Another Nube says hello
on: April 05, 2009, 03:13:49 PM
Greetings from Michigan. 

I stumbled across this place when looking for info about a co-worker's new Leatherman Surge. 

I have had a PST II and an Auto Tool for years.  I have taken the PST II with me on many motorcycle trips and always have the Auto Tool with me in the car.  I also have a freebie multi-tool that I find quite handy to use around the office.

As I know nothing is real without pics, here are some quick and dirty shots of my tools.

So, what is the story on the AutoTool?  I've had it for a few years and like it.  It is complete and looks and works great. I just use it as a tool when I need it.

Is it rare?  Sought after? 

My CB400f was a 1976.  I sold it a few years ago.  Here is a picture of my bike.
