Day 16


Scissors again! Cutting zip ties this time..
And removing some crud from a valve with the driver pry thing which was stopping it closing all the way.

Wow Jay, that's a valve?  :o
What kinda machinery are we looking at if I may ask?

Great action shots  :tu:

That one's on a system refining wood pulp for use in the manufacture of filter sheets.
The technical dept. had done a trial and blocked the system completely, it took me two days to clear it!!
The picture is of the actual refiner when I'd opened it up!

The spirit weighs about 2/3 the weight of the Workchamp XL. That monster is too much for EDC.

The spirit is also much more compact. It's not as wide.

Here are some pics for comparison. Workchamp XL vs. Swisstool Spirit Plus

Solving problems you didn't know you had in the most obscure way possible

"And now, it's time to hand this over to our tame race axe driver. Some say, he can live in the forest for six months at a time without food, and he knows of a secret tribe of only women where he is their God. All we know is, he's call the Styx!" - TazzieRob

In other news, I ended up eating the tangerine first. It was a tad reluctant to shed its jacket - I had to use the Black Persuader only a teensy bit >:D

day 17 - pliers saw a lot of action today. mostly for extracting things that have been wedged where they shouldn't have. gotta say that today's combo is quickly becoming one of my favorite
