Although I didn’t technically use it, I loaned my Sidekick to a friend to repair his music stand when we were playing today. He used the pliers to remove the rivet on one of the leg supports and then the Phillips head driver to tighten a screw and nut. Didn’t miss a beat.

 :think:

I have on multiple occasions thought to, and then promptly dismiss the idea of using my MT as a doorstop.

That’s a old piece of kit. Massive step-down transformer.

...Must be heavy?
Just right to whack your P4 pivot...  :pok:

So, my old soldering iron is working. P2 and T4 were there to help. P2 helped me today a lot, while cuting some bolts to dimension. I also used the file to level out the two contacts, gets the job done yet wave file was missed.

Used the can opener. Though you can live without it, it is easier to use when you need it
Don't know about you, yet here in EU we have to stay at home and the situation is serious.
Stay safe and keeo your multitool near you
