Looks great! I’ll have to give it a go if (when, surely!?) I get a silver spirit or SwissTool..... :like: :iagree:

March 02:


No uses, but I was pleased to find that the Swisstool carried easily in the front pocket of some Carhart trousers. I had thought that I'd need to use the sheath for this challenge....but...I may try to go 'pocket carry' for a bit.

Day 2

Use the swisstool to put up the fence against the little one's bed.  I haven't used my swisstool in ages, almost forgotten how it felt.  There are some mild edges felt on the chassis, as you rotate the tool for the phillips use.  It might be even more ergonomic if they are more chamfered.

Day 3 - Laid up with a heavy cold at the moment so not much opportunity to use the Spirit, but I am catching up with my reading:

Bright Red nail polish. Put it on quite thick, let it dry overnight and clean the excess off with nail polish remover.

I think the red looks fantastic and accentuate the shield perfectly.

Pete

That looks great! Is it pretty durable or does it wear off quickly?

Day 2

Time for a cable refresh on my road bike, needs speSmurfpillsed tools which I’ve accumulated over the years, but still a use for the Spirit XBS, crimping cable caps! Was going to head out, but it’s decided to pelt down! :facepalm:

Ps Mags - isn’t this day 2 not 3!?

Never say no to Vim.  :cheers:

Not even sucking them, I’m crunching them one after another.

Day 2

Cut up some old phone cord to support my tomatoes.  I think the Swiss Tool could use a longer wire cutting edge.

Day 2 :

Hotel bathroom door knob was more wiggly than what I could bear.
So, I HAD to fix it.

Big F[l]at [screwdriver] to the rescue .. with a POV Pr0n-like picture  :dnft:

Mags, I hear you - there’s plenty of colds going round sadly! Get well soon, if Fuzz leaves you any cough sweets, that is!! :tu:

Good uses everyone! :salute:

Day 2 - I was going out to get some firewood and some kindling but my axe needed a touch up and my sharpening puck was still in the house so I gave it a try with my spirit file. Not like the stone but enough for tonight
