What did you use your Leatherman for today?

Used my wave in conjunction with a glasses cloth as a case wrench and cotter pin insertion tool for putting new batteries into and resizing the band on a watch I rediscovered from my teenage years

pick head for my disc detainer lock pick

Helped change a 19ft belt on our parcel sorter. We had to feed a metal and plastic wire through the threads to connect it. Had to snip off each end with my Surge wire cutters. Then melted the platic with a solder.

Fun times.

Used Surge and bit kit to open a plexiglass cover to adjust a proximity sensor.

Used the PST to open a usb cable, than used it as something to hold the cable while soldering. Squirt was used for cable trimming.
All the effort to have a PSP usb cable to charge.
Also, i used the Squirt for my Gameboy backlight mod, i have the YT video yet no picture for the forum

Squirt P4: Large slotted SD removed metal switch plate cover so that it could be repaired. Pliers unscrewed window breaker from cheap folder; since they tend to poke, cut and scratch stuff; and the folder wasn't going to be carried for emergency use; and for an around the farm work beater, it would likely never be used to break a window. Awl poked holes in boxed apple pie before microwaving.

Mini Tool (changed clothes, happened to be in pants). Fixed gate latch with pliers.

Today I used the hammer head on my Skeletool to hammer in some loose nails on the back of a cabinet. It proved to be the perfect tool for job.

Excellent! I wish my Surge had the hammer/carabineer

A photoeye was taped down and the adhesive came off. Instead of looking for it, I ziptied it down. Cut the tail end off with my BO Surge.

I made out of some salvaged parts a powerbank. Trusty Squirt was there to help, scissor to trim wires, plier as a tweezer to help while soldering etc.
And afterwards, used the PST to open a Coke, would make a great comercial for both companyes

BadMechanic · **Reply #4371 on:** August 05, 2020, 10:12:39 PM

Used my Brewzer to open an electrical cabinet. Used it in a flat head screwdriver kind of way.

I used the Philips screwdriver tool on a Leatherman K4 to tighten a loose screw on the porch door.

I've cut some rubber pads to hold and insulate my custom made charging cable

. Damn, do i like this oldish consoles.
Ps: cable trim was also made with a LMN

Raoul Octav · **Reply #4376 on:** September 05, 2020, 08:55:36 AM

Another GB resto, and obvious LMN was there

I had to remove the the fridge-freezer and dishwasher today (in advance of replacements tommorow)
The new (to me) Rebar, courtesy of Aloha

helped cut the power cables, to prevent re-use by Darwin award candidates

I then discovered that my fan (we don't really do A/C here in the UK) had died.

The Squirt helped to remove/replace things (fuse etc.) but a non-starter

A double LM sort of day
