Day 3.
Said earlier on that I thought I had the perfect bead for this challenge.  I had looked for an X1 and had no luck then the pilot in the flightsuit pooped up when I was in the hospital.
My internet was to use the O'Brien for the challenge, but Patch may be the one that gets more time.

Leatherman Tools / Re: All that glitters...

Is that made out of brass?


(Image removed from quote.)

Sorry., I saw the meme but passed over your comment!

No, it's not brass.  It's just stainless with some kind of uber cheap gold coloring on it.  It scratches off pretty easily and you can see the stainless underneath.

I will say however, that I have yet to see something the real Tread could do that these fakes can't.  I'm not trying to promote the knockoffs, but for under $50 vs $200, im not sure if I'd get another Leatherman Tread.... or even reccomend anyone parts with the money for one.  The only actual, functional difference I have noticed is the lack of a carbon insert for the Scriber.

Nice!

Glad to see it is a real Stormtrooper and not one of those silly New Order ones!

The Mod Squad / Re: Sharpening the combo-tool

Did this in 10 mins starting with Dremel cutoff (the bigger one) to remove the bulk material. Smoothed out with a diamond round (not taper or you’ll make ‘scallops’) finished on Spyderco coarse. Angle is approx. 60° and ‘matches’ the Spyderco 30° when held flat/horizontally.

Hope that helps.
