I'm curious that's for sure. I don't think that the Sidekick parts are all that great so  :popcorn:

Unless you are adding lever locks somehow  :think:

 :D An unlocking lever it is.

I always had a love and hate relationship with the OG ST. Absolutely love the look and implements. I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT like the locking mechanism on it. I think its the dumbest $"^% in the MT world.. 





This 2 levers are the file and the giant flathead from a wingman, after some modification of course. Notice near the pivot area there's a bump. They are the original God sent long nail nicks, grounded down to be a rocker to unlatch the Supertool's super secure lock.  ;)


To fully close the handles, both 2nd tool (from right) on opposite side of handles have to be recessed to allow the lever to go in. This also gives it added strength during heavy torque on the screwdrivers as the handles are locked in place. Wobbly handles no more.  :whistle:


So here you go. Another irritating problem solved.

 :D I took out the can opener and the saw. I originally wanted to leave the saw in as its a good one, but I have never ever have a need for a wood saw in my environment. So that went.

Yeah. Idea from the TT. Remember I broke one apart recently. That's how lessons are learnt eh. I think Bears uses the same method. Though I never had the chance to use one.

The lever looks obtrusive but it really doesn't feel that way when it is held in the hand.

Great video Sam :like: :like: It is a very nice way to unlock the OGST :cheers: and similar to the way Bear and Son accomplished this but I like the way you executed it. It seems better than what they did because your lock release isn't in the way :salute: :like: :like:
