If you have a FrankenGerber then post em up. I had a pile of parts and put this together today. I tried to get the Mr. Pinchy blade to work, but something wasn't right. I was almost positive that it would work better than it did. This is not my ideal tool selection, but I can change it later if I get the tools I want for it. She will be a beater. :tu:

Lost its SE blade for a sog saw.
Made a mini awl out of the small flat head screw'er (is that a viable word?)
(http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/1024x768q90/922/8mWSaS.jpg)
... and later took the needle nose of it to make it more pocketable (alot of the edges was also rounded off but thats boring pictures).

My own FrankenGerber :D All I did was put scissors in and make a flat driver into an awl :tu:

An older pic, but I still use it regularly. lately I've been considering a switch back to a needle nose, but I can't bear to lose my BN pliers either... So I think I'm going to have to make another!

I am guessing that at least 4 gerbers were "franked" into that mp600 :like:
A Diesel (saw), pro scout or MP400 (scissors), a regular stainless BN mp600 (pliers) and a regular black mp600(frame).

It's actually up to 5 now, as that picture is a little outdated. I have since replaced the carbide cutter BN pliers with non-replaceable cutter BN pliers :facepalm:
I'm digging the awl on yours Troels. It started out as a small flathead?

Yes the mini awl is quite easily made from the small flathead (with a file and a wise).

I'm thinking about turning the plain blade into an awl since the MP600 is lacking in the pokie dept.

Steve thats awlsome :tu:
I had a spare blade that I wanted to awl-mod ... but instead i tried to make the blade into a slip joint (for legal carry) by filling on the locking area. Did not work, the blade its totally flying around :bnghd: :bnghd: .... had to try :D ... its very precise work tampering with sliding locks :facepalm: :rofl:

Thanks Troels :cheers:

Merged both threads :cheers:

Kind of a Frankengerber mod... Replaced the lanyard ring on the Multi-Lock Scout with the wood saw from the Diesel... For the time being, the Diesel will hold the extra lanyard ring from the Multi-Lock Scout. Until such time I can figure what other tool to put in it...
Maybe a wood saw from another MT... :facepalm:

Thanks Mags... will need to look for another wood saw donor though... I overgrinded the pivot part where it stops against the handle edge in open position... :cheers:

Mine!
Most donor parts are from a Suspension.

Took a bit of time to grind and align the pliers tip and some reshaping.
(https://i.imgur.com/c2dpp6q.jpg)
One of my favorite tool. The pliers tip was grounded to a very pointed needle nose. It can handle some special task usually a normal "needle nose" can't.
(https://i.imgur.com/ArGoVGm.jpg)
Though pointed, pliers tip doesn't protrude from the frame. :cheers:

My latest configuration
-
I don't think it qualifies as "franken..." or "modded" - but I just now took the best (ie - non broken) parts from an MP600 Needlenose and an MP600 Pro Scout to make a workable tool.
I'm reasonably pleased, as I've ended up with old fashioned NOT carbide cutters, and a selection of blades, scissors and tools, none of which are plain edged, and don't have that mostly questionable use of real estate - the lanyard loop.
I don't mind a great deal about extra blades, but I guess there is a bit of satisfaction in not having an extra PE blade that I am unlikely to use....
the only downside is that the Serrated blade has the nail notch on the wrong side now...
-
My FrankenGerber...
I took an old MP600 BO, sanded/polished/notched the side of the frame, recontoured the plier head, added a pocket clip, and threw in tools from the MP600 BO, eFect, Suspension, and Suspension NXT using hardware from an MP700 Urban Legend. I had one more spot left, so I drilled out the Simonds file from a Version 5 Multi-Plier and reshaped the pivot a bit.

Thread Necro :ahhh
Another MP600 mod. Replaced the needle nose pliers, light bolts, added saw holder from the Pro Scout and the wood saw from a SOG tool. Also tried to add a pocket clip from the Paraframe, but I did not like the result. More brainstorming needed i guess :think:
