The torch I won during the 10th anniversary give aways, and my flexible grabber tool, to retrieve the cap off my windscreen washer bottle.  It popped off when i opened it to fill it and dropped down into the engine compartment where I couldn't reach it.

The grounds keeper at a neighboring church was having trouble fitting pieces of an aluminum downspout together.  I used the pliers portion of a Crescent Toolzall to bend the ends so they fit inside one another.

Swiss Champ got some work today- sharpened a carpenter's pencil with the small blade, used the tweezers to pull a staple out of some rolled felt, and used the magnifying glass to examine rock "fossils" on a hike with my 3-year old!

Ahh- also used the scissors to cut strips of rolled felt to line the jaws of my 3-inch vice. I'm going to use the vice to put translucent Plus scales on my Explorer later this week!

Hey guys, spent the last month moving, packing, cleaning/repairing and now unpacking, finally got my computer unpacked and my wireless dongle arrived today so I can post/surf again.

But I could not find a can opener and was making mac & cheese in a crock pot and recipe calls for a can of evaporated milk,  so I used my vic Spartan 2 to get can opened.

Also used the hell out of my wave past 2 weeks from removing staples from wall to cutting, scissors, screwdriver you name it, came in very handy during the move  :salute: Leatheman

SOG Sync I to make an adjustment to my stove and to my new cheapo toasting plate.  Plate worked great, but the handle gets to about a million degrees as my finger can attest to

LM Crunch to aid in the replacement of a reflector on my little camping trailer



It's been a great little trailer. It's done at least 10,000 miles now. New wheel bearings in it last year as one was getting noisy, and just tyres as they wear out. It's paid for itself many times over

Swiss Champ main blade got some use cutting off the very few yellowing branches on my tomato plants. Now just waiting patiently for harvest!

Not exactly what I did with my MT but what I did to it... disassembled it for detailed cleaning... Had this secondhand Skeletool for quite some time now... only just had the time to clean it up from rust and years of grime...



Soaked it in rust removal solution for a few hours... and scrubbed it with steel wool...


And assembled again...


Also managed to put some metal finish on the bits too...
