Day 3

Used the spear point model today.

A bit of screwdriver work to replace smoke detectors. We had the fancy nest ones but they don’t connect anymore and it’s constant searching drains the battery. So, back to the basic ones.

Thanks, Comis. It’s not likely to be a complete list and I really only remember if I can get a photo. After MrTJ’s and your comments I remembered this morning that yesterday I cut out a couple of roots from some invasive vine on our giant maple. Forgot all about it. That’s the great thing about having the spirit I can just take care of whatever task straightaway without thinking about it.

Day 4: Used the wire stripper to cut a small sapling from our maple tree.  It worked, but I'll use the saw next time.  :facepalm:

Day 4

Switched to the MXBS today. Had to try and repair a stuck door knobs mechanism. Used the Phillips and both flat drivers to take the old parts off and clean with WD40. While it is better, it still is not perfect and I think I am going to need to buy a new one.  Will see over the next day or so if it improves with WD40 soaking in more. If not will be more pics and maybe a different variant in use with a replacement. The Spirit did a great job with all aspects of this repair/attempted repair.

*Day 5*

Used the rescue blade to cut open a blister pack for batteries, surprisingly, it didn't feel as sharp as the smooth blade, and I do need to exert some effort to saw open the pack.

Day 4: Used the wire stripper to cut a small sapling from our maple tree.  It worked, but I'll use the saw next time.  :facepalm:
Pretty creative use!

Day 4

Switched to the MXBS today. Had to try and repair a stuck door knobs mechanism. Used the Phillips and both flat drivers to take the old parts off and clean with WD40. While it is better, it still is not perfect and I think I am going to need to buy a new one.  Will see over the next day or so if it improves with WD40 soaking in more. If not will be more pics and maybe a different variant in use with a replacement. The Spirit did a great job with all aspects of this repair/attempted repair.
Good use!

Day 4

The MX Clip helped with prepping veggies for a batch of chili, but most of the work was done by my Victorinox chef's knife.

(Image removed from quote.)
As a knife enthusiast, I am definitely way behind the curve in terms of culinary tools.  I don't mind repairing all the chips/warp/dent for all the kitchen knives, but over the years, I definitely spend only very little on culinary knives.  Knowing Vic steel, I bet they made great kitchen knives.

The two most-used knives in my kitchen are Victorinox, and they're the best stainless kitchen knives I've owned.  7.7403.20G and 6.8520.17G

I have a handful of carbon knives, Ontario and Boker, that are great as well.

Thanks Comis!  I've done it regularly with my Opinels, but I didn't have the leverage to do it  well with the Spirit.
