15 or 30 days of Crunch
on: March 30, 2022, 09:10:34 PM
Since we are holding off on a Juice challenge, I need something to do... I think I'm going to work on a Crunch badge.  There are 2 versions of the badge, one for 15 days and another for 30 days.  I'm going to work on the 30 day, but I reserve the option to bail out after 15. Haha!  I'll start on the 1st of the month  :tu:

I have a prior commitment and no Crunch, but I'll be checking in. I'm still up for the Juice challenge in May, too.

This sounds fun! Time to give some attention to my Crunch to show it’s more of a tool and not a toy.

I am on the fence to join  :think:  I don't use the Crunch that much.

Good idea, awlthough I don't use mine much (too awkward)  :dunno:

However, I'm doing the SwissTool thing in May  :ahhh (sorry Rich)

Day 1

April 1


And I fool you not! It’s April 1 17:00 and it’s been a looong day. I wanted to write about how my Knipex Cobra XS was getting more handle time than my Crunch.  I wanted to write about how I used the Crunch in replacing l the garden hose’ faucet adapter which cracked. I wanted to say the Crunch’s philips helped secure the holder of the curtain rods to the wall….but all I have is a glamour picture after getting tired from all the above.  In short, life got in the way….

Day 1

These will accompany the Crunch. Grabbed some common bits to work on my bikes and need some scissors, hence the wave scissors.

I love that 1-sided Charge.  Someday I need to copy that one.

These will accompany the Crunch. Grabbed some common bits to work on my bikes and need some scissors, hence the wave scissors.

Nice combo!  :tu:

Day 1

Here's my companion for 15 or 30 days - a brand new Crunch from Leatherman after they finally restocked. 

To start off, I want to confess that I am not a fan of the Crunch  :pommel:  I like the idea and I love the design, but I don't like how "difficult" it is to deploy the pliers.  Based on what I have read, it gets easier and quicker the more you use it, so that is what I am hoping to accomplish during this challenge.  I'll also need to do something about a pocket clip or suspension clip.   :tu:
