Title: Finally Here
Post by: jock1 on September 13, 2007, 04:58:59 PM: Well after a few finanacial disasters which got in the way I finally managed to scrape the cash together for my first Swiss tool and it arrived today!
First order of business was to test the serrated edge on some cardboard boxes Woohoo it went through them like the proverbial hot knife through butter
Second I tested the saw blade on a branch about 1 1/2 inches thick again fantastic results
For my next trick I will finally put up the new gate that was supposed to be done ages ago .No more excuses I ahve some time off and she who must be obeyed >:Dis getting stroppy
I will post pictures of the end result

And, I guarantee you'll quit long before it does!

Well you've got to get a alox farmer, then a 108 safari, then a wenger SI then a spirit, then in honor of pwork and executive ;D

If you need anymore help spending your money just let me know ;)

Post by: jock1 on October 07, 2007, 11:58:31 AM: The answer is yes my opinion has changed I love even more :grin: I am rapidly developing an obsession I have even considered taking it to work with me the only snag is SWMBO loves and has even used it for the odd task around the house
I am considering getting her a Spirit for Christmas but that may not be too good an idea!
