good thread so far, and it'll be more fun with a few extra guys.
And Happy Birthday, Douglas!

Light snow last night and more snow today. So that makes it a great day for my famous Leftovers Chili! Used the Spirit can opener to get into a can of tomatoes. Victorinox's can opener is still my favorite.

Day 13

Used the Flathead to open some paint.

kottskrapa · **Reply #382 on:** January 10, 2018, 07:57:51 PM

Day 1

Adjusted the clasps on my lunchbox so they are nice and stiff again.

The pliers have for some reason started to be really stiff and I can't remember it been like that from the start, just this past week of pre challenge getting to know fase.. Will se how it goes

[It's not failure if you learn something from it]

Poncho65 · **Reply #383 on:** January 11, 2018, 12:27:10 AM

Great stuff today

Glad to see the new faces as well

Douglas · **Reply #384 on:** January 11, 2018, 12:43:54 AM

DAY 1
Just lining things up.

Poncho65 · **Reply #385 on:** January 11, 2018, 01:03:33 AM

Day 13 of 30

Not much use today for pliers

So just a beauty shot

Nix · **Reply #386 on:** January 11, 2018, 01:19:44 AM

Poncho, with the Spirit, beauty shots seem fairly easy. It's a looker, with curves in all the right places. I gotta say, this is one sweet multitool.

Despite what Pooper says, the SwissTool is very real and very nice.

Nix · **Reply #388 on:** January 11, 2018, 01:51:17 AM

Confession time: It's only been a couple weeks now, but I'm starting to miss having a SAK in my pocket. The Spirit has done everything I need (and been ready for more), but I really like having a pocket knife....in my pocket. A straight-up pliers based multitool will never replace a pocket knife for me. I gots no explanation for that, just the way I'm made. $:-\$
