Day 2: Breakfast!  I had to get out the door this morning so it's a quick one.

Nice pic, Barry! :like: :tu: :tu:

Clif Bars are great for a quick snack!  :cheers:

Day 3: Lit a fire with the fire starter.  I took a video of me using the whistle but I couldn't get it to upload  :facepalm:   If the weather cooperates I'll get a fire going with just natural materials.

  Enjoying the Signal and Combo Edge posts.  I have been fiddling around with the serrated edge on my challenge carry.  I'm not sure if I am getting it sharper or not.  Hard to tell.  I have sort-of gotten the rough edges all pointing in the same direction, so that has to be better.  I hope the PA weather will be better this week and maybe you can figure out how to post a video.  Best wishes.  G

I joined you all today by carrying my Signal while I worked around the yard.  Mine is slightly modified, and I used it several times.


While changing security camera batteries...




Sharpening my pruner...




The lawnmower's oil cap was stuck...




Cutting poison for my bait station (I never use my multitools on food)...




Lots of uses when changing out a broken sprinkler.  I even used the awl to clean dried mud out of the threads of a used riser...




Rehanging a privacy trellis...

Outstanding Rich! I miss having a file.  I'm learning minimalist carry with the Signal again.  With the exception of the pliers, this tool set is similar to the Hiker/Trekker toolset.  For what it's designed for, that's spot on.
Edit: I like that blue Signal Rich!

Barry, Gary, Vicman; Good luck on the challenge! :tu:

I just read about it and seeing all the nice pictures reminds me of last year's (my, a year has gone by already :facepalm:). I'll be rooting from the grandstands this time, and hope I can visit the thread more regularly.

Barry, I must admit, I love the color of your SIGNAL.

FORTUNATELY, I am out of country this week and  I am unable to recieved texts to apply confirmation code for two step authentication 😜

But, it seems I maybe destined to obtain something I. That color.  There were two young ladies sporting bathing suits in that same shade near the pool I was relaxing.

Bright and beautiful is best way to describe. Fire or not. 🤩


Damn, photos will not upload!!!  To much detail apparently.
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

Day 5:  Testing the cutters and wire stripper. Cutters are the best in the business and the stripper gets the job done.  Not as good as dedicated wire strippers, but they get the job done.
