I bet you've got another week in you, Poncho! :tu: Great photos from both you and Rich, too.

Day 8

Went to the wood pile, grabbed a piece of branch, and commenced to sawing. The Juice saw is at least on par with SAK saws. It may even be better. The downside: the nail nick (at least on the Pro) is a bugger to get at.

Great pic and use,  Farmer :like: Just be careful as the Juice saws are thinner and I have seen people bend them :ahhh

Everyone is going for 15 days or beyond...  :woohoo:

I used my S2 today to open up my HVAC to detect a leak. Not from the usual drain this time. Had to stop and start working so mystery still unsolved.

I will be doubling that.

Thanks a lot for making me want a Juice Pro now.
You're welcome! The trick seems to be finding a good one at a sane price.

Day 9

The Pro made some friends today.

Nice pic' FX  :tu: and I agree with the price issue for the Pro (even my solitary CS4 is stupidly expensive now  :ahhh)
They don't like it up 'em!

Day 9

Very light duty today, cutting thin plastic wrapping... but I'm opening a lot of boxes and it makes it go so much easier.

Day 10 of ?

CS4 again and you gotta love the scissors of the Juice series :dd: why they don't use this design more is beyond me :dunno: and probably why the S2 is so popular and commands a high price  :think: :salute:

I still need to give the scissors a good go on paracord. But I certainly can see the scissors driving prices up...the S2 I was watching recently sold for about $66.

Day 10

Gave the file another test. This time I took both sides of it to the stand for a Metal Earth 747 that was involved in a hull-loss incident (thanks to a cat). No file bites this time!

I envy people like you that are able to assemble those little metal models.  My hands start to shake like a heroin addict whenever I try to do delicate work like that,  Nice work  :tu:

Day 10

In MTO challenge lingo, I had a "fail" today.  I normally don't use multitool scissors because in most cases, a blade can do the job just as well.  One of the few things that I can't do with a blade is cut my finger nails.  For this, I normally carry a Micra or sometimes a SAK.  Today I tried cutting my nails with the Juice scissors, and it was just way too difficult. I had to do the job with my Micra.

 :iagree: about the scissors. I have been entertaining the idea of tearing down my CS3 and using the scissors in another tool. The only thing holding me back is that I think they have been retired.

I have found that the Juice scissors are not good for tough materials. Though I did not test on fingernails, I am not surprised they did not work well for you in that way.

Nice work  :tu:
Thanks! I will add that assembly is much easier when you have the proper tools.

Day 10 bonus

Soon I will be installing a ceiling fan (Adam, if you're reading, feel free to share tips and tricks for wiring it). With some help from the Pro and Sophie (her idea of "help" was playing with the lanyard), I removed the dust cover from the junction box so I could have a look at the mounting hardware. No anchors, thank God! Sophie didn't want to be in the pictures.

Day 11 of ?

Have the corkscrew and opener out today :cheers: The corkscrew holds the Vic Mini driver wonderfully (as I was told it would earlier in this thread  ;) :cheers: :like: )

I rarely if ever use these tools and would have love to had a diamond file in place of this :dd: but it is there and does have its uses for many :cheers:

The corkscrew has no use for me too but I do use the can opener whenever we go on a road trip and need to open condensed milk cans for coffee. I prefer the wave/charge style can opener but this gets the job done too.

Not anticipating any photo-worthy uses today, so the Pro is just hanging around.
