does the sd classic alox have...

[ryan1835]

tweezers and a toothpick?

the site  bought from says yes but somewhere else says no :S

i figured here would be the best place to ask

[DaveK]

Nope!

None of the Alox SAKs have them a far as I know.

thats why i bought it for the tooth pick!

oh well excuse to buy another one....

Well, not the mint-from-the-factory Alox SAKs have them... I have saved pictures from a Russian site where someone took a... Pioneer or Soldier one and added slots for for a toothpick and a tweezer on a scale.

Have a look in Felinevet's shop for a Celidor scaled Classic or something - or start a thread here in "Tools Needed". Someone will cut you a good deal I reckon!

I wouldn't mind seeing those

I'll start digging through my folder... bbs. XD

Found it.





All they did was cut out slots on an alox scale and then add a single liner between the scale and the first tool layer to accommodate the two tools.  Of course, I wish the person had also made a pen cut out and figure out a place to neatly slip the pin to while he or she was at it... not that I'm giving the modders here any ideas.

That's a very nice mod  

Some of the older Eco scales lack T&T as well, but my Eco Climber II and Waiter both have them.  

Oh and Like Dave said Alox = no T&T, the new Soldier model, and the new red scaled SAKs based on the Soldier .

That looks pretty cool - thanks Sazabi.

How well do you reckon it would work though? I always thought you needed the elasticity in the Celidor to grip them and hold them in place. I'm wondering now if I can get it to work with wood you see.

I've see it done in wood a good few times so it must be possible.  The tweezers should pretty much hold themselves in place as the arms spring apart and will push against the scale and the liner.  For the toothpick I would guess that you want to make the slot the same size as the main part of the toothpick and rely on the small bump on the flat to cause an interference fit.

That's only an educated guess though.

[DaveK]

That sounds about right! I may try it when I get a chance.
