Interesting. All UK Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) is done online so no "disc" is displayed. However, it doesn't cover insurance or any other legal requirements  :dunno:

yeah,we're a little behind here.
this is the vehicle license which registers the vehicle with the "Road Traffic Inspectorate"/vehicle licensing dept.insurance isn't compulsory,legally,here.
failure to register/renew [annual renewal] incurs penalties when renewing,and traffic fines if stopped or inspected.
we have to renew driver's licenses every five years.

Hey guys. I have to forfeit this challenge, family matters. I'm sorry. Life has gotten hectic and I don't have the time to take photos, post and keep up. It was a fun 18 days though! Good luck to all.

Did you modify that pen? It looks identical to mine, and I had to assemble it from two Zebra pens.

No mod, bought it like that. I think Zebra realized that a lot of people modded their pen to this state, and then manufactured it accordingly. It is all metal now, including the clicker mechanism  :tu: I bought another one the other day, just in case i lose this one. Best pen i have ever had  :like:

Hey guys. I have to forfeit this challenge, family matters. I'm sorry. Life has gotten hectic and I don't have the time to take photos, post and keep up. It was a fun 18 days though! Good luck to all.


Sorry for your troubles! Hope things settle down for you soon and with good outcomes.

Best wishes!

Trial run. I had to buy proper India ink. All I had was cartridge pen inks!

...

I haven't drawn anything with a Swiss Army Knife dipped in India ink in years, and back then it was with the small blade on a Huntsman or Climber or something. The large blade takes some getting used to. Next time I'll do pencils first so I can get something less janky out of it.




Hey, that looks pretty darned good for a knife sketch!  You've got some talent.

Might the awl work?   :think:

You know me... awlways trying to crunch numbers.  I looked through all the posts from Day 1 to date, and counted the number of times you awl reported a particular tool as used. 
- In some cases, you didn't explicitly say which tool you used, so I took my best guess on what you used (or could have used) Eg. the spine of the saw as a Ferro rod striker. 
- If you mentioned simple food prep, as many of you did, I counted that as the blade. 
- Some of you mentioned opening packages, and if you didn't say which tool you use, I gave to the one that you used for the same before; or if you showed the packages I chose based on which tool made sense to use (envelope vs box)
- some of you showed pictures of projects that you were working on, so I counted similar tasks as 1 use, but distinct tasks as separate uses.
- notably, explicit or implicit use of tweezers was mentioned twice.
- the saw was mentioned a a few times as "just for fun".  I counted each of those "scenarios" as one use.
- I only went through the thread once so there are probably a few errors
- halfway through I had to stop and open a packet of Gummy Bears (I wonder why  :think:).  I used the Champion scissors, because they are on my computer desk. 

So here it is:

Blade - 74
Scissors - 60
Awl - 35
Bottle opener/Large SD - 32
Can opener/Small SD - 19
Saw - 10

Hey, that looks pretty darned good for a knife sketch!  You've got some talent.

Might the awl work?   :think:

Thanks! I have no innate talent whatsoever, but practice sure helps.

Good question about the awl. I did try it, but the ink flows much better when I draw with a cutting edge.

Turns out pens are the real heroes, though!
