Ah, a vehicle that you can still use a SAK to work on!   I could do 90 percent of my old VW's maintenance with my Huntsman.  I'd have killed for a Swisschamp in those days...

Day 24 of 60:


Took the Swiss Champ for a walk in the woods. No uses, unless one counts using the awl as a support for the photo shoot.   :dunno:





Back home, I felt I had earned a cup of tea. Once again the fish scaler was pressed into use to retrieve my bag o' Barry's from the murky depths of my mug. I know some people just leave the bag in the mug, but that just don't seen genteel-like to me.

I've used the fish scaler enough during this challenge for tea making purposes that I found myself wondering what I use when I'm in a challenge without a fish scaler. A spoon I guess, but that does require an extra two steps. And this is a challenge. And, besides, my legs were tired.

I'm more of a Thompson's Punjana tea man myself ... which I think is closer to McStitchy

So close, yet so far  :D

Day 24

Too many uses to list today. Started off raking hay with the Oliver. Broke fan belt in the first 15 minutes. Little John to the rescue. Planned on baling with Farmall h, but used the Massey Ferguson due to impending rain. 368 more small squares in the barn!

Champ small blade, scissors, pliers and both large flat and Phillips drivers were put to use. Maybe more, but can't remember :think:

Before this is over I'm going to have to try this "tea" stuff. I need to cut back on the coffee anyways, it's getting a bit spendy to brew 2 pots a day.
