Douglas,

I'd shake your hand, but my arm isn't long enough to reach Texas. Your friendship is very much appreciated.  :cheers:


I may have gotten carried away with the engraving tool.....and chain. :facepalm:
But, nobody will have to ask, "is it yours, Douglas?" :)


Danni,
Your response was perfect! Thank you. Now to find Douglas a chain for his chain.  :rofl:

Now. One last thing. May I join you guys in the Rebar challenge?

I have the Breezy custom ReWave. It may not qualify as a "real" Rebar, but it could work for the modded tool challenge badge. :)

I'm good with it, has a lot of the same features as D_T's VX.
Between the two of you I think I will have to Mod one myself.
What say you, D_T?

Of couse, nice you can join us GLBM :tu: and thank you for helping Douglas out with his loss :2tu::cheers:

My VX is modded too but I have it on good authority ;) that I can participate nonetheless. I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to, particularly after you got this challenge back on track :salute:

(I also have the other one, which has made a few appearances and is stock as far as tool complement goes.)

Expectations are high though :D

GLBM my biggest  :hatsoff:  to you, and you made me laugh hard with that engraving  :like: :rofl:, you sure are a talented customiser  :D

IMO you can obviously join and do the Challenge  :salute: as long as it reads "Rebar" o the handle, and it's not written by you with an engraver  :whistle:

Why do people love the Rebar?  Maybe some people love rusty tools?

What's with the drive by cheap shot    :twak: :twak: :twak:

I pine for the days when  LM steel held up better. I have an old original Supertool old that's seen hard use; left  out in the rain, stored in damp garages, rarely oiled..and not a speck or rust on it. If the rebar had that same quality, I would love it.

That crate tool(giant flat blade driver) was one of my favorite things about the SwissTool challenge. :like:

Glad the Rebar came through at the end of the day though. :multi:

The big flat head on the Rebar is perfectly suited for the toilet paper dispensers at work. It fits the opening slot perfectly. Oh, and it works well for a lot of antique flat head screws. :)

Day 14

A loose screw whose hexagonal head was easy prey to the Rebar's pliers...

Day 2:
Made a hanger for a primitive hall tree (someone else built) and put the decorative bolts in with the pliers.

Wow... didn’t know there was a Rebar Challenge going on... Good luck to all participants... Hope I can consistently chime in here...

One thing I like about the Rebar is its compact size that allows for pocket carry...
